Pet care experience

I've lived with dogs for the last 12 years of my life and have fostered lost dogs at multiple times in my life, and currently have a husky puppy I've raised since birth. I can offer basic training using the Victoria Stillwell methods of positive reinforcement, using patience and love over intimidation to get results I need. Your dog will be in great care with one other happy dogs who lives in the house.

My dog Ciel had a blast. I especially love that he came back tired. Great communication. We will definitely be back.

Stephen is a wonderful petsitter who takes excellent care of my fur baby. I have an anxious pup who doesn’t do well with strangers so it was hard finding the perfect petsitter but Stephen was super patient with him and is an expert with dogs so I felt comfortable and trusted leaving my fur baby for him to take care of. He understands animals and their needs. Also, was always updating me on how my pup was doing. I would not hesitate to recommend him as a pet sitter!

Information Stephen M. would like to know about your pet

Your dog should be fine with other dogs, and not have food aggression issues if their feeding schedule is different from my dog's. Your dog should not be destructive, as any damage caused by the dog will be added to the bill.

A typical day

There are fun nature trails in my area as well as the river, and a dog park is a 5 minute drive downtown if they are socially prepared.
