Pet care experience

I’ll love your pet like it’s my own

My name is Sam, I have been a pet owner for my whole life, including two dogs, two cats, two fish, and a hamster. I currently have a golden retriever who I would die for, and two of the sweetest cats you’ll ever meet. I have been a pet sitter for many friends and family members for years, and I will love your pets like they’re my own. I know it takes a lot of trust to leave your beloved animal in the care of someone else, and I will not let you down. I love animals, and will do everything in my power to make your pet feel safe and loved.

Sam watched our two energetic labs for 5 nights. Two big dogs can be a lot to handle on walks but Sam did a great job.

Sam is great! He has been available last minute on the days I need him and my dog liked him right away and he seemed to have great dog etiquette. My dog always seemed happy and ready for a nap when he got back. I’d definitely recommend Sam for walks!

Sam is a godsend. My dog loves him. He’s dependable and upbeat. Even in frigid temps he shows up as scheduled and with a smile. Moxie and I are so glad we’ve found him.

Sam has been so wonderful to work with on a recurring basis. One of our pups has specific needs on his walks (not to greet other dogs, remain on leash), and Sam has been so understanding and supportive. Doggies love him, and I'm so glad we found him!
