Availability

Me and my partner work full time, but usually have alternative schedules with him WFH 3 days a week, so there is rarely a time where our own dogs are left alone. We have an active lifestyle and like to involve our dogs in that, long walks, runs and days out to the beach.

We both absolutely love dogs, all shapes and sizes. I regularly look after my mums dogs overnight and every dog that comes in the house is treated like our own. We offer a fun, calm atmosphere while making sure everyone is behaving themselves.We do love being active and we wouldn't shy away from looking after any high energy dogs!

Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet

Your dogs will be in safe hands with us, we love all breeds and love the different personalities that each dog brings. We look forward to meeting your pooches and are happy to stick to any training regimes and rules that you may have as I know every dog is different.

A typical day

I absolutely love long walks and would happily spend a couple of 1-2 hours on a nice enriching walk, adapting that style of walk depending on the type and energy levels of your dog. We often take Teddy to cafes and quite dog friendly pubs on the weekend so would be a great fit for your pooch if they enjoy alot of enrichment. We also love nights in with Teddy.

Just want to spend all day with dogs

Pet care experience

I have grown up with dog's, I have loved dogs all my life and I have become very intuitive with their wants and needs. I like to be very active, so dogs that enjoy long walks, hikes and even runs (if that's something they would enjoy) )will be in great hands and I will bring them back well exercised. Me and my partner now have our own Miniature Labradoodle, who is super friendly and absolutely loves the company of other dogs, so if you are looking to go away and want your dog to have a mini break or their own, we are definitely the home for you. What I offer Dog walking, everyday early morning and late evenings but lots of days available throughout the week. Pet sitting and overnight stays at my own house alongside Teddy (we wouldn't host more than one dog at a time as to not overwhelm either dog). Teddy is allowed on our sofa and sleep on their own beds upstairs, so however your dog is looked after at home, we would do our best to replicate that and make sure any training was stuck too, while treating them as part of the pack. Pet sitting and overnight stays elsewhere on occasion Checking up on your pets whenever I am available in the day. Any other requests taken into consideration. My Partner will also be present and works from home the majority of the time, so your best friend will be well looked after and supervised at all times.

Sam has grown up with dogs all her life and is now doing an excellent job raising two puppies to be so adorable, obedient and friendly. Your pet will be in very good hands and cared for very well with Sam.

I’ve known Sam for the last 10 years, and in all of that time she’s always talked about how much she adores dogs. A very active person, Sam enjoys outdoor running (she’s currently training for a full marathon) and walking in the countryside no matter the weather, and often takes dogs for walks through the beautiful Cheshire or Lincolnshire countryside. She’s the most dog-friendly person I know and is very kind, getting little gifts for my boyfriend’s dog and playing with her non-stop. I would highly recommend Sam for any dog-sitting or walking activities, as she always puts the dog’s needs first and is incredibly reliable. When walking dogs, she’s always updating their owners with their activities and the dogs return very happy at the end of their walks together. 10/10 recommend.
