Sam Allen @ Shogun Dog Sitting

19 September 2007

Finding somewhere I was happy to leave my 3 month old Westie was an anxious time. However, as soon as I met Sam I knew my worries were over. Max made himself completely at home and had a wonderful holiday, partying with her family and resident dogs, loving every minute. I cannot speak highly enough of Sam and her family - any dog would be privileged and very fortunate to spend time with them. Max can't wait to go back in October! Deborah Poulter

What a brilliant break! I was spoiled rotten. Long walks, good company, lots of fuss. All round five star treatment. Shame my family came home from holiday. Harry Pointer

Sam and family have had our dog Alfie several times now. He is well looked after and played with, and never seems to want to come home!! I would recommend Sam to anyone. Caroline Roadnight

Our two young dogs (Archie & Ned) spent a wonderful 18 days with Sam, Mick & their 2 boys. Both our dogs are active and were certainly kept well exercised and entertained. i will certainly be using them again and would rcommend them for anyone with active dogs. Siobhan Dodrill Rees

Sam and Mick and their two young boys looked after Kelly again (Springer Spaniel 15½) as well as also having Choccy and Daisy-May (Springer Spaniels 1 year and 10 months old respectively). Kelly requires a great deal of care and is frequently doubly incontinent, and the pups require lots of exercise and stimulation. The Allens did a superb job at managing all the dogs’ needs. All the dogs were happy and settled with the family on our return. Thank you so much Sam, Mick and boys. Andrea Baxter-Reynolds

Sam and Mick looked after our 15½ Springer Spaniel ‘Kelly’ for a few days. Kelly has quite a lot of medical, physical and emotional needs. Sam and Mick were very happy for us to check in as often as we needed to, and they seemed completely accepting of all of Kelly’s needs. Upon our return Kelly appeared relaxed and bonded with the family and once home did NOT require any time to calm down. We would use Sam and Mick again. Thanks guys for looking after my old girl so diligently. Andrea Andrea Baxter-Reynolds

My dogs have stayed with Sam and family for the first time this weekend and have had a ball. They have obviously been very well looked after and were worn out when we got them back, which is always nice! I can recommend her to anybody!! Joanne Copley

Sam & her family have been looking after our two Staffs since they were pups. We have always been very pleased with the care they show towards them. It's often difficult to get the dogs to leave them!! We are so happy with Sam that we have adjusted our holidays just so that we can ensure thay get to stay with Sam and not in a dog kennels. Highly recommended. Peter & Veronica Morrell
