It was great having Stephen watch my dog! I could tell when I brought my dog (who is an older pup) home that she had comfortable, happy and relaxing time during her overnight stay at Stephen’s place. I would recommend Stephen to other people looking for a dog sitter!

Stephen was great! Very cheery and friendly. Our dog seemed to have a good weekend stay :) We got lots of pictures and communication while our dog was staying with Stephen.

Safety, trust & environment

Your BESTFRIEND will have their OWN cozy and secure space within my single-family home (where I live alone). It is a comfortable and safe area for ANY and ALL animal(s). It is an incredibly spacious place and has plenty of room for your BESTFRIEND to feel right at home! My house has three floors, a basement, a first floor (living room & kitchen), and a second floor (bedroom & office). The surrounding area is incredibly safe, quiet, and secure. Located nearby, in any direction, are parks, trails, and areas for your BESTFRIEND to get out and enjoy themselves, aside from a typical walk down the street or sidewalk. Within YOUR residence, integrity and honesty will be at the forefront of any service I provide. My goal is to help YOU while ensuring your BESTFRIEND is happy and healthy.

Information Stephen M. would like to know about your pet

Does your BESTFRIEND have any unusual habits, behaviors, or quirks? Do they have any fears or situations that will make them uncomfortable? Are there any specific areas in which they lack training or areas of training that you are currently working with them on? How are their interactions with other dogs and/or cats, and are they comfortable being around other dogs and/or cats? Is there anything of severe importance to know or to expect, upon meeting or caring for/boarding your BESTFRIEND?

A typical day

Aside from exhaustive and fun dog walks, many parks and open areas will be available for them to use and for us to go to. Toys and daily stimulating activities will always be present for them to enjoy. Genuine and loving interaction, as well as constant attention, will be at the forefront of your BESTFRIEND'S experience.
