Student Athlete ready to dog sit

Pet care experience

I have experience with Hunting Dogs ( ie German Shorthairs, Labs, and Vizslas), German Shepherds, Boxers, and Frenchies. My frenchy has had extensive medical trouble due to the breed, so I’m very capable of taking care of a puppy that has specific medical problems.

Steve did an incredible job watching my 3.5 month old puppy. He was prompt, kind, very communicative, sent photos/updates, asked questions to make sure he knew how I wanted her to be cared for, and worked on some training/tricks with her. He even left my house in way better shape than I had given it to him in. He bathed my pup and cleaned the bath and did laundry to clean the towel he used for her, did the dishes and cleaned my very dirty floors, and cleaned up the giant mess of stuff I had piled on my kitchen table. The only reason I would not want to recommend him is so that he’ll always be available when I need help - I will definitely use Steve again!

I cannot say enough good things about Steve. Not only is he communicative and responsive, he’s incredibly respectful of all dog routines and rules and of your home. He asked questions whenever he was unsure, and he took GREAT care of our two dogs - a rambunctious Rottweiler and a bouncy Malinois - both under 2 years old so they are a legit handful. I would recommend Steve to ANYONE who wants peace of mind when they go out of town. Your pups are in great hands and will be tired and happy when you get home!!!

Steve was nothing short of amazing. He was super communicative and was super helpful. Would absolutely ask him to watch my pups again.

Safety, trust & environment

Very important, I will not watch dogs that are aggressive in any fashion, if I have a chance to get bit by your dog, I will refuse service. I cannot care for your puppy at my own home, but I’m more than willing and capable to care for it at the client’s home. I will sit with your dog and monitor it at all times while inside the home, I will clean up any poop that happens on my watch as well as any as other excrement I find, and in the unlikely event, I will clean up any accidents inside the house. Your dog will be in great hands with me and so will the home it resides in.

Information Steve S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know any quirks about the dog so I can make sure it is very comfortable under my watch. I’d also like to know at what times I should feed it, take it to go outside for the bathroom, and anything else to keep the doggy’s schedule nice and normal.

A typical day

I will make sure your dog is properly fed, exercised, and cared for under watchful and disciplined supervision. It will feel like it’s in heaven under my care.
