Love my fur-babies!

Pet care experience

I've been looking after dogs for many years, starting with families, friends and people i have met in the local parks. and area, as well as recommendations. I have a dog who is a huskador (Husky Lab) and he is very friendly. I always like to do meet and greet on lead before to make sure all dogs are happy. I'm very happy to let the dogs relax/sleep on the sofa and sleep on my bed. I am very into walking and mental stimulation for the dogs. I keep a very relaxed home, where the dogs are chilled. I currently work from home on a self employed basis. I take the dogs to an enclosed park in the morning and a lovely lead walk in the afternoon. They will all get lots of play, cuddle and plenty of kisses. I have a small fenced garden which is fully secure for the dogs to play, toilet or lay in the sun or snow (weather permitting).

Samantha is a very capable dog sitter who obviously loves dogs. She cooed with our dog’s foibles without batting an eyelid and I’d have no hesitation in booking her again. Happy owners and happy doggo.

Thank you Sam for taking such wonderful care of Riley! From the initial meet & greet, to pre-stay communication and your care of Riley during his stay with you, nothing was too much trouble and we had complete confidence in his wellbeing and safety at all times. Love the photo updates too! Sam is clearly very experienced in handling dogs and combines this with a warm, fun and secure environment - I hope very much she will be able to have Riley stay again and I can't recommend her highly enough!

I have recently boarded my Cockerpoo Jake with Sam and I am so relieved to know that I have found somewhere that he is happy to be. Sam is a fantastic host and really made Jake feel at home. I would definitely recommend Sam to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter/boarder and would not hesitate to ask Sam to look after Jake again.

Sam has boarded my dog, Zorro, several times and also regularly takes him for walks. She is kind, responsible and knowledgeable. Receiving regular pics of Zorro fills me with confidence that he is very well looked after and happy. I cannot recommend Sam highly enough. Thanks you!

Information Samantha B. would like to know about your pet

It is always helpful to know your dog's routine, what commands you use with your dog, if your dog is reactive towards other dogs or people, what time he eats and goes for walks. I will always try to keep to a similar routine. I will always ask for your dog's vet details in case of an emergency. Please advise if any medication is needed and I also like all my fur-guests to be microchipped and wear a collar with a tag. (I do have spares with my details on them).

A typical day

I live in an area which has the most amazing walk/countryside. Long walk in the woods or a lovely walk arounds the lakes. There is a great local park, which is small and fully secure where a few dogs meet up in the morning for a lovely off-lead run. I love to simulate your dogs with mental games as in scent games in the garden. Ball games or basic training games.
