Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pets new friend 🐾💕
Hi! I’m Sam, I’m 29, and I live in Avon! I have always had pets: I’ve had cats, dogs, hamsters, bunnies, birds, and reptiles! 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 professionally pet sitting since I was 18 with plenty of experience before too! I’m a marketer for work but with a passion in caring for animals.
Cat care experience
Sam also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Sam did a wonderful job in-house sitting Calvin. She kept me up to date with daily check-ins and pictures. I would definitely use her again in the future!
I would worry myself to death with out Sam. She stays at my house and takes great care with my girls when I travel for work. Sam had some rough nights with thunderstorms and tornado warnings and I have one dog that really dislikes bad weather. Sam stayed and helped them through it while sending me updates so I wouldn’t worry ( or at least worry less). She even brought in my mail and trash can. She’s amazing!
I struggle to leave my girls with others but Sam was so good with them. She sent me daily updates to let me know they were getting quality care while I was away. She stayed at my house which made the transition for my dogs so much easier. I would definitely use her again.
Sam was amazing watching our little one for a week. She took great care of her and our house. Sent us several fun pictures and updates. I knew from day one that it was a great fit. We will definitely contact Sam for future stays. Thank you so much!!!
I will say it forever - Sam is the best!!! She even brought enrichment toys for my boys this time. She is sooo attentive and takes the best care of my boys who are very needy!!! Love her so much!!
Sam did a great job of looking after our cats! We will absolutely be calling her again. Thanks Sam!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I have a very flexible schedule; typically only working about 4-6 hours a day, two days a week, with weekends off! I also have an organizing business that takes some time but I try not to schedule pet sitting at the same time as organizing as long as it can be helped, unless you need some organization!
Where your pet will stay
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!
Pets
A typical day
I like to tailor my sitting for the dogs! If your dog loves to be a couch potato, we’ll do that, if he likes to walk, then we will go on a walk and hang out and they’ll get lots of loves and pets! I like to stick to their routine but also add new things that they don’t always get to do as long as you okay it!
