Important to know in advance: I always like to meet first before confirming a booking. It gives us all a chance to get to know each other, including my nine year old Cocker Spaniel, Oscar. Please let me know anything that will help your dog settle in, from their routine and personality to medication or any little quirks.

A typical day

Describe a typical day: The first hour usually tells me everything. Some dogs are off exploring, some are looking for a tennis ball, and some have already found the comfiest place in the house. After that, they just become part of the day.

Calm Dog Boarding in West London

Pet care experience

I enjoy looking after dogs and making them feel at home. Every dog is different, so I take the time to get to know their personality and routine.

Sam and family were wonderful. Great care and great comms! Their home is a lovely, safe space, perfectly suited to dogs of any temperament. Teddy had a really lovely time: she was walked, fed, entertained and she made herself at home very quickly! That’s all down to Sam and I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook in the future!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Sam was really nice, attentive, and went above and beyond taking care of Cherry, sending updates throughout the whole day so we never had to wonder how she was doing. He was so patient and sweet with her, and it really showed how much he cared. Highly recommend!

San and his family were great from initial contact to picking up Phoenix. We met before Phoenix boarded to ensure that he would get on with Sams dog which he did and also it was an opportunity to see whether Phoenix would be happy staying with the family. I was very impressed with the level of contact through his stay as Sam would send pictures and let us know how Phoenix was getting on. I would definitely recommend Sam to other people as he is friendly, kind and also is good value for money .

Our dog Monty had the best weekend with Sam - lots of walks, cuddles and updates! He was so relaxed as soon as he got to Sam’s place and clearly had the best time! Thanks Sam so much for taking such good care of Monty and for all the photos and videos keeping us updated!
