Available often! Former groomer!

Pet care experience

Hi, there! I’ve owned dogs since I was a child and have always loved spending time with them! Getting to know their personalities is one of my favorite things to do! About a year ago I adopted the goofiest, most adorable pup in the world; Winnie! She’s an absolute firecracker 🧨. I also recently adopted a chihuahua, named Waylon, who is just the softest sweetest boy! I worked in a grooming salon for just under a year as a bather. I am well-versed in bathing, deshedding, nail clipping and grinding, and would love to perform those services on your pups if needed! I work 9-5 Monday thru Friday at a nearby assisted living facility. Willing to travel further than 10 miles for overnight stays. I will be sure to take the best care of your pups! Very attentive and loving :-).

Sam has had dogs her whole life in a personal context and worked for a while as a PetsMart dog groomer and would send me pictures and tell me stories about all the dogs she loved at work. She loves animals, and is a nurturing person in general who is happy to take on the responsibility of caring for them.

Safety, trust & environment

I will always ensure the your dog is leashed while outside of secured areas, that there aren’t any hazardous foods/drinks/products within reach of your pet, and that wherever they go is safe to walk for them. Ensuring that safety of your pet is my #1 priority.

Information Sam Z. would like to know about your pet

I would just like to know if they have any history of aggression! I would really like to ensure the safety of your pet, myself, and any other pets nearby.

A typical day

There are lots of lovely walking trails nearby my house as well as a dog park on the property. Of course there’s plenty of opportunity for a game of tug in the house, too!
