Your furbaby's vacation home

Pet care experience

I’ve been a pet owner my whole life being exposed to all kinds of critters from dogs and cats to rabbits and tortoises. I spent 4 years working in a dog boarding facility where I honed my dog walking and caring abilities. I go on long walks and runs with the pups and can give medicine to our older fur friends. If it’s related to caring for pets, I’ve done it! I’ve pet/house sat off and on for the last 8 years, so I know how to best care for you fur family and your home. I always try to give the pets a little grooming while they're with me and will tidy your home while you're away!

Steven is so lovely with our 2 dogs and cat. They all love him. He’s very responsible and did a great job taking care of them and giving plenty of love and attention. Highly recommend!!

Steven was great with our dog Maverick. We highly recommend him and will definitely use his services again.

The safe and loving care was so appreciated. Daily updates and reach out for care guidance was reassuring . Steven is especially good with older dogs and their special needs.

Steven showed up on time and even cleaned up a bit of a mess my dogs had made! Will definitely book again when I need a drop in!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a big open back yard for your pups to play in and close dog parks for unbridled fun. I don’t currently have any pets of my own so yours will be safe from others and get all my love and attention. I do have a two story townhouse but can help any older fur friends up the stairs as needed or can crate easily on the first floor. I keep my home nice and clean and am happy to clean/tidy up while a guest in others homes. I always leave places cleaner than I found them!

Information Steven F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any special needs such as medication, dietary restrictions, or age-related ailments. This helps me best prepare for their visit to make sure they have the best visit possible

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dog's mentally and physically. We'll do this with long walks to the local dog park to play fetch and play on the agility course. On nice days I take the pups to a larger local dog park where they'll get to run around a huge fenced in area and play fetch there too! When we're at home I'll always prioritize engaging with the pups either through petting, brushing, or hiding some treats for them to find.

I am currently working part time in the mornings and am only seconds away from home. I can stop by on breaks to go for short potty breaks or for a quick play/cuddle. I give longer walks before leaving to ensure my guests are comfort while I’m away and follow up with a walk after I get back. I have most weekends off and can accommodate all day comfort those day.
