Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I'm there to follow instructions so your dog feels comfortable and cared for. After a lifetime of having dogs, and over ten years providing pet care, classes at Seattle Humane allowed me to fine tune my ability to interpret dogs behavior. This comes in handy for my mini Aussie and large, scared, mix breed rescue and I'm confident I can do the same for your pet. I am happy to make sure their time away from you is as stress free as it can be!

Sam is a natural with animals, and I would trust her with any pet (especially dogs!). She has inspired a greater love of animals in me to the point that in the span of three years, I went from casually enjoying dogs to regularly visiting a dog shelter as a social outing (which is a huge improvement, thank you Sam). Sam is kind, patient, knowledgeable with animals, and just an all around wonderful person 🩵
