Pet care experience

I have many years of experience dog sitting and working with dogs in my home, friend's homes, client's homes, and through the organization I volunteer for. I keep an active and healthy lifestyle that allows me to keep up with even the most energetic dogs. I care about the dogs I look after much like some people do their children and I understand how important they are as members of a family. In my spare time I also volunteer for a rescue organization that helps dogs locally.

Sam was excellent with our girls, one is a 13 year old German Shepherd, the other a 8 year old mixed breed, he has experience with large as well as small dogs. He is very conscientious with their routines and medications. I liked that he came over to meet the dogs before he came to care for them so they knew him before we left and he would ask if he had questions about them. When I would take then to a kennel they would come back thin and exhausted, this time I came home to happy dogs. Even my neighbors commented that he was here often and they could tell that Gracie was happy when they were out for a walk.Excellent experience!

Samuel has done a great job walking my 2 Shiba-Inu's at lunch time while I'm at work. He is always prompt and considerate with the care he provides. He has also watched the dogs during overnight stays at my house when I sometimes travel for work. I would recommend Samuels services highly.

I would highly recommend Samuel as a dog sitter. He has been a volunteer in our non profit dog rescue for a few years, and I've gotten to know him very well. He is great with the rescue dogs, trustworthy, and always comes to help at every fundraiser. The dogs love him! I trust him with our dogs, and know that they will be happy when he's taking care of them.

Sam has watched our 3 huskies half a dozen times in the last two years. These range from a few days to two weeks or more. We have complete peace-of-mind when he's watching our dogs and know that they are in good hands. One of our dogs is disabled (3 legs) and requires special care and medication. Sam takes good care of her and makes sure that she gets the proper care that she needs. He ensures they get the proper exercise, nutrition, and attention. It's great having him stay at our house because the dogs get to stay in their own home and have someone that really cares about them to watch them. I can't recommend Sam enough, and we will definitely continue to use him in the future.
