Information Sammy C. would like to know about your pet

If there’s anything your dog doesn’t like maybe outside for too long or any thing they might need while they are with me I will have a dog bed and toys for the dog too

A typical day

Park runs, track walks, the world is our oyster. I have parks near me and much outside space in my neighborhood. The river comes to be a nice place to bring your furry companion on a nice breezy day.

I have experience with all pets

Pet care experience

I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet behind, so my goal is to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible—for both you and your pet. I’m calm, attentive, and great at sticking to routines. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I provide a safe, loving environment they can relax in.

He was very sweet with Elphie and she was clearly immediately comfortable with him. Unfortunately when I picked up Elphie, her and her blanket I left with her reeked of smoke. Usually I wouldn’t care quite as much but it was an overwhelming smell like she had been in a hotboxed room AND I had made it very clear to Sammy that my dog had late stage lung cancer. Wish i could leave a positive review but this is hard to overlook.

Sammy was super responsive and very good with Marti. He kept me updated and is clearly very good with dogs. Will be booking again!

Sammy was great with our dogs. They liked him instantly and were very happy when we picked them up. Sammy sent photos and updates regularly. Would book with him again!
