Steven was great in taking care of our boy for 2 nights! Pictures seemed to make the dog seem happy, and he followed our instructions well. Would recommend and use again

Steven recently cared for Ms. Coco, our senior dachshund, and did a fantastic job. Through photos and videos we could tell that Coco was well cared for and and was enjoying her own vacation. Steven was easy to communicate with, followed Coco's care instructions, and clearly really loves dogs. I would not hesitate to recommend or use Steven again.

Steven was great with our French bulldog. He took our care concerns to heart and helped our guy stay safe in his care.

Schedule

I work full time at home on weekdays so i’ll be able to give your pet full attention and all the potty breaks they need. Walks are usually done in Franklin park or around Jamaica pond. I’ll be taking hundreds of photos of your dog during their stay so they’re available upon request.

Safety, trust & environment

My schedule on weekdays are lax. I’ll take dogs out for however many potty breaks they need and usually do one 30-60 min walk with all the dogs a day. I don’t have any equipment to divide dogs in the house so if your dog has behavioral issues with other dogs just let me know so I can avoid double booking on a day.

A typical day

I usually like to reserve a portion of their daily meals as treats in order to reinforce tricks and training. My house is right across from Franklin Park, a popular spot for dog walking, so your dog will get to meet a lot of new friends on their walks.

I typically ask for your dog's diet needs, medical needs, and any behavioral issues/quirks to keep note of. For example knowing of a dog's issue with chewing ahead of time will allow me to prep my house so there's nothing to chew within dog height.
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.
