Pet care experience

Hey! I’ve always had a love for dogs, and dogs seem to love me, too. They're big, goofy love-bugs that want nothing but love and food and snuggles and toys. They've got a heart of gold and just want to make you happy. My dog (as well as the dogs I've met/taken care of) make me a better person and I spoil each and every one of them with toys, treats, walks, and unconditional affection. They're only here for a short period of time, so I make that time worthwhile and enjoy every second. I’ve been taking care of different species of animals for my entire life: at home, volunteering at the SPCA, babysitting friends and family’s pets when they’re on vacation, rescuing injured mice and birds — if there’s an opportunity to save a life, I’m on it. I live on active lifestyle: I’ll be able to walk with your dog, run with your dog, play with them; whatever is needed for as long as needed. I have a fenced-in backyard with plenty of room. I'm certified in first aid and CPR (including dog CPR), so if an accident occurs, I'll be able to pitch in in no time. I can also administer medication; whether it be oral, injections, so be it. I'm 20 years old, and I'm currently enrolled at the University of Guelph for Psychology -- I'll be moving back to Guelph this fall, but I'm currently stationed in Brantford for the summer.

Spencer spent 2 days with Sam and his family. A warm and welcoming home for dogs and Sam took great care of Spencer- Thank you!

Sam is a very responsible person with a great love for dogs. I believe that he is the best caregiver available for your dog. Having one of his own since he was little, Sam has shown that he will be an amazing dog sitter.

Sam is the perfect dog sitter! He's always on time and absolutely adores every animal he sees. No matter the size or temperment of the dog, he manages to get them to love him. Very responsible boy!

Yesterday Sam attempted to nurture a sickly bird that fell out of a tree. He has a history of hand-feeding small helpless animals that can not feed itself. Sam is very attentive and caring towards all animals, with an strong attraction to dogs. He spends his free time researching dog breeds and their common traits and hopes to have another dog in the near future. Sam is a quiet sole who has an uncanny intuitive nature. He will go above and beyond your dog's expectations!
