Dog LOVING Professional

Pet care experience

Recently moved to Old City from Boston where I started Canine Unwind, (instagram-canineunwind) a dog hiking business! Looking to meet some new dogs and explore the area. Love all dogs and have 6+ years of pet care experience.

Stephen is the best! He was always able to take care of my pup when I was in a pinch. My dog loved him and got so excited when he came to walk him. Highly recommend and trust him to take care of your dog or cat! Was so sad when he moved out of state.

I’ve had a lot of dog walkers throughout the years but Stephen is far and away the best! He is always on time and very reliable. He’s also such a great communicator and shows infinite love to every dog in his care. He started his own dog-hiking business (Canine Unwind) in Boston. Stephen takes the dogs health and safety very seriously, he even checked for ticks after each hike! Always going above and beyond, thanks Stephen!

Stephen is the whole package when it comes to your dogs needs - loving, trusting, responsible and caring. He has cared for dogs ever since a young child, growing up with 5 family dogs and into adulthood running an off-leash dog hiking business called Canine Unwind in the Boston area, with dozens of clients who rave about him and send him gifts for how amazing he treats their canine companions! All of his clients see Stephen as a true friend and caretaker to the dog - many of whom have become lifelong friends. The care and love he has for dogs shines through whenever you meet him. Couldn't recommend more highly!
