About Stephan C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm naturally patient and observant. Every dog is an individual, and I take the time to learn their unique personality, energy levels, and any quirks they might have. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer who needs to burn off steam or a more reserved companion who prefers a leisurely stroll, I adapt my approach to suit them. This also means I'm constantly aware of their body language and surroundings, ensuring their safety and comfort at all times. I understand the importance of sticking to a routine, and you'll always be informed about our walks, from pick-up to drop-off, and how your dog enjoyed their time. I treat every dog as if they were my own, prioritizing their well-being above all else. I incorporate playtime, mental stimulation, and plenty of positive reinforcement into our outings. From navigating busy streets safely to exploring local trails, I ensure your dog gets the exercise and engagement they need to be happy and healthy.
Information Stephan C. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or I need to be aware of certain behavior traits ahead of time. The more heads up info, the better.
A typical day
I love to go out and explore the local trails. If your dog has the energy, we'll be checking out new hikes, dog parks or even just a casual neighborhood walk

Pet care experience
I have had the pleasure of being apart of 3 different puppies lives, helping out with my housemates huskies, bernadoodles, and labs and have taken an active role while they grew up. Whenever their owners were away, I was always there to step in and watch over them.
Reviews
Stephan is fantastic with our two boys. He's very accommodating, and willing to meet and greet before hand was a big help. We look forward to him dog walking and house sitting in the future. Thank you!
Stephan has taken great care of our dog over several years. We are so thankful for Stephan’s ease at managing our dog’s bouncy and rambunctious energy. It isn’t easy finding someone that is comfortable managing a young, large, and high energy dog. We can always trust that Stephan takes good care of our dog by balancing a bit of training with fun and energetic outings.
Stephan is friendly, responsible, and is much loved by our dog. We have a Brittany Spaniel named Nellie who Stephan has looked after when we’re away. Nellie is high energy and Stephan is great at meeting all her exercise needs. We really appreciate having someone trustworthy and know Nellie is well cared for and loved while we’re away!
Stephan walked and babysat Charlie for us regularly for 3 years. He was always on time and took very good care of him. He was a good handler especially because Charlie is nervous around other dogs and can be aggressive so he can be a lot to manage. Stephan had good authoritative control but also was very respectful and playful with Charlie. Charlie was always happy to see him and I would recommend Stephan to anyone for walking or boarding/babysitting their dog.
