Mindful Dogwalking
Pet care experience
I have taken care of dogs, cats, and rabbits since I was 10 years old. Family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to feed, bathe, and walk their dogs. Over the years, I have participated in formal trainings, most recently with DOGMIND. I have always had dogs, including Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Boston Terriers, and mixed breeds.
Reviews
Sam has been an amazing caretaker for my dog for many years. He is kind, patient, fun, funny and extremely attentive to my dog's needs ... and mine (in relation to my dog)! Sam shows up when he says he will. He is very responsible and I trust him completely to be with my beloved dog.
Sam is one of the biggest animal lovers I’ve ever met. He takes great care of his and other’s pets. And he’s very cautious! I’ve had trouble trusting my pets with sitters and I would definitely trust Sam with my pets.
Sam had taken care of several of my dogs over the years. He is very attentive and kind to my doggos. I’ve always been very happy with his service.
About Sam P.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My highest priority is to offer safe, loving care to all of the dogs in my care. Each dog is unique and I take the time needed to gain the trust of each one. I find that the practice of mindfulness supports me to deeply connect with each dog and to cultivate a respectful relationship with the dogs and their caretakers.
Information Sam P. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about any of your dog's special needs or preferences. I try to meet each dog's needs fully and lovingly, and I strive to make sure that they are getting the exercise they need.
A typical day
I love to meet all kinds of dogs and figure out what brings them joy. There is a large park on my block where I love to throw the ball and play with the dogs.
