Hi my name is Sam! I’m a student who wants to dog sit on the side of working! I have a deep love for pets that goes back for as long as I can remember so something like this just makes sense to me. I’ve had the chance to meet and own many pets in my day and have lots of knowledge on them. My mom calls me Dr Dolittle because even when I was really young I’ve always loved dogs. I for one know how pets mean family and can give love, attention, and care while you cannot. I am new to this but would love the experience and growing a connection!

My dog loves her time with Sam. When I pack her overnight bag, she gets super excited because she knows that she's going to see him. I am so grateful that he takes such good care of my little princess.

Sam has boarded my dog three times now. He communicates really well, sends great photos, and the dog loves staying with him.

We had a great experience with Samonie! He has such a calm and grounding energy that my (very) high-energy dog responded to really well. Communication was excellent throughout — clear, timely, and reassuring — which made the whole experience stress-free. I had to adjust timing of pick up and he was very flexible. It was obvious by my dogs demeanor that he was genuinely attentive to my dogs’ needs. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in his care and would absolutely book again. Highly recommend!

Schedule

My schedule is free I’m available weekends weekdays and holidays! I would prefer to stick to sittings and boardings and would like to focus on one sitting at a time so I can properly give 100% attention and care.

Safety, trust & environment

There will always be a set of eyes on your pup. I provide walks cuddles and play! I can deal with energetic and laid back pets.

A typical day

I’m a very chill guy and most days will be filled with attention and energy excursion. I like to talk dogs on longer walks on the beach and relax.
