Description:

I have grown up with animals all of my life. Every since I was a young child I would always bring home stray cats and dogs that I would find. I would even save the lizards that my childhood cat, Nala, would bring in. I have always had a fondness for all living creatures.

I have worked at a Dog Kennel in Newport Beach, CA for over a year. While working there I have learned many skills in boarding dogs while the owners are away. Many of my duties at the kennel included cleaning, feeding, bathing, playing with small groups of dogs, and administering medications. The kennel would accept dogs from all walks of life; big, small, friendly, aggressive, young, and old. I have gained valuable knowledge when it comes to all types of dogs.

After leaving the kennel, I decided I still wanted to work with these furry friends. I have decided to open my doors to your wonderful pooches while you are away. I live with my boyfriend in a two bedroom condominium, in Placentia, California, close to the Placentia Civic Center. Our house is all wood floors and tile, with a decent size back yard. There are very nice parks and sidewalk paths located right next to our home that would be a perfect place for your pooch to stretch their legs. If you decide to bring your best friend to our location you will get the wealth of knowledge, safety and security that your pet deserves.

If you are interested in using my services, please fill free to check out my website, thedogg........ . If you have any further questions or wish to book a stay here at The Doggy Pad please email or call. :)

*My prices do very depending on size, number of dogs, and type of service requested.

How long have you been a dog lover? Tell us about your history with dogs.

I have always loved dogs, and all other animals since I was very little.

What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences?

I would like to know any special things that the owner might now about the dog. Any special things that the dog needs; directions about how to feed, medicate, etc.

Do you have reliable transportation in the event of an emergency?

Yes, I do have a very reliable truck.

Are you comfortable administering medication?

I am very comfortable with giving medication to dogs.

How much time do you plan on spending with my dog each day?

I'm home most of the day, except for when I got to work for a few hours, so I will be able to give your dog hours of love and attention.

If you have a backyard, please describe it.

I do live in a condo so you would think that the back yard would be small but It's pretty decent sized. It's about 30'x10', mostly paved, but has some dirt on both sides. The yard is completely fenced in with a gate that is locked, so you don't have to worry about your pooch getting out.

Where will my dog sleep?

I request that your dog have a crate to sleep in at night. The dog would sleep in doors, but for safety for my own animals and your own, I like to keep the animals in their own sleeping area at night, while not supervised.

Where will you take my dog on walks? Tell me about it.

The area that I live in has nice side walks that wind all over the place, plus several local parks, that your dog will have fun playing at.

Samantha W.'s Experience:

I have volunteered at a Veterinarian Hospital for a year, work at a dog kennel for over a year, and have been the person that my family and friends call on when they need some one to watch after their pets. While working at the kennel and animal hospital, I have gained experience working with all ages of dogs (from puppies to elderly), and all sizes and breeds, too. Also, I am very comfortable with giving medication to dogs.

I own 2 dogs, both of which are pretty big. Samantha has watched my babies for me many times, and has always taken the best of care of them. She loves to be around them and it shows.

To Whom It May Concern: I have known Samantha Waterhouse for many years. I feel comfortable in giving all my pet care needs to Samantha. The reason I feel so comfortable with Samantha is because, she always meets and exceeds all responsibilities assigned to her. Again, this is why I use Samantha and refer her to family and friends. Sincerely, Cynthia Soltis

Samantha has taken care of three of our dogs. She has always been very conscientious about her duties. All of my dogs love her and are always excited to see her. Her responsibilities have been to feed them, walk them and to administer medication. We have recommended her to our neighbor and they too have been very happy with how she took care of their dog. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. Please feel free to contact me if you have any other questions. (Collapse)
We went to Mexico for 9 days/8 nights and Samantha came to our house twice daily to feed, walk, and play with our two dogs. She was also kind enough to water plants, collect mail, and clean up any doggy messes. Our dogs were happy to see us, but seemed so much happier and healthier than when we've boarded them at other places. She also updated us via email and Facebook, and it really, really helped put our minds at ease while enjoying our honeymoon. She's professional and attentive. We couldn't be happier. Thank you so so so much!!! (Collapse)

Samantha took very good care of Elle over the weekend. You can see some of Elle's photos loving her own vacation. Furthermore, Samantha was cooperative with my unbalanced schedule at that time. Without a doubt, I highly recommend The Doggy Pad! I will for sure will be using her dog boarding services in the near future! Thanks again!
