Information Steven R. would like to know about your pet

I always ask a few questions before I sit a dog. 1) Is your dog allergic to anything? 2) what does your dog most like to do? Doeshe/she have a favorite toy? 3) how do you discipline your dog when it is needed?

A typical day

We will go on walks around Green Lake, play fetch, play hide & Seek inside (I hide a toy filled with peanut butter and your pooch is tasked to find it.)

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Steve and I'm a professional canine obedience instructor. My family breeds and trains Rhodesian Ridgebacks as service animals. Let your pooch have an awesome time learning a new trick or playing awesome doggie games, enriching their mind and sharpening their intellect. Did you know that dogs relieve stress by exercising? Most breeds of dog need at least an hour of strenuous physical activity per day to effectively relieve stress. Dogs experience stress similar to humans. Seperation anxiety, social anxiety and other stress can lead to fido misbehaving, testing the pact leader for dominance or other unwanted and often disruptive behavior. Let me take your pooch for a walk and run them, getting them the much needed physical activity they need really need.

Steven was very kind and communicative! He also gave me some great advice with my dog Meeko! His dog Nipsey is very sweet and she and Meeko got along well! I’ll definitely reach out to Steven again in the future! I recommend Steven.

Steven was great with our Pittmix! He was very communicative and flexible with our schedule when we decided to come back a little earlier than we planned. We could definitely tell he knows how to handle many different pup behaviors and gave our Willie lots of love, enrichment, and exercise. Thank you, Steven!

Very pleased with Steven. My dogs were well cared for and I got updates very regularly. I will go to him again. Bonus: Nipsey Hussle is the sweetest guy.
