Pet lover who has base access!

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for friends and family since I was 15 years old. I’ve been relied on for walks, feeding, and just giving the animal company. I’ve grown up with cats my whole life and have had 2 dogs of my own while living at my parents house with two extremely different energies that I kept up with (basset hound and Belgian malinois). I have dog sat in a home with up to 5 dogs ranging in size from dachshund to golden retriever. I also have experience with large breeds, specifically a couple of Great Dane/mastiff mixes. I have walked up to 2 dogs simultaneously. Dogs and cats are my love and since I can’t have any dogs of my own your dog will be treated as my own! I am comfortable with most other pets as well. I have experience with ducks, chickens, turtles, and pigeons. I also am good on taking care of the house while you’re away so there’s less to worry about when you get home. I can get mail, take the garbage out to the curb and back, or any other house up-keep you may want me to do. Just let me know!

Sam did drop in visits for my cat while I was away for 2 weeks. Professional in every degree. Would be lucky to hire her again for future needs!

Sam was AMAZING! She is extremely timely, followed instructions and was excellent with her communication. She made my family feel safe and comfortable while we were away.

Safety, trust & environment

I can easily crate animals if needed and have no problems sticking to their schedule to make sure they get let out. I have no problems cleaning up after any accidents that may happen. Schedule and routine is important to me, especially when it comes to feeding times.

Information Sam L. would like to know about your pet

If they need medication, have specific routines, or any problem behavior-behavior that you’ve deemed a problem, not at my discretion- to look out for (potty accidents, jumping on furniture, etc) or training that needs to be done.

A typical day

I love to just walk in neighborhoods and parks. I like to try and find hikes for dogs if they’re a more active breed. I also love playing tug-o-war games and enjoy rough housing if your dog is the type to enjoy that. I would never rough house with a dog that didn’t want to/couldn’t handle it, or if you wouldn’t want me to. I also love to just cuddle and hang out if that is more your pets speed.

I work 8-4 Mon-Fri with an hour lunch whenever I decide to take it. My job is very loose with times as well, so sometimes my hour lunch is a little longer if need be, giving me time to finish walks, take dogs outside, etc. My weekends are pretty open and dictated by the schedule your animal needs!
