Safety, trust & environment

It's important, I believe, that a pet is given time to get to know and build trust in me. It's also important that they get those all important cuddles and play. I like to go on walks that are familiar to your dog and, if thought ok by the you, a few new walks too. I always consider the weather temperatures when caring for any pet, whether it is too hot or very cold and wet. Dogs and cats like attention, and that is what I would give them.

Information Stephen L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special requirements that I need to care for, any behaviours I need to know about, and importantly any favourite toys.

A typical day

Dogs love attention and play, and that's what I will provide for your dog, with plenty of stimulation. I know from having many cats that they are in charge of the household, so I will follow their lead, but they'll be sure to get lots of my attention for cuddles and play.

Dogs and cats make a home

Pet care experience

I've grown up with pets all of my life and my wife and I have had several dogs and cats during our 30 years together. I've often been called upon to look after my family and friends cats and dogs, and love spending time with them, and I'm hoping I can do the same for you. Every pet has its own personality and that's part of the joy of getting to meet and getting to know them.

Stephen was great with our little dog Drew he took him for walks and played with him in the garden. When he wasn't up for going a walk Stephen still visited and gave drew lots of cuddles made sure he went in the garden and put fresh water down for him. Stephen was loving and kind and made us feel at ease straight away. Would definitely recommend.

As we know our pets are apart of our family who we love and care for and we want them to be safe especially when we're on vacation. If its it just a fun walk for our dogs and plenty of play time or to make sure our cats are pampered with love and affection. I can honestly say Ste and his Wife Alison are truly the best people for that job. You will be able to relax on vacation or not have to rush home from your daily activities as your pet will be in safe and trusted hands. I would highly recommend them both as you're trusted pet sitters who will treat them as apart of their family.
