I love dogs and helping people.

Pet care experience

I tend to get along very well with all types and kinds of dogs. I trained my previous dog to sit, stay, and play fetch. I’m currently working remote Mondays and Wednesdays which allows me to have plenty of time to care for and play with your dog. I’m available on most weekends, and long holidays. I will walk, play, and care for your dog as if it were mine. I am rather close to vancourtlant park where we can play and go for long walks.

Stephen was great - loving, caring and responsible as he looked after our senior pet. Super reasonable, helpful and responsive.

Stephen V. was great with Charlie. He understood six month old puppies who are not small! Appreciated his flexibility and willingness to work with scheduling. I will definitely be calling him in the future!

So lucky to have Stephen nearby when we have to leave our old cranky Frenchie! He takes such great care of him

Stephen did great with my little Jupiter. He’s punctual, communicates well, and has an obvious love for animals. Would recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I tend to keep a pet safe home. All things that a pup can get into that are low are placed on high storage. When out on walks (even if friendly) I tend to keep pups away from other pups. I tend to keep it on a one-on-one basis. No strangers petting, or other pups playing.
