Pet care experience

I love animals more than humans! ❤️

I have grown up around animals and I have a particular love for dogs! I have a huge passion for ALL animals! 🐶 🐕 🐱 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 I have lots of open space for your little companions to roam free and happy, including a decent sized fenced off garden where they can stretch their legs and play. My house is open plan, quiet and very calming. It will be a tranquil relaxing holiday for them, with lots of play time of course! 🤣 🌳 🏡 I will prioritise play time and lots of fusses and I will make sure they feel right at home from the offset ☺️ 🐾 I live on my own. I have no pets/children living here, so this will be as fun for me as it will be for them! You need not be concerned if your pet is a little anxious around other animals or tiny people and I will always make them feel relaxed and comfortable. Please feel free to ask any questions just incase I haven’t covered everything on here! 🙋‍♀️ Whether you have one or multiple furry friends, as long as they all get along, I’m happy to have them whilst you enjoy your holiday/long weekend away/work trip. I’m very excited to meet your pets! 🫶 xoxo

Sam was brilliant from start to finish and made every effort to make Cooper feel comfortable and happy during his stay. We had regular updates and photos during the entire visit and Cooper seems to have really enjoyed every minute as Sam has catered for his extra requirements and character. I couldn’t recommend anyone better. Thank you Sam.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 16, 2026

My girls are incredibly particular about who they’re comfortable being left with, so I’m always a little nervous leaving them with someone new — but they had the most incredible time with Sam! 🥹♥️ They were both so relaxed and completely at ease with her, which says everything. I genuinely couldn’t have put them in more capable hands. Sam was amazing from start to finish and sent me lots of updates throughout, which left me feeling completely reassured knowing they were happy and being so well looked after. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my girls with her again. Thank you so much, Sam! 🐾♥️

Another great dog sitting experience with Sam, left opal over night for a couple of nights and was given regular updates.. videos of walks and relaxing time that opal had during the day! I left for my trip feeling reassured that opal was in the best hands.. Opal went from being anxious about me leaving, to seeing Sam & her house again and perking up straight away.. even Opal knew she was in safe hands! Would highly recommend sam, once you book with her, you’ll never want to leave your dog with anyone else! ☺️🙃

Doggy Day Care • Aug 16, 2026

Where to start, from the minute I reached out to Samantha about her having our dog Opal for the day.. she was really helpful, accommodating and reassuring about how she would take great care of Opal. I couldn’t tell you just how true that was! I had regular updates, photos, a video throughout the day.. we chatted at the drop off so I was able to get to know Samantha a little, in a short space of time. We left for our day trip relieved and reassured that Opal was in very safe hands! Opal had plenty of room to run around, sniff and explore. Samantha even dealt with Opal jumping around everywhere.. it was no problem where Opal went, played.. Samantha was really accommodating for Opal as a dog. She wasn’t just another dog for Samantha to dog sit.. but a new friend to look after 🙃 I would highly recommend Samantha to everyone!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a decent sized high-fenced, enclosed garden with real grass and an open plan downstairs. I am happy for them to have free roam of the house or if you’d prefer, I can crate them at bed times as to not disrupt their routine you’ve set for them. My house is quiet and calming which should make them feel at home and relaxed from the offset ☺️

A typical day

I love to make sure your dogs are calm and comfortable in their new environment. They are free to roam to sniff every corner of the house and garden to help them settle in. I have a lovely park close by which I enjoy doing a few laps of. I will always endeavour to stick to their routines set out by yourselves.

Feel free to let me know their regimes and routines. What they like, what they don’t like. Things that they may be anxious of. Any allergies. If they can be walked off lead of whether you’d prefer them kept on their lead for walks. If you’re happy for them to jump up on the beds and sofas. If you’re happy for me to give them treats. If they’re barkers and if so, is there anything that triggers them to that I can keep them distracted ☺️
