Your Pet’s Home Away From Home

Hello! I’m Steven and have 12+ years of taking care of dogs and cats as well as babysitting pets for friends and family whenever they are out of town. I have also fostered several dogs when I’ve had the chance. I have a house with a fenced yard. I also work from home so your pet won’t have to ever be on their own. My dogs are super friendly and love making new friends.

There are some people who simply do a job, and then there are people who leave a lasting mark on your heart. Steven is one of those rare people. Our girls are not just pets—they are our family. They have been with us through some of the most important years of our lives, and now that they are older, they need extra patience, extra care, and an incredible amount of love. Leaving them behind is never easy, and trusting someone else with them felt almost impossible. From the moment Steven cared for them, we knew they were in the hands of someone truly special. He didn’t just feed them or let them outside; he loved them. You could see it in the way he interacted with them, the gentleness he showed, the patience he had, and the way he treated them with dignity and compassion. He took the time to understand their routines, their personalities, and the little things that come with caring for aging dogs. The fact that he even stopped by in the middle of the day just to check on them, without being asked, is something we will never forget. What surprised us most was how quickly he became more than just a pet sitter. For someone we had only known for a short period of time, he felt like a friend we had known for years. There was a comfort, kindness, and sincerity about him that is incredibly rare. He gave us complete peace of mind while we were away, and that is one of the greatest gifts anyone can give a pet owner. If you are looking for someone to care for your animals, I cannot recommend Steven highly enough. He is dependable, thoughtful, compassionate, and genuinely has a heart for animals. We are endlessly grateful for the love he gave our girls, and we will always remember the care he showed them during a time when they needed it most. Thank you, Steven, for treating our family like your own. We will never be able to fully express how much that meant to us.

Steven is a great, responsible, loving pet parent. He has 4 dogs and a cat that he has adopted and loved like his own children for the last decade. I know that he has fostered somewhere around 10 animals during that some time period. You couldn't find a better pet sitter if you tried.
