Pet care experience

Hello fellow pet-parent! I began working in veterinary medicine 2+ years ago at a specialty clinic, I am currently working in the surgery department but also have experience in nursing and emergency care. I have 8+ years of experience with dogs, cats, (and horses) of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. You can trust I have your pets best interest in mind, and will always treat your fur-baby like they are my own (while always respecting and following any house rules or special requests, of course). I have 5+ years experience pet-sitting for both dog and cats, I am very comfortable with the basics (feeding, potty-breaks, play time and cuddle time). I am also very comfortable grooming, bathing, walking, or medicating your furry friend- (oral medications and/or subcutaneous injections). I have 3 cats of my own ranging from 1 to 7 years old, and I also have a 2 year old female-spayed American Bully who I rescued from Cuyahoga County Animal Shelter in September 2021. All of my fur-babies are very friendly and love meeting new friends, but more importantly- I am looking forward to meeting you and your beloved pet(s) !

Sam was great and took good care of my dog with love and care. Because of her background in veterinary, she was able to diagnose my dog was liking himself and after talking to me she gave him the proper medication and put a collar on him. When I went to pick him up he was very happy and healthy… which makes me really happy. I also like the fact that Zeca was the only dog with her because he is not very friendly with other dogs around. Sam, thank you so much!!

I will 100% book with Sam again! She sent me updates and pictures of my dog throughout the day and made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. My dog didn’t even want to leave when I went to pick him up, he had so much fun!! Thanks, Sam:)

Information Sam M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs or accommodations. I have plenty of toys to provide, but your fur baby is also welcome to bring any of their favorites along. Also, if your dog is visiting- please inform me if he/she is cat-friendly, as I have 3 very loved kitties in my home.

A typical day

I want to keep your pup comfortable, happy, and stimulated- both mentally and physically. My dog is extremely friendly and loves meeting fellow dog friends, but she can also be crated if your pup is more of the lone-wolf type. I’ll take your dog on leash-walks and give them all the time they’d like for sniffing (as rushing them would be extremely rude). There’s numerous parks and walking trails near me, but my neighborhood also has lots of grassy areas to walk and play in.
