Pet care experience

Reliable. Active. Attentive.

Reliable, active, and detail-oriented sitter who treats your dog like my own, not like a side gig. I’m big on consistency, structure, and clear communication. Walks happen on time, feeding instructions are followed exactly, and you’ll always get updates with photos so you know your dog is good. I’m comfortable with high-energy dogs, longer walks, and sticking to routines, especially for dogs that do best with structure.

Dog Walking • Apr 03, 2026

Steven was fantastic! As a first-time dog owner, I’ve never left my puppy alone or with anyone else until now, so this was a big step for me. I’m so grateful to have found someone I (and Moose!) trust and feel comfortable with. He took great care of Moose, and it definitely showed - Moose is happy and completely worn out after the day. Thank you for taking such good care of him!

Stavros was the best dog walker we have ever had! Holly was absolutely overjoyed when he would come over to play/walk her. She was in her best shape after we hired Stavros. He took her to many different parks and she was always exhausted after they would hang out. If you have a high energy dog or need someone to keep your dog in shape Stavros is your guy!

Stavros is one of Bella’s favorite people ever. He is always willing to run laps with her and takes her to get her favorite treats.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work nights, so my days are open and structured, which lets me prioritize walks, feedings, and check-ins at consistent times. I plan my schedule around each dog’s routine to keep things predictable and stress-free for them. I’m active during the day, so longer walks or higher-energy dogs aren’t an issue, and I build in time for updates so owners always know how things are going. Consistency and reliability are a big part of how I run my day, and pet care fits right into that.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every home and pet with respect and structure. I follow instructions exactly, keep doors secured, leashes on, and routines consistent. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm energy so your dog feels comfortable and secure at all times.

A typical day

A typical day includes structured walks, play, and downtime based on your dog’s energy level. We’ll get outside for exercise, mental stimulation through sniffing and engagement, then proper rest. I stick to routines and adjust based on your dog’s needs.

I like to know feeding routines, walking preferences, energy level, triggers, medical needs, and any behavioral quirks. The more I know upfront, the better care I can provide and the smoother the experience is for your dog.
