Pawsitively Outstanding Pet Care!

Pet care experience

Hey there! My name is Sam, and I’ve taken care of pets (mostly dogs and birds) my whole life. As an experienced sitter, you can trust me to provide amazing care for your pets. I cherish every opportunity to snuggle with furry companions and provide excellent care. Whether it’s long walks, playful fetch sessions, or cozy cuddles, I’m committed to making your pup feel right at home. Let’s create a tail-wagging experience for your furry friend! 🐾🐶 I have worked for many years at animal rescue organizations and am especially familiar with senior dogs. I carry an understanding of different breeds, each with unique needs and temperaments. This knowledge allows me to tailor my care approach to suit individual dogs, ensuring their comfort and happiness. I have a senior dog of my own, who is very gentle and gets along with absolutely everyone including cats and birds. I am happy to care for your cat, as long as your cat will get along with my dog (who is not in the least bothered by the presence of a cat). I have a spacious house with a patio and backyard space. As a meticulous boarder, I take pride in keeping a keen eye on details. When pet parents entrust their companions to my care, I listen attentively to their instructions. From dietary preferences to favorite toys, no detail is too small. Each wag of the tail and woof of approval or tweet of a sweet bird is a testament to my commitment. 🐾 I want to ensure that you feel confident that your pet will get the best possible care under my roof. AVAILABILITY: Variable, please contact me for specific dates.

Sam was so sweet and took great care of our pup Milo. He can be shy at first but she took the time to make him feel comfortable in her home.

So glad I booked with Sam; she’s highly experienced with dogs, very responsive and sends plenty of updates and pics. My dog can struggle with separation but was well distracted with lots of attention. Thanks Sam!
