Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pets new best friend!
I have lived with animals in and around my home since I was little, and sincerely believe that pets are as much a part of family as other people. I have experience within the pet retail industry, once working for a small independent local pet store, and have extensive knowledge on pet products and pet care. I have a natural friendship with pets, and having dog/ cat sat for family and friends have cemented myself as their pets best friend- And after many years still receive wagging tails and zoomies when I turn up at their house! Growing up my family dog was a very hungry and very friendly Chocolate Labrador named Mambo, who I delighted in giving copious walks, playtime, and treats. I currently live with my fiance and my cat son, Mister Pebbles, who is the lord of the house. He is seven years old but doesn't act like it, and requires daily medicine and a strict routine. While Mister Pebbles was my fiance's cat initially, I have over the years developed a strong father-son bond with him, and much to my fiances dismay may have become the favourite parent. I have access to my own vehicle, and can be flexible according to both you and your pets needs.

Safety, trust & environment
I am reliable, responsible, and communicative, and will endeavour to supply peace of mind throughout every step of our journey together. As both a pet owner and a homeowner, I fully understand how much anxiety can arise from trusting your home and pets with a new sitter. I am more than happy to field any and all questions you may have for me prior to you making your booking. Even if a quick chat with me would ease your mind, I am more than happy to accommodate!
Ratings and reviews
I've known Sam for nearly 3 years now. My dog, Ghibli, is always delighted to see him and he's been a major help at times when he has stepped in at short notice to provide overnight care while I've been away. Since the arrival of my cat Gary (completely out of the blue as per the rules of the cat distribution system), he and his fiancee were indispensable in learning how to love and care for a senior cat and having met Mr Pebbles himself, I can attest to Sam's cat magnetism and capability when it comes to administering medication, following strict diets or feeding regimen, and in general being respectful of both your furry family and your home.
Sam is a lovely person caring reliable responsible and often looks after our dog Millie and even has her overnight for us she loves him. He is really good with all dogs and they take to him instantly recognising this is someone we can trust and is very kind I believe a dog knows instantly what kind of person you are and are never wrong . I believe Sam will make an excellent member of your team.
Sam B has looked after my 8 year old dog Gus many times. Gus is playful, energetic and also visually impaired. Every time Sam has come to look after him he has provided essential care, love, kindness and a fun nature that entertains and supports Gus and his needs. Sam is a deeply empathetic person and a hard and dedicated worker. I'd trust him with my pet everyday no question. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for care for their pet!

Schedule
I am currently unemployed, focusing much of my time on being a good house husband to my fiance. I intend on pursuing a PhD part-time in the new year, and I am excited to work my pet sitting duties around this. In the meantime I am fully flexible and available, own my own vehicle, and am able to fit my schedule around the needs of yourself and your pet.
