Safety, trust & environment

I am confident and capable of controlling dogs when needed - but also love cuddles with them too! I usually walk dogs at least twice a day when in my care and can cope with any problems that may crop up. I don’t panic!

Information Stephanie A. would like to know about your pet

It’s important to know how good your dog is on AND off the lead. I’m a firm, confident handler, but knowing your pet’s recall words and actions is always a big help. I also prefer animals that don’t share human beds…and are house trained of course.

A typical day

I love walking and really enjoy gardening - so am happy to be outdoors when the weather is good and do a bit of gardening to boot! I find dogs who are good at retrieving really good fun - and time flies when you have a dog and a ball!

Absolutely delighted with Steph. What a gem of a lady. Very conscientious, came to meet us beforehand, and made us feel happy and confident that our dogs would be looked after well. The day went smoothly, Steph sent us an update reassuring us that our dogs were settled and happy. Would thoroughly recommend Steph, she was brilliant. We can't thank her enough.

Stef took great care of our dog Bonnie while we were away for a long weekend. She was organised, punctual and easy to communicate with! Most importantly Bonnie seemed to have had a great time! Would definitely recommend Stef!

Stephanie was amazing. So lovely and reliable. Felt really safe trusting her with our home and the pets. Hope she's available for future sittings.

Steph is outstanding. Took amazing care of our pup while we were away. Gave us daily updates which really made us feel comfortable he was being looked after well. Steph left the house immaculate which was great coming home to. Highly recommended!
