Hopping into spring!

Pet care experience

I LOVE animals! I have always had pets: I’ve had cats, dogs, hamsters, bunnies, birds, a bearded dragon, and a leopard gecko! I am very comfortable with pets of any kind, big or small! I have experience with young pets, older pets, and anything in between. I have been pet sitting since I was 18 and worked for a friend who pet sat as a full-time job. I can bathe your dogs so they are squeaky clean and worn out when you arrive home! I can also do some light house cleaning/organization/and other services when sitting for you as well!

My normally shy Chloe, couldn't be happier when Sam comes to visit. I can take a few days away rest assured that Chloe is in good hands.

Sam was fantastic with our 2 dogs Snooki and Princess. They hardly ever take to a new person right away but they loved her. We will definitely be booking for all future trips.

Safety, trust & environment

I am familiar with kennel training, thunder jackets, and you can feel assured knowing your pet will be loved on and treated as well as if you were home! For safety, I don’t walk dogs without a leash and I go outside with them when they use the restroom if you have a yard! When pets are staying with me, though I don’t have a yard, I make walks and potty breaks more exciting and I have a small dog park near my house so your baby will get plenty of exercise and come home tired! I can provide puzzle feeders, treat dispensing toys, and stimulating activities for your pup if they seem interested!

Information Sam D. would like to know about your pet

Any allergies, storm fears, medication, favorite toy or activity? How does your dog like to calm down at night? Any separation anxiety or history of acting out when you aren’t home?

A typical day

I like to tailor my sitting for the dogs! If your dog loves to swim, we’re gonna go swim! If they like to be a couch potato, we will go on a walk and hang out and they’ll get lots of loves and pets! Does your dog love to be social? Dog park!!!! Do they love to run? We’ll go to a hill and run until we can’t anymore! I like to stick to their routine but also add new things that they don’t always get to do!

I work full time but only take on new clients within 10 miles of work (I only live 5 minutes away from work!) so that I can leave later and arrive earlier than if I was stuck in traffic! I work at a grocery store and any off days that I have while sitting for you will be spent with your babies so they get extra attention and affection when I’m not working! Your babies are my priority, even if I’m just dropping in for you! I want them to be spoiled with all the love!! ❤️
