Doggy Day Care • Jul 14, 2026

Milo had the best time at this dog daycare! 🐾 As soon as we got home, he went straight to his bed and fell asleep, which says it all. It was clear he had a full day of fun, play, and attention. Stephen took great care of him, and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Boarding • Jul 01, 2026

Stephen was quick & clear with communication, accommodated a meet and greet prior to our dogs' stay, and has a large, beautiful, and safe property. Our dogs had a great time with him, and we felt extra comfortable knowing he has so much professional experience with dogs. We will definitely be booking again!

Doggy Day Care • Mar 03, 2026

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.

Drop-In Visits • Feb 02, 2026

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!

House Sitting • Nov 23, 2025

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!!!
