Hi, I’m Sam! I grew up in Palmerston North and have lived in Auckland, Wellington, Las Vegas, and most recently Rolleston.  I grew up with horses, donkeys, goats, hens, a tortoise, pet fish, cats and dogs.

Dogs are my favourite animal and I love how each one has its own unique personality and interests. I walk my dog Maple every day and have completed puppy training and dog agility with her. She loves chasing tennis balls, and swimming. We try to do fun outings every Sunday to beaches, parks, or forests.

I have the necessary skills and drive to help you with your pet. I have a calm and relaxed disposition and treat animals with respect. For example, when meeting new dogs, I prefer to sit nearby and let them approach me when they’re ready. As someone with ASD, I often feel more at ease with dogs than humans.

I am honest and reliable. I’m excited to meet some new furry friends and ensure they receive the best care possible and enjoy their time with me.
