Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
As always Sam was fantastic! We were in the middle of moving and she really helped us out with being there and communicating with us when needed. Definitely would recommend!
Sam is phenomenal! She is very knowledgeable about cats and cat care and you can tell that she really loves animals. Her home is basically a cat paradise! She kept us well-informed with pictures and other updates. She took such great care of our cat and will definitely be using Sam again in the future!
Fantastic! Very communicative and sends lots of pictures. Follows up even after the stay and will reach out if she needs to.
Best place to board your cat in Bloomington. I come to the Indy area for work and bring my cat for Sam to take care of. I love her place and her home has really good energy for my cat. I would absolutely recommend Sam for your pet sitting needs.
I am so lucky to have met Sam. She is the best cat trainer in Bloomington and her home is so cute and practical for any cat. I would trust her with all my babies!
Sam is truly a cat whisperer and the only person I fully trust with my pets. She goes far beyond basic pet sitting. She genuinely understands cats, their behavior, personalities, and emotional needs. She doesn’t just watch your cats, she enriches their lives and makes them feel safe, engaged, and loved. Her dedication to animals is incredible. She has trained her own cat to use communication buttons, do tricks, and even walk on a leash outside. She’s built an entire cat paradise at home with cat trees, shelves, enrichment toys, and climbing spaces designed specifically for feline happiness. Not only that but she has experience with dogs and even hedgehogs. She knows how to give the best quality of life to each animal based on their needs. Sam is also extremely clean, responsible, and attentive to detail. She’s happy to accommodate special requests and truly treats every pet like family. Any cat owner would be lucky to have someone as caring, knowledgeable, and passionate as Sam looking after their pets.

Schedule
I play with my own cat for a minimum of 2-3 hours daily, but during drop-ins I will fit in all the play and care within our time!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have 4 large trees, 10 shelves, a cat wheel, and over 40 different cat toys so there will definitely be something your baby will enjoy. I like to play with cats and can also train your kitty during their vacation. I understand body language well, respect space, and meet their needs.
Pets
A typical day
First, we will play together so that they get their energy out and feel more comfortable around me. Even if they don’t enjoy playing typically, i will find their game. Then, I will reward them with a healthy snack. We will probably play some more, and I will show them some new sights. At this point, they’ll be sleepy so we will cuddle and I will give them affection. And repeat!
- CatsSam can host up to 27 pets per night
- Whatever makes your pet happy is important to me. If you are interested in some kind of training during their stay, please let me know that as well!
