About Sammi
Hi, I’m Sammi.
I’m a really easy going, friendly, and animal-mad thirty year old from England. I moved to Australia in June ‘23 with my partner and I am looking to fill that animal-shaped hole in my heart while I find my feet in the country.
I have many years of experience with animals from taking care of my own cats, dogs, goats, rabbits, hamsters, and chickens since childhood. In my twenties I began fostering cats, kittens, and queens (pregnant cats who we assist with the birth and find owners for her and babies when ready) for North East Lincolnshire Animal Rescue. I also worked with the charity to track and rescue stray cats and kittens on several occasions.
Six years ago my mother opened an at-home animal boarding business which I assisted with on a day to day basis. This included the checking in and out of various cats and dogs, feeding, walking and cleaning as necessary. All of the manual aspects of running a boarding business
Back in the UK I have a good history of pet sitting for many people in my local community for durations ranging from one night to a month. This included caring for various breeds, little (miniature schnauzer) to big (Hungarian Vizsla).
I am currently looking for pet sitting opportunities for any animals, breeds, and locations in the Melbourne area. At the moment I reside in Clifton Hill however I am willing to travel.
I am comfortable walking any type of dog, will sit any animal and do my best to tailor my services to you and your animals needs. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions regarding my suitability or your needs.

Reviews
I booked Sammi to visit my Mum's cherished cat, Peigi, twice on Sat, while Mum enjoyed her 95th birthday weekend, away. Visiting twice in 1 day was a bit of a pain, but Sammi understood how Peigi would appreciate
the staggered company to break the monotony & loneliness of her day; & how cat anxiety is minimised by twice-daily routine feeding & grazing. From the meet 'n' greet, Sammi demonstrated her warmth, courtesy, commonsense & affinity with animals, as Peigi purred adoringly during her massage. It was easy to trust Sammi, both with Peigi & Mum's apartment. When the day came, Sammi sent us wonderful updates with photos & a video showing Peigi purring delightedly. All guilt was assuaged as we saw Peigi clearly enjoying her own mini-break! On Mum's return Peigi was excited rather than subdued, as she can be when missing her beloved guardian. Sammi had even found time to stay longer with Peigi than we'd hoped (without increased cost). I could not recommend Sammi more, & she also won instant trust from my two dogs, 1 of whom is a great judge of character & rarely so comfortable with a stranger. Sammi truly loves animals, more than other sitters I've found.
