Pet care experience

Caring, loving & responsible!

Hello! My name is Samantha, or Sam. I am a huge animal lover in general, dogs and cats especially. My personal experience goes back to my childhood days of helping take care of the family pets, all the way to current date of caring for my own fur babies. I have 10+ years experience of caring for and walking dogs for friends, family and co-workers. I have cared for and walked dogs of all ages and sizes. I am a Safe Space person and apart of the LGBTQ+ community. I currently have a flexible schedule, allowing me to be available to you and your furry friend's every need! Walks will be no less than 30 minutes long, ensuring your dog(s) gets all the physical activity needed for the day. Can provide up to 2 walks per day. Drop-in visits will include feeding, watering, allowing a potty break and a 30 minute play break. Can provide up to 2 drop-ins per day.

Samantha did a great job taking care of our dog Tim and he loved her. She kept in regular contact with us, took him for walks, and treated him like he was her own. She also took care of the house, plants, and a visiting fish. We highly recommend Samantha.

My mind was at ease with Samantha watching over my beloved and precious dog and grandog. She was quick to respond and kept me updated on their daily playtime. She stayed with them overnight to make sure no 3 am possum chasing would annoy my neighbors . House was pristine on my return and I think Ozzie was disappointed I wasn’t her! They loved all the attention and did fabulous.

Samantha is excellent. I don’t have any worries when she’s with my pup. Always on time, super respectful of my dog and space, and reasonably priced.

Sam was fantastic! It was so nice knowing our fur babies were in good hands. Sam would text us pictures of our babies, which I loved. We will definitely use Sam again.

Please let me know if your furry friend has any special needs/treatments or behavioral habits that I need to be aware of. I have a lot of experience with high anxiety animals.
