Dog Walking Bookman

About: I have many years of experience taking care of every different kind of animal. I’m here to take your dog on walks, to play, feed your pet if you’re gone, care for them overnight, at your place or mine! I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, and all of your smaller pets as well. I’m extremely flexible to care for your pet during the day for walks, feeding, play time, as well as overnight while you’re gone! I currently do not have any pets in my home, making it a safe environment for all of yours! I enjoy getting to spend time with your best friends and will treat them with the same love and care as if they’re my own.

“The best dog sitter I have ever had! My dog immediately loved her. She even got my dog to walk when she was scared by loud fireworks. I highly recommend Lakotah and hope to book her again in the future.”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life, giving me 33 years of hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I recently worked in the pet care industry, which gave me even more insight into providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I personally own a German Shepherd that I trained myself, so I’m confident in handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I also have experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior pets who need extra love and gentle attention. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they’re my own. Caring for pets is part of my everyday routine! I recently moved to Columbia and have the flexibility to give your pets the love, attention, and consistency they need—whether that’s daily walks, playtime, or longer stays. In My Home: I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex, so dogs enjoy plenty of daily walks and outdoor time. I have a crate of my own if needed for your pet. My own pets are very friendly and social, so visiting animals will always feel welcomed and comfortable. I keep routines consistent, making sure every pet feels at home with lots of love, attention, and playtime. In Your Home: I care for pets just as you would—keeping their routine, environment, and comfort a top priority. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

“Samantha has been amazing so far. She has been very communicative and sends plenty of pictures of our dog during their outings. Always on time and doesn’t leave a trace after she drops him off other than adding water to his bowl which we appreciate. She does a great job of checking for accidents and other things that may be out of place during the visit and reports back if anything is found. We definitely plan to continue using her services for as long as she allows us.”

About: I have been a pet owner all of my life and there is a special joy and comfort that only a dog or cat can give us! I think it is important for our pets to get daily exercise to keep them happy and healthy. I'm an avid fitness enthusiast and I love all animals so getting your dog out of the house for daily walks is the perfect fit for both me and your furry friend! It's a great way for your dog to release that playful energy while strengthening their health as well. Playtime is also important in keeping our pets happy and friendly! Getting out and throwing balls, frisbees, sticks, etc is one of my favorite things to do with my own dogs and it's another great form of exercise for your pup! All animals are precious and deserve all the love and care that they can get and I consider it a privilege for me to help you provide that for your furry family member!! I'm currently volunteering part-time which allows me a more flexible schedule which in turn makes it easier to accommodate to the scheduling needs of my Rover clients!! Every one of our beloved pets are different with wonderful, unique personalities of their own! I always offer and recommend a meet and greet to get to know you & your fuzzy friends & vise versa...as well a to taylor each visit to your pet's unique individual needs! (Eg, important medical information, personality quirks or anxites, etc) My goal is to create a dream vacation experience for your furry loved one; Full of playful fun & exercise; cuddles & belly rubs; custom meal plans with your choice of treats & toys to their liking & potty breaks galore! I love & care for each of your furry family members as If they are my own, & as a pet parent myself, I know the importance of having peace of mind by trusting that they are safe and in good hands when you are away! It is my promise that by the end of every visit, walk, overnight stay, etc....that your pet will feel Happy, Healthy, Full, Loved, & worn out from Fun!!!!!
