Pet care experience
Happy Walks means Happy Tails
Hi, I’m Stephen – a reliable, and passionate dog walker who treats every dog like my own. With many years of being a responsible dog owner myself I have decided to take it one step further and become a dog walker/sitter. I go beyond just walks – I provide safe, engaging, and enriching experiences tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether your pup or dog is high-energy, shy, or a senior needing a gentler pace, I’m confident in my ability to connect with them and make every outing a positive one. What sets me apart? Consistency, communication, and a genuine love for dogs. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and preferences. You’ll get updates every walk, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in capable, caring hands.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I have found Stephen to be excellent. He has been completely reliable. He has always arrived on time and has been flexible in changing times to accommodate me. He is always out with Bernie longer than necessary and is always cheerful. Bernie has got into the routine of going out with him and sits at the door waiting for him to arrive. Stephen obviously loves dogs and has been a god send while I wait for a hip operation. I have no hesitation in recommending him . Judy M
My Bella is a very nervous rescue dog and does not take to people easily however after 3 minutes in Stephen company she was putty in his hands and loved him to my surprise it happened so quick. He was very good at reading her and went at her pace. She went on her walk with him with no problems at all and that has never happened before. Stephen is such a good fit for Bella that it has surprised me how she has taken to him so quickly. I think that is a massive testament of his caricature and Bella has good tast.
Very happy with Stephen’s caring support with my pup, Winnie. She is treated as if she is his own dog and Winnie loves the attention and fuss off Stephen. Winnie is spoilt with many walks and long walks along the coast. I highly recommend Stephen.
Stephen walks my two crazy spaniels and gives them all the love and attention they need when I’m at work. Always receive pup-dates of there adventure’s!
Highly recommend Stephen to take care of your dog. He looks after my dog on walks and when necessary administers eye drops. My dog is relaxed and happy when he is with Stephen. He also drops my dog off to groomers and picks him up for me if I cannot get time off work. Would not trust anyone else with my dog.

Schedule
As a self-employed professional, I have the flexibility to build my schedule around what matters most – caring for dogs. This means I’m available during the day for regular walks, last-minute bookings, or consistent routines that work for you and your dog. My flexible hours allow me to give each dog the time, attention, and energy they deserve, without being rushed or overbooked. Because I set my own schedule, you can count on me for dependable availability and responsive communication – whether it's daily walks, weekend outings, or midday check-ins.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When your dog stays with me, they’re part of the family. I’ve made my home a cozy, dog-friendly space where dogs or pups can feel safe, relaxed, and totally at ease. Whether it’s a comfy spot to nap or a secure garden to explore, I’ve got everything set up with their comfort and safety in mind. I stick to their routines, keep a close eye on how they’re settling in, and always give updates so you’re never left wondering how they’re doing. Trust means everything to me — and I treat every dog like they’re my own.
