“Michelle and her family are such a blessing for us. It’s so nice to know our fur babies will not only be well treated but will enjoy their time with her family. Thank you Michelle!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and currently have 3 dogs Chelsea, Lucy and olive. I am a huge dog lover and would own 100 if I could. I do work full time. I am available to board animals on most weekends. I am also available to walk or do drop ins daily after 330 during school and 230 during summers. I do not have a fenced in yard. Yet. I do plan on getting it fenced in either this summer or the next. I can crate animals as well. I do have 3 of my own dogs that I have trained and walk most days.
“Samantha made everything wonderful for our dog, Stanley, while we were away. She sent messages and pictures to keep me updated on how things were going. I would highly recommend Samantha as a dog sitter!!”


About: Reliable and caring pet sitter with a genuine love for animals. I provide attentive care, walks, feeding, and plenty of affection so your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated with messages and photos. As a full-time homemaker and mom of two (plus two stepkids) with a dog of my own, caring for others is a big part of my daily life. Because I’m home most of the day, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to check in on pets, go for walks, and make sure they get the attention and care they need while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I provide a safe and loving environment and treat every animal like part of the family. My yard isn’t fenced, but I have a secure tie-out and can provide additional tie-outs so dogs can safely enjoy time outside while supervised. I’m always attentive to pets’ needs and committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
