About Sam
I’m an American graduate student currently living in the Netherlands, and one of the things I miss most about home is my beloved dog and cat. I’ve always had a love for animals, and caring for pets has been a meaningful part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had a variety of animals, including a dog, cat, bearded dragon, ball python, and fish. This experience helped me become comfortable caring for different species and understanding that every animal has its own unique personality, needs, and routines. I also have experience pet sitting for friends and family, and I genuinely enjoy making animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away.
I offer dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits. Dog walks are a great opportunity for your pup to get exercise, enjoy some fresh air, and explore. Drop-in visits include feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection and cuddles. For house sitting, I can provide companionship and care for your pets in the comfort of their own home while maintaining their usual routines. Unfortunately, my housing does not allow me to bring pets into my flat.
I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and small mammals such as hamsters. I’m happy to accommodate individual feeding schedules, care instructions, and personality quirks to help your pet feel at ease.
I have a flexible schedule and am available any day of the week at almost any time, with the exception of Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs and arrange a care schedule that works best for you and your furry (or scaly!) family members.
I can’t wait to meet your pets and give them the love and attention they deserve!
