Pet care experience

I'm here to help support your pets!

I specialize in senior dogs and reactive pets. My own dog is a reactive rescue dog for whom I have cared for for 5 years to date. I am especially good with dealing with reactive dogs that are fearful or do not do well with other dogs, and will always find a way to get a pet to take it's medicine.

Safety, trust & environment

Creating a space in which both you and your pet are comfortable is absolutely paramount. With my own dog, I am accustomed to taking her on 3-4 long walks in the woods each day and feeding her in the morning and early evening. Each pet is singular, so I typically request a short informational meeting or phone call with the caretaker prior to sitting so that I can ensure maximum comfort and ease for both you and your pet.

Stephen is the biggest animal lover I know! I have seen the care he gives to every animal (of every size and reactivity level) over the last decade and am always impressed. He cares for every pet like it’s his own beloved dog. He loves to take pups for long walks and show them the best time. I’ve never seen a dog or cat that doesn’t immediately bond with Stephen!
