Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs are my people!
I've been living with and loving animals all my life. I've volunteered at a shelter for 3 years. I have several years of experience with senior and deaf dogs. I have a calming presence, and I have a solid understanding of dog behavior.

Ratings and reviews
Sam was great! Greeted us on arrival and Arthur immediately bonded with her. Sent us photos during the day and he had a relaxing day. We would definitely have her watch Arthur if we were in the Gettysburg area again. Thanks Sam!!
Sam is a great find for pet owners who want to be certain their pet receives loving care. Extra ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!
My pup was imm immediately comfortable with Sam. She was ready for some food and a nap. Sam obviously loves animals. Sis knew it right away. It’s a good feeling to know your dog will feel safe and be safe with a good sitter.
Fantastic job! Will use again!
Sam is such a wonderful dog lover and knew exactly what our dog Dublin is like and how to introduce him to other dogs. We didn't know this prior the drop off, but she had a few other dogs in different sizes, including her own dog, so it was wonderful for Dublin to be able to play with them and socialize. Her house has a huge fenced yard, surrounded by a woody area, which I think was perfect for Dublin. This is just a one-time boarding opportunity, as we were traveling through the area, but we'd certainly board our dog with ther again if we could.
Sam did an amazing job taking care of Twiggy! I got tons of photos, and Twiggy had a great time running around in the yard.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live a mile from the Maryland state line, just off the highway. I have 6 and 1/2 acres of land, most of which is wooded. There is a small fenced in area attached to the house. I live with my parents. I have a 8 year old female lab mix who is shy at first, loving, playful, and laid back. She has extensive experience with other dogs including groups of 3 or more. Her favorite places are the couch and basking in the sun. I also have 4 cats. Myka, the oldest, is friendly with dogs. The other 3 avoid dogs, but they all have access to a dog-free area.
Pets
A typical day
I can take them on walks around my property. I will only take them around the open areas or lightly wooded areas in the front as they have well-maintained trails. I can also take them to the nearby National Battlefield for longer walks on weekends.
