Pet care experience

Dogs > people

I have had dogs for over 30 years. From border collies, Rottweilers, pit bulls, Australian cattle/Sheppard and various other breeds. While I am new to rover, I am not new to caring for dogs. I have had many friends entrust me with their dogs for days to weeks at a time. My wife and I currently have a 30 lbs mix breed named Riley. She loves walks on the beach and playing with other dogs. I have a large fenced in back yard that is perfect for dogs to run and play in. I also live in a quiet neighborhood with wooded trails near by perfect for long walks.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are my top priorities. I have a large fenced in yard that is perfect for your dog to play and run with my dog Riley. Since every dog has their own unique personality, I will be sure to learn their individual needs and wants. Whether it’s playing in the yard, walks around the neighborhood or walks on the beach, I will always make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Steven. My 15‑year‑old Yorkie can be a bit high‑needs, but he was cared for with so much patience, gentleness, and genuine affection. I felt completely at ease the entire time I was away thanks to the regular updates, photos, and clear communication. My pup was in a calm, loving home, and he came back happy, relaxed, and well‑cared‑for. Knowing he was safe and comfortable meant kept me worry free the whole time I was away. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter. Thank you Steve!

Steven was the best watching my pup in his house for 5 days! He is super friendly with pups and seems to have a good handle on them. My pup isn’t the greatest on leash and I told him about that and he had no problem at all with it. When I picked my pup up she was over the moon happy, she didn’t want to leave his house. Definitely will be utilizing his services in the near future again.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or quirky/funny behaviors. Every dog has a unique personality that I will enjoy learning.
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.
