Caring animal lover, experienced with all pets

Pet care experience

*Open to price reduction for short day-sits* 20+ years of pet ownership, I grew up with and regularly care for large dogs (40kg+), including some with behavioural issues. I love animals of all sizes and will cater to any specific pet needs you have. I am a dog behaviourist, and will use my experience walking and training 300+ dogs of all breeds and ages to keep your training consistent, and can try to help/advise in any way I can! I currently facilitate daytime sits, drop ins, and walks. I already have a dail walks and many regular sitting clients, but I do my best to fit new clients in so please ask if you're interested 😊 I have lived in 6 different areas throughout Brighton and love having long walks so I’m well versed on walking locations, but please let me know if you or your dog have a favourite spot! I’m looking forward to meeting all of your pets 🥰

Sam was so polite and professional and very reliable. Buster was absolutely fine when I got home and daily pis and messages were very reassuring. I can thoroughly recommend him. Thanks Sam!

Sam was brilliant with our 11 mth old Cavapoo Winston, he was really calm with him and put him at ease when we left. He is really knowledgeable and we felt he really wanted to get to know our pup. He is also reliable and responds quickly. Sam kept Winston busy with playing and a walk so he was nice a tired when we got home! 😊 We are definitely going to use Sam for sitting again! 👍

I am currently a full time dog walker/sitter working everyday. I currently have a weekday walk, and other regulars who I try to group around lunchtime. I therefore cannot currently facilitate pets who cannot be left for at least an hour on most days. If this may be an issue for you or your pet, please inform me, I will try to be flexible to suit your needs whenever possible!
