I’m a vet tech & dog trainer

Pet care experience

I have been working as a vet technician for a little over 2 years now & absolutely obsessed with fur babies. I have extensive knowledge in taking care of your pet as a tech, a trainer, and a dog mama. I’m a certified dog trainer and have experience training puppies as well as adult dogs-whether it’s basic obedience or CGC training-I am very patient and love all dogs! I can run, walk and throw some training in there if needed/wanted. I absolutely love working with dogs and my dream is to one day have my own business. I have also taught and provided therapy for kids with autism for 7 years within Loudoun County Public School and private companies. So, we can all say I may know a bit about animal and child behavior :) I’ve also worked as an independent contractor for 2 separate dog walking/sitting companies, as well as provide services on my own. I’m very excited to continue working with dogs and hope to gain more clients through Rover, not only for dog sitting/walking but most importantly, dog training.

Samantha was amazing with our fur-baby Cisco. She sent photos and videos to show the fun time he was having with her! She was completely honest on her schedule and ensured our wants for our dog were met. She kept Cisco happy and will absolutely user her again!

Sam watched our black lab, Jake, for us while we went away for a family vacation. Our dog has anxiety and we knew boarding him would not work for us. Sam came over and met our dog a couple times prior to us leaving and we had no worries leaving him with her. She loves dogs!! She was friendly, playful, and loving to him. She followed our directions we left and even gave us updates while we were away. Sam is trustworthy and will treat your dog with love! I would highly recommend her!

I’m unfortunately not available to dog sit at clients’ homes as I have a senior dog of my own, as well as a 4 month old son.

Information Samantha A. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what your dog’s temperament is like, if they have any limits in exercise, and whether or not medication has to be distributed during my visit. I am also in training to learn dog CPR.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dogs physically but also mentally. I know plenty of games to play with them so they can get the exercise they need. If they’re friendly with other dogs, I love bringing my pup along for the ride and letting him and your pet play with one another. Whether that be in your backyard or at the dog park, I will always make sure your dog is taken care for as I would my own.

I am not as available as I’d like to be. However, as I gain more clients, I may start working less at my current job and more as a dog walker. Currently, I’m available all day Tuesdays and Thursday mornings/afternoons, & most weekends.
