Hi, I'm Sam! I'm a 25-year-old long-time animal lover and experienced house & pet sitter from Port Talbot.
Earlier this year, I returned from an 8-month trip around Australia with my partner George, most of which we spent house & pet sitting for local people in the destinations we visited - it helped us to get experience under our belt, save money on hotels and get some cuddles in the absence of our own pets. It was an amazing experience and I'm keen to continue keeping people's pets company when they need it now that I'm back home.
I have around 16 5* reviews from my experience so far. Some testimonials are below and some feedback is also shown on my profile, but I can send through all of the references I've been given to any interested pet owners - just drop me a message.
I've grown up with pets - dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens, fish... you name it - and currently have a border collie called Meg and a grey cat called Daisy, both six-years-old. I'm experienced in administering different types of medication and working with shy, energetic, anxious and complex animals, so I have become highly confident in what I do.
I'm a non-smoker, clean & tidy guest, and a remote worker so can ensure your pets have all the company they require.

Being owners of 5 cats you can say that when it comes to our schedule/routine and anxiety on leaving them we are definitely seen as OTT, however Sam and George were nothing short of fantastic! They happily did 2 meet-and-greets with us beforehand, listened to us ramble on over each cats individual personality and put our minds at ease. Although this visit was just for one night we had photo updates, open communication throughout and the bedding was even put on to wash before we got home. Cannot fault the service and the cats are looking forward to their next stay while we jet off for a bit of sun for a week ☺️ Thank you thank you thank you!
Second Time using Samantha. She is very very good withy animals especially my German shepherd who can have anxiety on us leaving. She send plenty of picture and let's me know how they are each day. 100% recommended
