Testimonials
​"Steve has looked after our cocker spaniel puppy, Fig since she was 4 months old and she absolutely adores him. Steve is unbelievably patient and caring. As Steve offers solo walks I know Fig gets his undivided attention and he is consistent with reinforcing any training that we are working on with her. Not only is Steve a true dog-whisperer he is also 100% reliable and very communicative always sharing lots of pup-dates and pictures when he is looking after our dog. I am happy to recommend Steve to anyone who is looking for a trusted walker or sitter for their pet."

"When I met Stephen, I was struggling so much with our reactive / over- excitable pup, Beans. Stephen was exactly what Beans needed. He is very calm and has had such a fantastic influence on his lead manners. I've seen a huge amount of improvement in his behaviour. Most importantly, Stephen is incredibly kind and trustworthy. I never worry when he has Beans and knows he will keep my pup happy, fulfilled and safe when out and about. I couldn't recommend a dog walker more."

"Our dog, Copper, absolutely adores Steve - he goes wild when he sees him. We recently went away and he stayed with Steve - we felt so reassured knowing that Copper was safe and having a great time with his best buddy. Copper has definitely grown in confidence - we feel very lucky to have found Steve."

“Steve has been walking our dog Lenny for years now. He is one of Lenny's favourite people and has become a member of the family. He is deeply caring and considerate, tuned into the needs of our dog in every moment. We are grateful for Steve's reliable and consistent support.”

"Watching the bond between Steve and our working cocker, Pip, is really joyful. She adores him! Steve has a gentle calm way with her that she really responds to and for us, it’s really nice knowing your dog is with someone who has taken the time to learn their nature and who appreciates and enjoys them for who they are. We really value how great Steve is to deal with, he always tries to help us out (even if last minute) and goes above and beyond to make things easier for you when life is a bit unpredictable! We recently left the area and still want to use Steve for day care where we can - that’s how fab he is."

"We are so grateful to Steve for walking and caring for Zhora! Her weekday walks are a full hour and a half alone with Steve, meaning we can go to work relaxed, assured that she will get plenty of exercise and his undivided attention. She's also spent some overnights and weekends with him; she loves it so much she tries to drag me to his house during her walks. We're always happy to have Zhora back, but thrilled that she's so happy when she's with him."

"Steve has done both dog sitting and walking for us. We have a young Parsons Russell Terrier that has bounds of energy and Steve has always been very good with her, very patient and calm and Cisco absolutely adores him. Steve is very professional and reliable and has a great approach to looking after our doggy friends."

"Steve has been walking Ziggy since August 2023. He is reliable and trustworthy, and always tries to be flexible with bookings. Steve and Ziggy have a lovely relationship, and they both enjoy regular one to one walks and hanging out. If you have a dog that needs a bit of extra care and attention, then I would recommend contacting Steve at Gentle Paws."

“I can highly recommend Stephen as a dog carer! He has a natural love and connection with dogs and he is very attentive to their needs. I have witnessed him interacting with my own nervous dog and he brings out the playfulness in her and cares for her so beautifully. Stephen has excellent social skills with BOTH humans and dogs and I have no hesitation that he can care for your dog!”
