Any of the crap outside of Moenia. The spiders are the best at 110xp the nunas a crap are like 90 so no real big difference.

You really need mask scent if you want to make decent pets, however you don't need it to finish BE. As for xp, i'm not sure but once u get dna 3 go to dath and do surefoot brackasets- 532xp and dna you can actually use. 5 x SFB in a template makes an alright pet.

I found seething bol crushers on dantooine to be great xp. They don't deathblow and you actually make good bonus cash if you finsih a mission. Just have to get some people grouped with you to be able to get the missions though.

I didn't mean to be vague, it's just when I did it I was fairly stupid. I did flits, kusacks and snakes on Lok for half of it, then went to Yavin to spend many hours looking at the ceiling of the clone centers there. Took me about 8 hours to get to sampling 2.
The general concensus seems to be to do low level newbie stuff that gives around 100-150 xp each. The bigger stuff tends to take too long for the xp gained over time i.e faster sampling little stuff vs. slow sampling a bunch of big stuff. The actual critter to sample varies from planet to planet. You might wanna just be near the trainer, or a starport where you can get trained, hence my Naboo suggestion.
Good Luck

Gurks on Lok
You can get missions for them (and get paid for clearing the nest), Gurks do not DB, and if I remember correctly you can get about 300 xp
per successful sample.
Once I got "Sampling I" I spent the rest of my time sampling on Lok until I filled all the Sampling skill boxes.
