Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat Dad here to help!
I've grown up with pets my entire life, such as dogs, cast, birds, snakes, mice, rats, lizards, fish, hamsters, and guinea pigs, to name a few. I'll make sure your pet receives all the attention it needs while you're away, even the cats (if they want it). I'm also an athlete, and love exploring. So there will be plenty of long walks in the future. I'm available at any time, morning, noon, and night. I'm both a morning person & and a night person, so can be available when you need me.

Safety, trust & environment
Food & Water are always Priority #1, in addition to some loving. For dogs, it'll be a nice walk afterwards, then wind down time. For cats, it's making sure they litter is clean & they have some quality time. I have a pretty spacious 1-bedroom, and a cat named Chunk. She does perfectly well with all animals, so there's no worry about her not getting along with any new friends. I'm also close to the park, so it's an easy trip for a nice outdoor adventure.
Ratings and reviews
Sam was wonderful and so attentive to our very shy cats! He updated us regularly and took care of everything our cats needed. Thank you Sam!!!
Sam was very attentive, flexible, and responsive taking care of Mamba. I came back from my trip finding him very happy and loved! Mamba has a lot of energy and Sam made sure he got the activity and stimulation he needed. 10/10 would recommend!
Sam! Aka; the ultimate pet-sitting superstar. When we had to go away for the weekend, Sam stepped in to take care of our (lively) golden retriever, Hank. And they had a blast together. From the get-go, Sam was awesome. He actually invited us to meet beforehand, so Hank could meet him and Chunk and get a sneak peek of the fun that awaited. This made Hank’s drop-off super simple. During Hank's stay, Sam showered Hank with love, attention, and belly rubs galore. I'm pretty sure Hank didn't even miss us that much (though I won't hold it against him). Sam didn't just meet the basics of pet care, he went above and beyond. Long walks? Check. Playtime galore? Double check. Hank was living the doggie dream. If you're in need of an incredible pet sitter who'll treat your furry friend like family, Sam is the go-to person. Trust us, you won't be disappointed. Without a doubt, we'd hire Sam again in a heartbeat.
Sam was amazing with my two guinea pigs Beanie and Boots! He took great care of them and their cage was very clean when I came home. They seemed very happy and cared for. I would definitely recommend Sam!
Sam is always just the best :)
Sam--and his big cat Chunk--made Fala feel right at home during a recent four-night stay. Sam was in touch throughout the visit, sending photos and insightful observations about our quirky little Havanese. I felt as though Fala was attentively watched and cared for, and would absolutely book a stay with Sam in the future.

Schedule
I work from home, and have pretty consistent meetings, so can pretty well plan out the day. I do have something every Thurs evening, and marathon training Saturday AM (until Nov. 1), but I can guarantee your pet will be taken care of.
