Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced dog owner and trainee Dog Behaviourist
I’ve owned rescue Greyhound’s for 20 years and despite being a Specialist Nurse am now training to be a dog behaviourist with the Cambridge Institute of Dog Behaviour and Training. I have cared and trained family and friends dogs and worked with some very experienced Dog Trainers. I care and work with all breeds but my specialty are sighthounds. I am now concentrating on my dog business as I have left the NHS behind.

Safety, trust & environment
My dog has the run of the house. She is very clean and well trained and great with other dogs. I can have one other dog in my home for dog boarding and sitting.
Ratings and reviews
Samantha looked after our rather anxious older whippet for us whilst we visited Hastings. We dropped our whippet off and were pleased from the start as Samantha greeted our whippet (and us) quietly and calmly. Her home also reflected this - a calm, comfortable, pet friendly space. She asked good questions about our pet and her habits, and introduced her own dog later on when ours had had a chance to settle in. She is obviously an experienced, gentle and knowledgeable dog person. If we visit Hastings again we would not hesitate to book Samantha to look after our beloved wee dog.
Sam was great with Saffie. Very accommodating around Saffie’s schedule and anxieties, communicated well throughout and gave really thorough updates. Saffie was calm and happy when we got back. Would highly recommend.
Sam was so amazing with our old girl. She was on time, trustworthy and reliable. Her updates coming through while I was sat in the office absolutely made my day. She even took her for some doggy ice cream on a hot day 🥹🥰 Thank you Sam 💙
Samantha does a regular walk with our German Shepherd, Nova. Samantha is reliable and understands dogs so well, we are so pleased we found her!
Samantha stayed with our Tilly and took excellent care of her. We are so happy and confident knowing our dog is with her and everything is great.
Balou loved his time with Sam. He was happy and thoroughly enjoyed his walk. I loved that he is still learning and Sam shared great patience and understanding.

Schedule
I am currently studying and training dogs so my daily routine is very flexible right now. I can offer drop-ins, dog walks and sitting weekdays and some weekends. My overnight dog sitting rate of £90 in your own home includes daytime (usually 20-21 hours) and includes any walks your dog/dogs need.
