Stephen has been an absolutely exceptional sitter for Milo. From the very first stay, it was clear how attentive and genuinely caring he is. He sends regular photo and video updates, and his communication is always prompt, thoughtful, and thorough. Most importantly, Milo loves his time there. He comes home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious that Stephen treats the dogs in his care like family. I never have to worry when Milo is with him, which is priceless. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and truly invested in your dog’s wellbeing, I cannot recommend Stephen highly enough!

Stephen is a super care taker, for sure. Great and timely communications, friendly and very accommodating for a last minute request. Made the whole experience of looking after my Gracie seamless and easy.

Steve was great with Miss Hazel. He was timely and attentive to her. Followed our instructions well and gave us lots of updates. In fact when we came home, she expected him to be there. When she didn’t see him, she went looking for him all over the house! We were only gone 2 days and already she loved him! Thanks for the peace of mind while we were away from our girl!

Stephen was such a pleasure! He took wonderful care of my 2 dogs walking them several times a day and staying with them overnight . He was so professional and at the same time loving and concerned for the happiness, security and care of my pups. He kept in constant contact with me with texts and pictures to make sure I knew how the pups were. I would recommend him completely!!!
