Your pup deserves a vacation too!

Pet care experience

My first house sit was when I was 14, I've grown up around animals my whole life and feel really comfortable with them. I've worked with high energy dogs, my family has 2 heelers! and I grew up with a golden retriever and a German shepherd. I've gotten to travel around the world spending time with all sorts of animals. Dogs, Cats, Chickens, bunnies, Goats, you name it.

Steven is such a trustworthy and friendly sittter. He gained immediate trust with us and our dog. He took our dog on a nice walk along the beach and even sent us photos during our time away. This was our first experience with Rover and had the most pleasant experience because of Steven. We look forward to having Steven take care of our dog again.

Decided to go with Steven again to watch Olaf and the house for a last minute sit! He made an exception and booked us the day before we had to go --- which we are super grateful for. Can't recommend him enough. Thank you!!

I'm so happy I chose Steven to look after Olaf while I was away—it was the best decision. He was on point with Olaf's medicine and ensured he was more than just fed and walked. The daily photos kept me connected and reassured that Olaf was enjoying his own little vacation. Came back to a very cheerful dog, which says it all. The house was just as clean as when I left. Really glad I went with Steven, much better than boarding. Highly recommend!

Steven took excellent care of our fur baby Harley! He sent us daily updates and pictures. He was quick to respond to all of our messages regarding house-related business. We returned to a clean home and happy dog! It is great knowing we found someone who is trustworthy and dependable. We will definitely be using him again the next time we travel.

I work as a Photogrpaher I typically have just 1 or 2 shoots per day! This means the rest of the day I'm getting to spend with the animals I'm caring for. I love going for walks along the beach, adventures though parks and wooded areas, and also going to dog parks! My schedule is ideal for families going on longer vacations needing care for their animals and home.
