“This was our first time to send our dog with someone other than a family member and needless to say we had a great experience. Steven not only reassured us on everything, he provided our dog with great care. We’ll be definitely booking with him again.”

About: As a dog mom I understand the lengths people will go to to make sure their pets are taken care of. The attention and love I expect my babies to receive when I am not available for them is exactly I want to provide for you when you aren’t able to be with your pets. As we all know our pets are our babies. I’m currently working part time and am flexible to fit your schedule. I am open to drop on visits but I can also play with them if you need or take them for a walk. Once we build rapport I am open to talking about them coming stay at my house. I have a fully fenced in yard if you need me to care for them or I can simply drop by your place for a visit.

About: I’m available most weekends! My main job is working in a lab, but I like doing Rover on the side. I have a miniature pinscher at home, so I’m very experienced with big and small dogs, but especially the little and high energy ones! Finally getting back into this after a long break because of school 😊 I am currently working a Monday through Friday job and I need something to fill my weekends when I have nothing going on and have some free time. During walks I like to make sure the collar and leash are secure to ensure no mishaps. I am overly cautious of my surroundings, especially when another dog comes along our path. If your dog doesn’t get along well with other pups I make every effort to redirect them such as switching sides of the street, a light tug on the leash to face them another way, or stopping and securing your dog to allow the other walker to pass by. I also like to reward good behavior with scratches and treats as long as you as the dog mom/dad are okay with it!

About: I’m a cat owner myself, so I live the 'cat life' every single day.
