Pets

Happy to give a dog a home ☺️

Pet care experience

I have enjoyed having lots of different pets over the years which my 3 children have been delighted about! We have had 4 dogs, 5 cats, 2 Chinchillas, a bearded dragon, hamsters and fish! I have worked at a doggy daycare in the past and looked after friends dogs in their homes and mine. I grew up with cats from 8 years old and loved having pets in my home! Duggee our 2 year old Labrador is the sweetest boy and my partner James and I love exploring West Sussex walks with him! I have done dog training with all my dogs and have done an online course regarding dog behaviour.

Samantha did a wonderful job looking after our 2 cats. We received a message and photo every evening, and the boys looked extremely happy. Sam was very professional, and we are extremel pleased. Would definately recommend, and book again

I was apprehensive about leaving my dog for the first time overnight. Sam and her family were very kind. Our dog had a great time, photographs showed him chilled out… which was reassuring for us. We all as dog lovers want to find a family with the same values to care for our precious pets. Sam and her family far exceeded my expectations… we will be returning and am very pleased to have found her. Thank you Sam

Sam and Cameron took really great care of our two pups for a week. They were good at communicating with us, and gave the pups lots of attention and exercise - the dogs developed a real bond with them, which was nice to see. Thank you!

Sam and her family are such lovely people and were absolutely great with looking after and caring for our dog. Sam kindly kept me updated with some great pictures. Highly recommended and will use again and again.
