About Stephen

I’m Steve, a 37-year-old dog lover from the UK now enjoying life in Australia as a full time dog walker. After leaving a career in finance, I moved here for a change and to follow my passion for dogs. Back in the UK, I had a wonderful Staffy-cross named Nala and was actively involved with the RSPCA, both fostering dogs and serving on the board of trustees for the Coventry and District Branch. 

Currently, I’m studying at Hanrob College in Sydney to become a professional dog trainer and behaviourist, whilst building my dog walking business. 

With a clean Australian police check and a fit, active lifestyle, I’m well-equipped to handle dogs of all sizes. I treat every pet with the utmost care and affection, as if they were my own. 

I offer dog walking and in-home drop-in visits. Boarding at my home can be considered for well behaved, toilet trained pooches who are good with cats (we have an exotic long hair, who gets on well with other dogs of a good nature). 

Geography covered: Darlinghurst, Paddington, Darling Point, Potts Point, Elizabeth Bay, Rushcutters Bay, Woolloomooloo and Surry Hills. 

I’d be happy to arrange a free, no-obligation meet-and-greet to ensure I'm the perfect match for you and your furry friend. I look forward to meeting you soon!
