Pet care experience

I’ve owned and taken care of a range of animals since I was 10. My mother founded a non-profit cat rescue I’ve assisted with and she still runs to this day. I also dog sat for various friends and family over the years. I have 2 cats currently and just love the sweet babies so much. I’ve also grown up rehabilitating all kinds of animals like frogs, snakes, moles, mice, ducks, the list goes on. I’m an animal lover in general and I’d love to get to hang out with some more and spoil them.

Samantha did a great job. My dog and cat seemed very happy. The house was clean and well cared for. Even the sheets and towels were washed when we got home. Will definitely be using again!

Samantha was super sweet to our two older dogs, giving them cuddles and special food, and going way above and beyond both in terms of kindness and punctuality. We would not hesitate to reach out to her again...as a matter of fact, we already HAVE ❤️ 🐾

Sam would make an excellent pet sitter and dog walker due to her deep love for animals and her responsible nature. With years of experience caring for pets, she understands their needs, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they require. Sam is also known for her reliability, always showing up on time and keeping a consistent schedule, which provides peace of mind for pet owners. Her gentle demeanor helps even the most anxious animals feel comfortable and secure in her care. Plus, her active lifestyle means she enjoys long walks and playtime, making her the perfect companion for furry friends.

I cannot recommend Sam highly enough as a pet sitter and dog walker! Sam is not only reliable and punctual, but she also has a genuine love for animals that shines through in everything she does. If you're looking for someone who is caring, attentive, and dedicated to giving your pets the best care, Sam is the perfect choice!
