Safety, trust & environment

I believe pets thrive when they’re given both attention and healthy outlets for their energy. For dogs, I enjoy taking them on walks, park visits, and play sessions tailored to their comfort level and their owner’s preferences. If appropriate and approved, I’m comfortable supervising off leash time in safe fenced areas or open parks with well behaved pets. For cats, I make sure they receive patience, affection, and interactive play time so they stay stimulated, relaxed, and comfortable while their owner is away. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, cared for, and well rested by the time their family returns home.

Confident Caring Pet Pro

Pet care experience

As a calm and dependable caregiver, I’ve successfully helped two Chihuahuas and an Australian Blue Heeler peacefully coexist in one home. If I can manage that dynamic with patience, care, and consistency, your pet will be in great hands.

I can whole heartedly recommend Stephen to care for your animal companion. My cat Phoebe has been under his care on a dozen occasions, sometimes for as long as two weeks. He sends me photos and videos of them playing together or hanging out. She adores him. Steph is conscientious and kind and will care for your special guy or girl as if they were his own!

I have left my dog with Stephen on multiple occasions. I have a large golden retriever and he did a good job making sure my boy got plenty of exercise, attention, and grooming as needed. Stephen sent me regular pictures and updates if he had any questions.
