Pet care experience

Your dogs new bff

Hi! I’m Sam a lifelong dog lover based in the Atlanta area. I provide a safe, calm, and structured home where dogs are treated like family—not just watched. I specialize in caring for multiple dogs at once while still giving each one individual attention, affection, and routine. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, I adjust to their personality so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and understand how important it is to trust who your dog is with. My goal is simple: your dog feels at home, and you feel completely at ease.

Schedule

Every pet becomes part of the family while they’re with me. My days are centered around making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. We spend our time going on walks, playing with toys, exploring outside (weather permitting), and getting plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. When it’s time to relax, your pet is welcome to enjoy cuddles, belly rubs, or simply lounge nearby if they prefer their own space. For my feline guests, I provide interactive playtime, clean litter boxes, cozy places to nap, and lots of affection—always on their terms. Whether your cat loves to play or just wants a quiet companion, I’ll make sure they feel at home. Throughout the day, I stick as closely as possible to your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can see how much fun they’re having. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel like they’re on their own little vacation while giving you complete peace of mind. 🐶🐱 Every pet is treated like family because that’s exactly what they deserve. ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. For everyone’s safety, I keep pets from different households separated at all times. The only exception is pets from the same family who are already comfortable together. This helps prevent unnecessary stress and ensures every pet receives personalized attention in a calm, secure environment. Before each stay, I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, preferences, and any special needs so I can provide the best possible care. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or a senior needing extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment, provide fresh water at all times, carefully follow feeding schedules and medication instructions, and closely supervise all activities. Communication is also very important to me, so you’ll receive regular photo and video updates, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress, loving experience where your pet feels right at home and you can relax knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. 🐾❤️

Pets

A typical day

Every day starts with making sure each pet is happy and comfortable. Dogs go outside for potty breaks, walks, and playtime, while cats receive fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and interactive play or quiet companionship—whatever they enjoy most. Throughout the day, I provide plenty of one-on-one attention, enrichment, exercise, and affection. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, naps, and favorite activities. Whether your pet loves playing fetch, chasing toys, going for walks, or simply curling up for cuddles, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. For safety, pets from different households are always kept separate unless they’re from the same family. This allows every pet to relax in a calm, stress-free environment while receiving individualized care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can see how your furry family member is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home until you return. 🐾💕

I want every pet to have the safest and most enjoyable stay possible, so I’d love to learn about your pet before they arrive. Please let me know about: * Their daily routine, including feeding and potty schedule. * Any medications, allergies, or medical conditions. * Their energy level and favorite activities. * Any fears or anxieties, such as thunderstorms, fireworks, or being left alone. * How they interact with new people and other animals. * Any behavioral quirks or training cues that help them feel comfortable. * Their favorite treats, toys, sleeping habits, and anything that helps them feel at home. * Any special instructions or house rules you’d like me to follow. The more I know about your pet, the better I can provide personalized care and make their stay as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible. My goal is to keep their routine as familiar as I can while giving them plenty of love, attention, and care. 🐾❤️
