Pet care experience

Home full time & fenced backyard 🤍

I have had animals my whole life. I grew up in a house with at least 5 dogs so I have been taking care of them for years. I am a pawrent myself of one dog, her name is Ivy and she is a Samoyed (very friendly and loving) so I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone you don't know, we will do our best to make sure your fur baby feels like home the whole time they are here! :)

Samatha is the best ever. I was so anxious to go on vacation and leave my baby Bodie, as soon as I met Samantha and Ivy I knew he was going to be ok and he was going to have so much fun. Thank you so much Samantha.

Samantha and her boyfriend took such good care of Maverick! They treated him like he was their own and he got along so well with their dog Ivy😊 We will definitely use Samantha again!

Samantha was absolutely amazing with Bentley! I was out of the country during his stay, and she kept me updated the entire time with messages and videos, which really put my mind at ease. It meant so much to see how well he was doing and to know he was in such great hands. She is incredibly sweet, patient, and clearly cares about the pets she watches. My return flight ended up getting messed up and caused some scheduling issues for pickup, but Samantha was so understanding and worked with me while I figured everything out. She adjusted without any complaints and was very courteous about the whole situation. I truly appreciate her kindness and flexibility. I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💛

Samantha was great. My dog Max suffers from anxiety and I was very worried about him. He was anxious the first night but Samantha was patient and calmed him (and me 😀) down. I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about him the entire time. She is going to be my go-to dog sitter from now on.

Schedule

I work remotely so I will be home full time watching your babies. I am typically up by 8am so that's when I will take them for their first walk then breakfast after. I also have a fenced in backyard so they will have plenty of playtime outside and lots of bathroom breaks.
