Loving, reliable and very friendly!

Pet care experience

I have over 18 years of experience caring for dogs. In this time, I have developed a strong and friendly bond with dogs. My experience includes caring for breeds that include: an Akita, a labrador, 2 different mix-breed rescues, a lab/retriever/shar-pei mix and a New Foundland. I am a fairly active person, so I enjoy going on walks/runs and playing fetch. When I am not caring for dogs through Rover.com, I watch over my roommates 2 cats and occasionally look after my friends' pets.

Steven puppy sat our 9 week old puppy and was great. He was incredibly caring and sent us pictures while we were gone. I would definitely recommend and use Stephen again.

Stephen was beyond WONDERFUL for Tugboat and my dad's dog. He kept in constant communication with me and ensured that my dog was the one thing I didn't need to worry about during this stressful time of my father having heart surgery and me being away. He was so great I have already scheduled multiple overnight stays for him and Tugboat. It is such a relief to have a trustworthy, reliable person to stay with Tugboat when I can't be here.

I had to leave my Siberian Husky for a few days and my usual sitter was unavailable. I was nervous booking with someone I didn't know, but Stephen was great! He is a very conscientious sitter, he was polite and quick in all his responses. He paid close attention to the instructions I left. He also sent regular updates during his stay and pictures of Osiris. I was able to enjoy my trip when it was clear that Osiris was having a good time and was well taken care of. I will definitely book with Stephen again.
