Responsible, fun, & positive!

Pet care experience

I grew up my whole life with dogs. I know how to train dogs to the owner's/parent's preference. I only use positive reinforcement to lead and train dogs. If you show a dog love they will give you twice the love back. I have 5 open bedrooms and 2 living rooms for dogs to roam. I also have a backyard and tons of areas to walk. A little about me, I am the youngest person ever to receive the President's Lifetime Achievement Award from Barack Obama for my volunteer service work at age 33. There are not dumb or mean dogs, the dogs just need to be in the proper environment and be shown leadership while always be positive. I am available anytime, my schedule is very flexible.

Steve was wonderful with our Maddie. He took her to the nearby dog park for her exercise so she was in a safe place in a new neighborhood. He also had his own dog, Luna, who was Maddie’s best chum during her stay, Medication was given and Steve even went and got her more when it ran out. All in all, I’d give Steve an extra star if I could.

Steve was absolutely incredible. It was more than I could’ve asked for to take care of my little girl. My girl even had an issue where she had to be taken to the vet and Steve handled everything for me. He was a phenomenal host and I will use again!! Thank you for everything Steve!

Steve was great with Jax. I contacted Steve last minute to take Jax for 2 days and he was nothing but accommodating. Before I left from dropping Jax off Steve had already had him outside for a walk which he loves so much. When I arrived to pick Jax up Steve had shown him some tricks which I thought was awesome, he also had him more controlled on the leash. I highly recommend Steve he was professional and kind to my furry son.

Information Steve P. would like to know about your pet

I would want to know if they ever attacked someone or another dog. Is the dog good with other dogs or no they have to be in their own room. I do not put dogs in crates. If certain things scare them. If they want training, what behavior would you like to see.

A typical day

I love to take long walks to the park and around town. There is a nice river to walk near by in the park. Great place for dogs.
