I work during the day at a school, so I’m mostly free outside of school hours. I am also off work during school holidays. I do have some evening and weekend activities, but I still have plenty of time to take care of pets.

About Steven R.
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Routines are very important for animals, so I will do what is needed to keep those routines in place and make them feel happy in their own home. As long as I know what the expectations are, we are good to go!
Information Steven R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pets have any special needs or expectations. I like to have very clear directions about their day-to-day activities. For example, specific feeding times, how medications are administered, certain playtime activities, etc.
A typical day
I enjoy walking, and taking a dog with me is always a plus! I love to play with cats and dogs and will pay attention to their needs about attention, feeding, and everything else.

Pet care experience
My family has had pets my whole life, and I spent a lot of time taking care of them. I’ve always had an ability to connect with animals of all sizes (and attitudes)! One of my strongest suits when meeting a new cat or dog is to evaluate and understand their own specific body language. They can tell us what they need, we just have to listen! I know some pets take a little longer to feel comfortable around a new human, and I always give them the space and patience that they need.
Cat care experience
Steven also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Steve has always been active in caring for and spending time with our family's dogs and cats. Not only does he love animals, they seem to innately trust him. There have been times when friends have told us that a particular pet is "afraid of men" or "cautious around strangers," and these animals always end up allowing him to spend time near them, often petting them. Even if your pet is skittish, scared or stubborn, he will be a wonderful sitter for them. In addition, he is very conscientious and careful, and I know he would stick closely to pets' schedules, if requested to do that.
