Pet care experience

Big dog guy with love for Big dogs!

My family had a golden retriever before I was even born so I have grown up living with animals in the house! In recent time I have cared for and looked after family and friends dogs on the regular and soon will be looking for my own. Love a big dog but have a love for all other size dogs as well.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets are adored in the house and there was a bearded collie in the house until recently where the owners had to move away, so the house is pet proof. Nice fenced garden for the dog to play about in and also the river and parks are extremely close (10 mins walk)

Sam was brilliant! Great communication all the way through the process, looked after the dogs amazingly well, sent lots of photos and left the house super tidy. Would thoroughly recommend him to anyone.

Sam was very responsive and flexible. Our whippet Ruby seemed to have a lovely weekend away with him. Would definitely use Sam again!

Charlie had a great time with Sam as always and was so excited when we arrived. Sam is great to deal with; took Charlie for good long walks, is very responsive and flexible which is great! I always feel very assured that Charlie is being really well looked after! Thank you Sam! 🙏🐶🐶
