Dogs=Happiness❤️🐾

I not only walk, sit and board dogs, but have a background in dog training. I mix commands into our daily routine and play and enjoying sharing how you can aswell. I believe training should be part of the quality time we spend with our dogs because more obedience is the freedom for them to go more places. Plus mental exhaustion is just as important as physical exhaustion which training provides and gives you a happier dog.

Steve is the best. Our slightly special needs rescue needs a gentle but confident hand, and Steve is great with him. He makes sure our old boy gets his medication and food (which he can be quite uncooperative about) and he always takes him on the best walks. We’ve used Steve for boarding and drop-in visits/walks in our home. We know we can trust that he’ll take care of Riley just like we would (or maybe even better!) He’s reliable, communicative, and always sends great pictures, so you’ll always know how well things are going with your furbaby while you’re away!

Steve always takes good care of our two dogs. They are out for an adventure every day. He sends photos and a video of all the activities they get into. We never worry when our dogs are with Steve, as he always treats them as if they are his own.

Steve once again planned an amazing week for our dogs during their boarding stay. They had walks every day both around the neighborhood and into some of the local parks. When they weren't exploring, they played in the backyard. He even worked with them on some agility training! Already looking at the calendar to book with Steve again!

Our dogs look forward to their weekly walks with Steve. He always greets them with enthusiasm and joy. Steve is very proactive with communicating when he's arriving and immediately shares feedback after the walks. Highly recommend Steve for dog walks!

Drop-In Visits • Jul 25, 2025

Steve has continued to be an excellent sitter for our dog Shannon. Shannon developed a medical condition that required our return to take her to the vet. Steve alerted us to the situation and sent us information that allowed us to make a sound decision to return. Thanks Steve. You are the best! Shannon is doing great now.

Boarding • Jun 26, 2025

This was the second time our dogs stayed at "Camp Steve". Steve takes such good care of the dogs - from playing outside, to walks in the park, to even a "movie night" when it rained. In addition to boarding, he walks the dogs once a week and has taken the time to get to know their personalities and quirks. We can't recommend Steve enough and already have the next boarding visit booked!

Schedule

I do this full time and wouldn't want to do anything else. I wanted to create a life I didn't need to take a vacation from, I found that in dog care.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard and indoor play room. Rain or shine we get our balance of playtime and obedience in and have fun doing it!

A typical day

I love working dog agility and basic commands into playtime. Building up a dogs confidence with agility and showing constant accountability for known and new commands is the key to better behavior and obedience. What we allow a dog to do we teach a dog to do.

Helpful things to let me know- What reactions to expect when it comes to new people, places and other dogs? What their normal outings are like and length of outings? Command knowledge? *Share any allergies or treat restrictions*
