A lifelong love for animals
Hi, I’m Sam. My love for animals started at a very young age, growing up in the countryside surrounded by a wide variety of pets and farm animals, including horses, goats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, ducks, and chickens.
Today, our home is still full of furry and feathered friends, including chickens, guinea pigs, and Pip, our much-loved Jack Russell Terrier - Here she is after a long walk and covered in mud! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I feel incredibly fortunate to continue spending my days caring for them.
Over 15 years of veterinary expertise
I qualified as a Veterinary Nurse in 1997 and spent over 15 years working as a Registered Nurse before retiring to focus on raising my children. This extensive experience has given me a strong understanding of animal health, behaviour, and welfare.
My background as a Veterinary Nurse truly allows your pets to benefit from a carer with deep professional knowledge, ensuring their well-being is always prioritised, just as if they were my own.
Care for every creature, great and small
I absolutely love working with a diverse range of animals. Whether it's dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens, or ducks, I enjoy providing personalised care tailored to their unique needs.
Our dog walks are carefully designed for either solo walks or small groups of 2-3 dogs, ensuring individual attention and a safe, enjoyable experience for all. If you're looking for a dedicated and experienced carer for your beloved companions, you've come to the right place.
