Caroline & Stephen looked after Lauren’s pets & home
Growing up with my brother Stephen, I have always had a great role model to look up to. Always surrounded by dogs and cats as pets, Stephen developed a natural affinity for animals, which shows in the thoughtful, considerate, and meticulous way he tends to their needs. Whether walking, feeding, or simply cuddling with them, our pets were always thrilled to see him, greeting him with excited zoomies and wagging tails. Stephen's home is a testament to his organizational skills and nurturing nature. Clean, welcoming, and well-organized, it reflects the same attention to detail he applies to pet care. His compassion and loyalty shine through in everything he does, making him an ideal pet caretaker. I highly recommend Stephen to anyone needing someone trustworthy and loving to look after their home and pets. Your furry friends will be in excellent hands with him.
