Your Pet’s Second Favorite Human

Hi, I’m Steven and someone who understands how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your pet. My goal is simple: to make your pet’s day (and your life) a little happier and less stressful. Why Pet Parents Trust Me - Reliable & Attentive You can always count on me to show up on time, follow your instructions closely, and treat your home and pet with respect. I pay attention to the small details — from their favorite toy to their feeding routine. - Patient & Caring Being a parent has taught me patience, empathy, and structure. I bring that same energy to every animal I care for, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable — whether we’re out for a walk or winding down after playtime. - Clear Communication I’ll send you updates, photos, and quick notes so you always know how your pet is doing. I want you to feel connected, even while you’re away. 🐕 What I Offer I’m available for: Drop-ins and dog walking House sitting and boarding Day care for dogs and cats Whether your pet needs active playtime or someone to stick to their routine, I’ll make sure they’re cared for like family.

Boarding • Jul 03, 2026

April had a great stay with Steven! He was very understanding of her needs and behaviors. We received updates and photos from him which were very helpful. Will definitely rebook when needed!

House Sitting • Nov 18, 2025

Steven did a great job housesitting for our pets. He was responsive, communicative, sent pictures, asked questions, and stayed in touch with us. It was the first time we used him, and it was a last-minute request so we were more than grateful for his excellent service. We will definitely be working with him again.

Doggy Day Care • Feb 21, 2020

Steve is a great host! We appreciated that he gave us several updates throughout the day and took looking after our puppy very seriously. He also filled out a report card at the end of our puppy’s day cere visit with pictures and how many times he went to the bathroom, which we greatly appreciated. He is very professional and looked after our puppy as if he was his own. We will definitely go with Steven again!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I follow your routines closely to make sure everything feels familiar and stress-free. I pay close attention to details—whether it’s feeding times, medication, or preferred walking routes—and will always treat your home and pets with respect and care.

A typical day

My typical ideal day is balanced with walks, playtime, and relaxation. I can tailor the routine to your pet’s needs—whether they love exploring, lounging, or just hanging out. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands.

I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs, including those who require medication, extra attention, or a gentler pace. I take the time to understand each pet’s specific needs and follow your instructions closely to make sure they stay comfortable, safe, and cared for at all times.
