Pet loving

55, Designer

** Hi everyone, I have now booked up 2024 house sits, except for second half of August and from mid October to late November. **

Hi, I am a pet animal loving creative Canberra local keen to look after your home and beloved pets whilst you take a break, from March 2024 onwards!

As the daughter of a vet, I have had a lifetime of experience with dogs, cats, horses and many other animals. I under stand the care and attention that pet animals need!

My beloved beautiful 14.5 yr old Spoodle dog passed away in early 2022 and I am really missing having a pet around, but am not ready to have another one of my own yet. So I'd love to help you to look after your fur babies whilst you are away!

I run my online and markets based business from home, so I am around a lot, esp at night, to take care of your pets and home and keep them calm, safe and happy.

I am currently accepting house sits with a single dog, or dog and cat, or cats. My perfect house sit is with calm friendly pets, who are fine with a single leashed walk a day and are able to cope with my working outside the house up to three days per week.

I am clean, quiet, non drinking, non smoking and fit and healthy homebody. I might even be inspired to draw your pets for you!

Please note that my preference is to accept house sits that have been advertised on site, for transparency and ability for us both to leave reviews. :)

Please see my availability dates below,

Cheers, Sam.

Sam is a 10 out of 10 house sitter and I would have her house sit for us again in a heartbeat. She cared for our dog and cat as well as we do, our plants were watered, and our home was spotless on our return. What I particularly liked about Sam was that she works from home which meant our pets were not left for hours on their own. She kept in regular contact together with videos and photos and also informed us that there were blackouts in the area and confirmed with us if she had reset the ... MORE

Sam was a fabulous house sitter and we couldn’t praise her highly enough for how well she looked after our house, pets and plants while we were away. One example that deserves special mention is our little doggy got himself into some trouble in the first 24 hours of us being away which needed some urgent Vet attention and Sam managed the situation so well, including through prompt and regular communication with us and providing all the follow-up care he needed. We are very grateful for the care ... MORE

Sam did an incredible job as usual. She is definitely my go to housesitter and I can't recommend her highly enough to anyone.

This was our first time using a house sitter that wasn’t a friend or family member. I was a little nervous to start with but Sam was great to communicate with and made me feel very comfortable and confident. We couldn't have asked for a better house and pet sitter. Sam took such great care of our dog. She updated me regularly with photos of him going on walks and enjoying time at home with her. We came back to a spotless house and a very happy dog. We were delighted with the experience. ... MORE

Sam is an amazing house and cat sitter. This was her second house sit for us. She kept in touch regularly and also sent us photos with our very happy and contented cat. The house was immaculate on our return.
 
PETER (GUNGAHLIN ACT, Mar 2023 - 1 week 4 days - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
As usual, Sam was wonderful. Brilliant with the kids and left the house spotless. There is a reason why Sam is my 'go to' house sitter and it is reinforced every time she sits for me!
 
JESS (Belconnen ACT, Feb 2023 - 1 week - 2 of 3 endorsements from this owner )
Sam is a fantastic house sitter. She is caring and conscientious. She looked after our home as if it were her own. Our cat was comfortable with Sam from the moment he met her. Communication with Sam before and during the house sit was great. Our cat was happy and healthy and the house spotless. I have no hesitation in recommending Sam to others.
 
PETER (GUNGAHLIN ACT, Feb 2023 - 2 weeks - 2 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Sam did an exceptional job looking after our house and our 2 Dachshunds for 4 weeks. Communication was excellent right from the beginning, we felt so relaxed knowing everything was in safe hands and it was so nice to come home to a spotless house. We highly recommend Sam and will be staying in touch for future house sits! Thanks again Sam!!
 
KELLY (Denman Prospect ACT, Sep 2022 - 4 weeks)
Thanks so much Kelly and Jay for your wonderful review. I really loved looking after your two dachshunds, such lovely sweet dogs. Thanks for making my stay so comfortable and being so prompt with answering any questions! I hope to look after your doggies again! Cheers, Sam
Sam was fantastic. She took such good care of Lily (cat) and the apartment. She kept in touch over the 8 weeks I was away, sending photos of Lily and little messages every so often. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Sam for any housesit and hope she can come and housesit for me again in the future.
