Pet care experience
In my time working as a vet assistant, I learned to take care of pets of every kind. I have experience with dogs from small to huge and puppy to senior. I can administer medications and care for disabled animals. I’ve worked with cats, reptiles, birds, small mammals, and fish.
Cat care experience
Sam also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Sam is a fantastic sitter! He did a great job watching our dog and 3 cats, managing meds, and keeping the pets entertained. We rested easy while we were away knowing our pets were in great hands with Sam!
Sam is an amazing sitter - perfectly communicative and a lovely companion to our pets when we were away. They handled our multi-pet meal and med routine as well as a few upset tummies like a champ.
Sam watched our kitties Waldo and Dumpling while we were out of town. We came home to two happy animals. Thanks Sam!
Sam has taken care of our dog, Maggie, multiple times, and has always gone above and beyond. They treat her with the love and care Maggie (a spoiled princess) deserves. Sam is an incredibly reliable dog sitter that I will continue to contact.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
An animal’s home is its safe space. It’s important to respect habits and boundaries in order to make and animal comfortable. I like to spend time getting to know each pet and how they communicate their needs.
Information Sam M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet needs medication or has any other special needs/illnesses. I would also love to know about any activities, treats or toys they love and any boundaries or triggers they might have. Please confirm that your pet is up to date on vaccinations and preventative medicines.
A typical day
I like to know ahead of time what activities and places your pup enjoys so I can plan to make time for them. However, dogs are so curious so I make sure to take them to new places with plenty of opportunities to sniff. Afterwards we can wind down with a few treats and some belly rubs.

Availability
I work part time during weekday afternoons and occasionally on weekends. I’ll either be in College Park or Rockville depending on the day, so I can visit anywhere nearby or between the two.
