Pet care experience

knows what your breed needs

I have actively been taking care of dogs since I was a teenager, and in doing so I have worked with a variety of breeds, sizes, and dog of different ages. My manner of minding focuses on building a connection with the dog while uniquely understanding the breed and the specific needs they may need met. I'm very active and thus great with dogs who are looking to get in shape or have high energy levels. I have experience working with dogs who have been abused or neglected and re-socialising them. My home is large enough for multiple dogs of many sizes to be comfortable in as well as a short walk away from multiple parks. Both mornings as well nights are currently available Monday-Sunday.

House Sitting • Oct 13, 2025

No communication during the stay regarding the dogs,my house was left a mess ( dirty dishes, pans and and grease left on stove) food was eaten and not replaced and uncertain if my dogs had the walks they needed. Not super happy, Steven is a nice guy I’m not sure if he understood house sitting expectations

Steven is great! He’s friendly and our dogs couldn’t have been happier and more well taken care of when we got home. He was quick to take our sitting job in a pinch and we look forward to having him hang with our dogs again in the future!

Steven was very communicative and flexible. Charlie was relaxed with him. I hope to have the chance to use Steven again.

Steven was so wonderful with my dog! When I picked him up my dog was relaxed, happy, and not anxious at all! Can’t say enough to recommend him!

Steven is great with our two pups Nina and Hilary. My partner and I frequently travel so Steven is a lifesaver when we need someone to take care of our girls. Highly recommended!
