The person leaving the review has no direct relation to my dog or to the dog walking services from my understanding. I am completely satisfied with Stephens care for my eight month old 61 pound lab. His techniques and understanding have helped me be a better dog dad in training and also my dog a better dog the world at large. I'm so grateful that I found Stephen and his services if I could get 10 stars I would. His commitment flexibility to my schedule the pictures throughout the day with videos the pack walks. All of it is exactly why he deserves 10 stars.

He keeps me updated with photos and messages regularly, which gives me so much peace of mind while I'm at work. My dog Nugget (who can be a little shy at first and has bad separation anxiety), warmed up to Stephen almost immediately. It's clear that Nugget is treated with patience, affection, and plenty of playtime. I highly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely passionate about animals.

They boarded our greyhound last year during a vacation and went out of their way to ensure our gal was comfortable. It was so much appreciated and confirmed that we made the right choice for boarding.

Our greyhound was returned to us in wonderful shape, happy and with no injuries or fleas, etc.

We have 5 dogs and they are all seniors, Mel is so sweet and caring and gives them so much love and attention.

I de-briefed Mel on Dexter's health (daily meds, arthritis, sensitive stomach) and daily exercise routine. She gave me a summary of what Dexter's day would look like if she were to watch him while we were away. Some dog sitters will shy away from caring for an elderly dog that needs more TLC, but not Mel. She was game, and we were thankful. She arrived on time, shooed us out the door, and sent us just the right amount of pupdates while we were away. We returned to a super clean house and a knackered dog who seemed sadder to see Mel go than happy to see us return home. Dexter's reaction to Mel leaving was confirmation for us that she was the right fit for Dexter and she would be our first choice for dog-sitting from now on. As a bonus, we've found a trusted person to watch over our house when we're away. It's a win-win. 10/10 stars!

Jess is AMAZING! We were looking to board our 4 year old Labrador for 15 days during our trip…read moreoverseas and we are so glad we decided on Jess. From the initial contact, Jess was courteous and accommodating. We made the trip to her place for the initial evaluation and immediately it was apparent that she has a lot of experience and she loves what she does.

It was clear from the photos that our fur baby was having a blast with Jess. Jess even offers pick up and drop off from the Bay Area and this was very convenient for us. She was very accommodating to plan around our flight schedules. Overall, we couldn't be happier with boarding our dog with Jess.

Lindsey is in an entire different league, helping you connect with your dog on an entire different level. Most trainers work just on the physical and "symptoms", especially with problem or aggressive dogs. Lindsey works to understand how they think, connecting with them on an emotional level. Obviously, this sounds much different than what most people are use to, but I highly recommend getting out of your typical comfort zone. Your dog will thank you.

We worked a lot with him and then were introduced by an adopter and started pack walks which have really helped his confidence much more.

I was always hesitant to trust someone I didn't already know to come into my home and care for my beloved cats. Laura put us at ease right away.

Right away, I understood that Laura is a kind, dependable, intuitive, professional person who truly loves what she does, AND has a sense of humor. She kept in touch with us via text messaging every day for the 5 days we were gone, sending updates and cute photos of our boys.
