Pet care experience

Loving and energetic caretaker

When it comes to dogs, I have tons of energy for playing, long walks, and cuddle time. Not only will I make sure that your pets basic needs are met, but I can make sure they get some good exercise and have fun. You can depend on me to be timely for scheduled walks/sitting appointments and also ensure that your beloved pet stays safe and happy when with me. I will make sure to send pictures! I am very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I can pick up from your preferred location, as well.

Sam did an amazing job taking care of Penelope and Leonidas! She was communicative and sent us lots of picture updates. Penelope and Leonidas were given plenty of attention and came back super relaxed and happy. I would totally book with Sam again!

I have tried Sam for the first time. She is a nice, kind and welcoming person, She had made me fell comfortable with leaving my little men with her. I would highly recommend her to everyone. I would definitely use her again in the future

Sam was an amazing dog sitter. She took great care of my puppy and kept me updated the whole time with pictures and messages, which gave me real peace of mind. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and attentive.

Sam took our wolf in like her own! I would recommend her to anyone who wants to be confident in the process of trusting a dog sitter, constant updates and photos sent throughout the whole process, 10/10!
