About Stephen
Hi, I'm Steve! Im a canine enthusiast with 15+ years experience in dog and puppy care, my last few years have been spent being the Director of a not for profit big dog rescue which I eventually passed onto a great group to take over whilst i chase my passion and dream of becoming a certified canine behaviouralist and chiropractic therapist. I also spent 18 months as a veterinary nursing assistant and back to back jobs at dog and cat resorts and animal shelters. My most recent work was as a contractor for the RAAF as a canine safety and enrichment officer within the military working dog development/breeding program. I now have started studying at Tafe doing dual certifications in veterinary nursing and behaviour. I have a large fully fenced yard with different spaces fenced off for my own dogs and a stand alone fenced area for a 4 pawed visitor. Im currently majority stay at home but do have the odd occasion to need to go out for a few hours to drop off or pick up my son from school, happy to take that lucky visitor for the trip if preffered....

Stephen took wonderful care of our two dogs, provided daily updates and even gave our big dirty girl a bath! Couldn’t recommend him enough! We will be back. Cheers Vicky and Dean

Another great experience with Stephen looking after our cat and dog. We were away for a bit longer this time and there was the added responsibility of taking care of our cat, so were a bit nervous about everything going smoothly. Stephen communicated with us really well so we were always up to date with what was happening at home. Thanks Stephen for looking after our home and our fur babies.
