Ratings and reviews
Stephen is kind, prompt and really seemed to care about my aging dog Max. He had to give him an injection and several medication’s each visit. As long as you give him good instructions he’ll follow them to the “T”. Highly recommended.


Stephen is a top notch dog sitter for our energetic Vizsla, Griffin. He understands Griffin's need for activity, taking him on daily walks and playing in the yard with him multiple times a day. He also understands Griffin's "velcro Vizsla" personality, and gives him lots of love and snuggles. Stephen keeps us posted daily while staying with Griffin, sending thoughtful updates and pictures, which brings a smile to our faces knowing that Griffin is happy and loved while we're away. Stephen also takes good care of the home while we're away, cleaning up after himself and Griffin, so we don't even feel like someone was staying there when we return home. 5 of 5 stars!

We could not have had a better experience with Stephen watching our yellow lab, Odie, while we were away on vacation. From the moment we confirmed the reservation, Stephen was incredibly meticulous and thoughtful in his planning. He wanted to meet ahead of time to go over every detail, and we actually met twice before we left because he truly wanted to make sure everything was covered. That level of care and professionalism immediately put us at ease. While we were away, Stephen sent us updates and pictures every single morning. Not once did we feel anxious or worried about Odie being away from us because Stephen gave us complete reassurance the entire time. We always knew Odie was in great hands. Stephen is kind, gentle, professional, and clearly loves dogs. You can see it in the way he communicates with them and with their owners. He treated Odie with so much patience and care, and it meant the world to us to know our dog was being loved and cared for while we were gone. I truly could not recommend Stephen more highly. Whether you are considering having him stay in your home or boarding your dog with him, you absolutely cannot go wrong. Your dog will be loved, cared for, and treated like family, and you will love Stephen just as much as your dog does.

Always the next experience. Stephen always does a phenomenal job and has our trust with our 2 senior dogs completely. Couldn’t recommend him more!


Stephen was great and Kali really enjoyed his visits!

Stephen was incredible, making it his personal mission to get my reactive dog to warm up around him during his first visits with my 2 pups. I’m thrilled with the progress he made after just 2 visits! He also treated my senior girl like the queen she is, and was extremely communicative.

Schedule
I am semi-retired after 30 years in retail. I am an empty nester, so I have plenty of flexibility to help you with your dog needs. I am super active and love working out/exercise.
