Safety, trust & environment

Anxious and/or reactive doggies are more than welcome! I have various animal behaviour and counselling qualifications. I am yet to find a dog or cat that I can't win their trust! I use pet remedy and have various sizes of thundershirts available too. I have plenty of toys and enrichment activities for dogs to engage with, thoroughly enjoy walks and providing the mental and physical stimulation your pets enjoy in your absence. Happy pets = happy Sam!

Information Samantha L. would like to know about your pet

General demeanor, how they interact with humans and other animals, any behavioural issues, toileting habits and needs, any medication needs, dietary requirements and feeding times.

A typical day

I thoroughly enjoy spending time with animals providing both physically and mentally stimulating activities such as walks, games, exploration, interactive toys to ensure they get the most from each and every visit, sitting or walking session. Each and every pet will feel comfortable and happy, loved as if my own, treated how every animal deserves to be treated.

Pet care experience

🌟Currently able to accept new clients🌟 DBS CHECKED. Advanced Pet First Aid level 3 VTQ, CPR, Animal Nutrition, Behaviour Training,Canine studies lvl 3, Ofqual accredited Canine care and Welfare lvl 2 and AMTRA companion animal medications qualified. Sam's Petcare Services. I've taken care of pets for as long as I can remember and have always had a real passion for the care of all animals. After a lengthy career at a large well known pet retailing business as a senior manager, I have made the decision that it is now time for me to bring pets to the forefront of everything I do. I can offer multiple services for your furry family members; I can pop in to let them out for the toilet,feed them whilst you're out during the day,change litter tray, give them the love and attention they deserve. I can take your dog/s for walkies on a 1 to 1 basis tailored to their needs, 30 minutes or more each time. My focus is 100% on your pet/s and I don't run group walks purely for safety reasons and clients peace of mind. Rest assured I have a wealth of knowledge across the care of all different companion animals. I currently have 10 year old siberian husky named zeus whom is very friendly and sociable, aswell as a 1 year old Shiba Inu called Dexter who is very cute and cheeky! I have experience in caring for different breeds, age ranges, anxious or overexcited. I am a very warm and patient person with a real love for animals willing to go above and beyond for their welfare and happiness. I know just how important our fur babies are and want to provide love and comfort to them in your absence.

Used Rover & Sam for the first time yesterday as we were out all day at our daughter's wedding. I was worried about leaving our dogs as they're not used to new people but Sam was great! We got pics and video's whilst we were out which made us feel much better about leaving them and were able to relax and enjoy our day. Can't recommend Sam enough, we will definitely be asking her to look after them again in the future x

Sam was fantastic with my senior dog Marty! I really appreciated how calm, gentle and patient she was during his drop-in. She let Marty set the pace and didn’t rush him – a great foundation for their hopefully continuing relationship! Her communication, from our meet-and-greet onwards, has been outstanding. She sent text, photo and video updates during the drop-in which were very reassuring. It is clear that Sam is passionate and knowledgeable about animals, as well as being organised and trustworthy. I would not hesitate to recommend her!

From her initial visit Sam made us feel very secure in the knowledge that our cat was in the best hands. Great communication over the duration of the trip and came home to a cat that was happy.
