60 repeat pet parents
100% response rate
Usually responds in a few minutes
100% bookings with photo updates

20 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

My visits start with me first making sure all food, water, medical, and sanitary needs are met and then interacting with your pet on their terms. Whether they like to play, prefer to be left alone, or just need someone to be around so that they are not lonely while you are away. I strive to end every visit with your pet satisfied.

Information Steven P. would like to know about your pet

I'm more than happy to take care of any medical needs your pet may have. I've got experience in giving oral medication for cats and dogs and I'm eager to learn any new pet care technique or skills so don't be afraid to ask me to perform any procedure your pet may need.

A typical day

My most popular pet activity according to the pets themselves is the administration of petting. Whatever the type of animal if they desire affection then that is what they shall receive. Running off energy is another specialty of mine and something I always look to take advantage of, a well behaved pet is an exhausted pet I often find.

Care is both physical and emotional

Pet care experience

My house has never been without at least 3 pets at any time over the course of my life. From an early age I was responsible for their care as my parents would often go on trips out of state. I've cared for multiple dogs, cats, and birds as well as guinea pigs and iguanas. Attending to each of their unique needs in terms of care and companionship.

Roxy & Sterling love when Steven comes to visit. They had the best weekend and I could tell they were happy and full of treats from all of the updates and photos we got!

Steven is always great with my three cats. This time he also took on the responsibility of giving one cat a prescribed medicine. He is the one I contact when I need cat care!

Steven is the absolute best!!! I’m so glad to have found someone that is so great with our very large dogs who most people would be intimidated by. He always goes above and beyond to make sure our dogs are happy and well cared for and that’s such a relief! I could not recommend Steven more highly!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
