Highlights
Pet care experience
Looking for experience & adventure!
I have had pets since I was very small, 10 years or younger. Since then I've grown to love them and their individual personalities, and was tasked by neighbors and friends to take care of their animals while they were away. I worked at my hometown animal shelter as an animal care and administrative assistant, where I cared for animals with a variety of needs. From kittens with CH or other neurological issues, to taking care of kittens sick with panluekemia or calici virus, to cats and dogs that just needed a little extra love and care to get comfortable with human interaction, I saw it all. It made me love animals even more, and take extra care at monitoring their body language to see if anything was amiss! It doesn't matter the age or behavior of the animal, I treat every individual with care and respect.
Cat care experience
Sam also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I'll be sure that nothing has happened to the residence while I was away, such as accidents, and always check each individual animal for good health. I can feed, walk, and crate dogs and play and snuggle with cats. I'm stern but never cruel, and know that sometimes I need to change up my methods depending on the animal!
Ratings and reviews
Sam / Samantha is a hardworking, conscientious individual. She has loved working with animals of all types and sizes from an early age. In Jr High she worked with an organization relocating newborn antelope in an effort to repopulate diminishing herds. She worked bottle feeding the young antelope until they were healthy enough to be migrated. She has been around and worked with horses. She completed a bareback riding course and worked grooming and exercising horses. She has taken care of dogs and cats for friends and has owned dogs, cats and even a rat and has taken very good care of them. If there are dogs, puppies, cats or kittens around Sam is right in the mix. She would be a very good choice if looking for someone to care for pets.
