Information Samuel S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know how social your dog is with other dogs and people, so I can know how to make them feel the most comfortable!

A typical day

I am very active and would love to run around with your dogs on some trails or at the park. But I am just as willing to chill with less active pups or cats inside if that is their thing!

My best friends are animals!

Pet care experience

I grew up in an animal family with dogs, cats and horses. Sometimes my family questions if our pets need the amount of emotional support that I give them. Trust me they do ;)

I could not have asked for a better experience! My dog was so well taken care of and had so much fun, I didn’t think he’d want to come home. Best dog sitter I’ve ever had. Highly recommend! Sam was awesome and has passion for animals.

Big Man has fell in LOVE with Sam!! He actually looks forward to go hang with his new buddy!! Knowing your pup is somewhere he actually wants to be makes the trip so much better!! I will leave a glowing review every single time he sits for us! THANK you Sam!! FYI, I would recommend no one BUT him!!

Sam is without question the very best sitter that I have had to date! This is by no means a slight at any previous sitters! He was flexible, sent plenty of pictures and most of ALL, he was loving to my pup! If he is available the next time and time after to sit for me, he will be the ONLY sitter that I use! I recommend him above ALL AND any!!

I cannot recommend Samuel enough! From the moment he walked in, I felt completely at ease leaving my dogs in his care. He has such a calm and loving energy that instantly made my pups feel comfortable and happy. Throughout the stay, he kept me updated with adorable photos and little check-ins, which made being away so much easier. When I came back, my dogs were so in love with him they didn’t even want to him leave seriously, they looked at me like, “Does he have to go?” That’s how you know they were treated like royalty! If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, this is your guy. Absolute 10/10.
