Pet care experience

Cat whisperer and your dogs new best friend!

I absolutely love cats and dogs and have over 10 years experience living with and taking care of them. My friends and family refer to me as the ‘cat whisperer’ and I'm known to befriend dogs at every opportunity. As I don't have pets of my own anymore, over the past few years I've started offering my petsitting services to a small number of friends and family members. I'm now excited to offer my services to a small network in my local community. Whether it’s a high energy walk in the hills, a quiet evening of cuddles or a week-long stay, my goal is to bring your pet joy and total safety. I’m reliable, friendly and an excellent communicator (who will keep you updated with photos of your pet if you like), and I promise to leave your home just as tidy as I found it!

I'm a trustworthy and compassionate person who will look after your home and pets as if they're my own. I pride myself in creating a happy and calm environment for pets while respecting the environment they live in. I'm super clean and tidy and will always leave your home as I found it.

House Sitting • Jun 27, 2026

Sam looked after my cat and dog in our home. It was the first time wed tried this. She visited a few times before the booking to chat through things, which reassured us all. She sent lots of updates and pics whilst we were away and left the house spotless. The pets were very happy when we got home, so they had obviously had a good time. Already planning to book Sam for our next trip. Very happy!!

House Sitting • May 04, 2026

Samantha was great - she followed Caspian’s routine and kept me updated with loads of photos. He was very happy when I got home and if I’m honest I think he’s been missing her since! Will definitely ask her to look after Caspian again in the future, as he clearly had a great time. Would enthusiastically recommend Samantha to anyone considering a sitter!

Samantha has been taking care of our 3 cats Misty,Scrapper and Junior for the last 2 years. It is lovely to know that they are in their own home being well looked after. Samantha regularly gives us updates with photos of our fur babies. She follows our instructions on the cats needs to the letter giving lots of love and cuddles. She is a responsible girl who loves all types of pets. She treats our home with respect. When we come home the cats are in lovely condition and happy. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her as a pet sitter. She is amazing

Sam came to catsit for us over a weekend in Autumn 2025. She was very communicative and I didn't have to worry the whole trip as she was great at giving updates. Our cat was very well looked after and will deffo be asking her to stay over again when we go away. Thanks Sam!

Schedule

I usually work remotely so I can be flexible to the needs of your pets, making sure they get all the love and fuss they need! I'm usually available for full day petsitting if you're away at work (8.30am - 5.30pm) and overnight stays. My calendar is fairly flexible and I'll do my best to accommodate what you and your pet needs.

Please let me know if your pet has any needs or preferences I should be aware of, particularly for dog walking and potential interaction with other dogs and animals. When I'm looking after your pet in your home I also appreciate if you can let me know any 'house rules' for your pets, for example whether they're allowed on furniture.
