Quality Pet Care, Always!

Thank you for taking a look at my profile! My name is Samm, and I have been working professionally as an in home animal boarder for the last ten years. I am passionate about your pet's comfort and will always work to provide a safe, fun environment! Feel free to message with any questions you have about availability, behavior issues, or my process. Aside from my experience caring for dogs and cats, I have owned and worked with birds, reptiles, and fish! I hope to build a great relationship with you and your pet! While your pet is in care they'll have supervision around the clock and you'll always be able to reach us! I'm very grateful that I get to do this for a living and will do my best to accommodate your schedule. Making sure your pet is as safe and happy as possible is the most important part of my job! From specific introductions to new environments to feeding in separate rooms to avoid food aggression, I take care to ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible during my stay in your home.

Sam did great with our mini Aussie and 3 cats while we were out of town for a week. Our dog can be a handful at times and she did very well with him. Our cats took to her right away. I would definitely recommend Sam for house/pet sitting.

Sam was our house sitter taking care of our Golden Retriever Frankie while we were on vacation. Frankie had a great time with Sam and we had great comfort during our vacation knowing that Sam was taking care of him. We'll definitely reach out to her again the next time we need house sitting for Frankie. Thanks Sam!

Sam was wonderful! She provided great communication from start to finish, including cute photo updates! She was prompt and very friendly. Our dogs seemed quite comfortable with Sam, which can be a little tough, as they can have a bit of anxiety. Would definitely rebook!!

Sam took care of our home and four dogs for a week and a half and did such a great job! She was great at communicating and sending photos, and you can tell she loved on the pups hard while we were gone! We will absolutely book her again!

Drop-In Visits • mai 18, 2025

Sam did mid-day drop-in visits for my dog who was recovery from a bit of surgery, to check that he was doing okay and give him an extra bathroom break and meal. I appreciated that she was reliable, communicated about my pup’s post-surgery tummy troubles so I could get in touch with his vet about it right away, and sent pictures of him lounging happily in the sunshine to put me at ease about how he was coping with his humans back at work. And I know Ranger enjoyed the visits! Thanks, Sam!
