Pet care experience

With years of hands-on experience caring for my two dogs, along with boarding and overnight sitting for friends' pets, I’m well-versed in handling dogs of all personalities. I’ve successfully managed unexpected situations, like safely retrieving a dog who got loose from its leash. I offer reliable, loving care for your dog, ensuring they get the attention and exercise they need while you’re away!

Sam has been an absolute lifesaver as a dog walker for my dog, Sophie (a Belgian Shepherd/Boxer/Pit Bull mix). Sophie is typically incredibly wary of strangers and doesn't warm up to new people easily. However, Sam has an amazing, natural way with dogs. From their very first meeting, he knew exactly how to handle her, and she warmed up to him almost instantly. If you are looking for a dog walker who is patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with animals—especially those who might be a bit selective or anxious around new faces—I cannot recommend Sam highly enough!

I was a little hesitant at first to let someone new walk my dog, but I’m so glad I gave it a shot. From the moment we did our meet-and-greet, I could tell this was someone who genuinely loves dogs — not just someone looking to make a quick buck. My golden retriever took to them immediately, which says everything. The walks are always on time, my dog comes back happy and tired, and I always get a quick update afterward. I’ve recommended them to two other neighbors in Gregg’s Landing already. If you’re on the fence, don’t be — you won’t find someone more trustworthy or caring with your pet.” — Min H., neighbor
