Young person with a love for animals!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, my family has always had at least 2 or 3 spaniels so I’m very used to energetic dogs and also raising puppies. I live in a gorgeous part of the Lake District so I’ve always enjoyed taking our several dogs out walking and this also means I’m used to cleaning the muddy ones up! I’ve had a lot of experience with many breeds and ages so I’m confident I can get along great with any dog!

Sam looked after our 2 y/o Doodle whilst we attended an event. Sam was super flexible when we had to rearrange, arrived early & was warm & friendly. Our dog immediately warmed to Sam. We were super nervous about leaving him alone as he gets separation anxiety but Sam was brilliant with him - even staying 40 mins over as the event overran. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend & will be using again. Many thanks!

Sam has been walking my dog regularly for a few months now. He’s not always the easiest due to health issues but Sam is fabulous with him, patient and caring and he absolutely loves her, you can tell by how excited he is to greet her. She recently dog sat whilst we were away and I came back to a happy, healthy and settled dog. Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Safety, trust & environment

I’ve spent a lot of my life with dogs so I’m used to keeping a sharp eye out for anything dangerous or for dogs that like to wander and I’m confident in my ability to recall dogs or walk them on leads.

Information Sam R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special requirements for example medicine or behaviours I should know about. It would also help me to know how good your dog is on a lead and being recalled.

A typical day

I love finding out what games dogs enjoy and playing with them for example my Springer Spaniel, Max, could play fetch all day and I love doing this with him. I also live in a gorgeous rural village which means we have handfuls of long, beautiful walks that both me and your dog can enjoy.
