Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I have had the pleasure of watching Stephen care for his own dogs for the past two years. He loves to play with them and shows them lots of love and affection. He gets them to follow most commands with a firm tone. I have also witnessed Stephen handle difficult situations that have occurred when other dogs and his did not always get along. He distracted the dogs or took them away from the situation to help avoid any fighting or aggressive behavior. I have never witnessed Stephen mistreat any of his dogs even when disciplining them. He will scold, send them to the kennel or ignore the undesired behavior. Stephen is a loving, well attentive dog handler and dog owner.
Stephen is an incredible guy that is great with animals. He takes very good care of his dogs and treats them like part of the family. I've always been impressed by how playful and fun he can be with pets while still being stern enough to make sure no one is getting into too much trouble! With Stephen watching over your pets you know that they are having a good time while still being in good hands.
Stephen has been an amazing help with my pup Gobi. When we were dating my dog fell in love as quickly as I did. He brought Gobi a toy when he officially asked me to be his girlfriend and has always been amazing at walking him and being sure that his needs are fully provided for. He has engaged him with games and food challenges. Stephen is a lovely dog dad to all 3 of our pups now that we live together and is the main caretaker for them especially on the weekends while I am working another side job.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have 3 friendly fixed active pups (9M,7F,5F years of age) to keep your pup company. I have a non fenced in back yard for playing and live near a park excellent for walks. I have a medium sized dog crate that I use for night time crating. We allow pets on furniture in our house.

A typical day
I like to start the day with a relaxed morning and get my dogs ready with their water and food while I get myself ready for the day. We typically go for a quick walk, or if the air quality or weather dictate I tire them out inside with toys and chase. If we have a longer day ahead I will use kongs or other puzzles especially with food for our pups. I would be sure to take your pup for lots of walks and use puzzle games and fun toys to stimulate your dog and keep them active and having fun while in my care.
