Outgoing, energetic, and loving

Pet care experience

Dog walking: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and know the ins and outs of dog walking. I will make sure that your dog is walking safely on the sidewalk, and I will clean up after the dog as needed. House sitting: I am a responsible individual who will take great care of your dog and your house. I am currently working a full-time job that is hybrid so I am in the office Tuesday-Thursday and working from home Monday and Friday. Drop-in visits: My full-time job is very flexible which will allow me to drop-in to take care of your dog whenever is needed. I pride myself on being timely and will always make sure that your dog is well taken care of. Boarding: My home has a fenced in backyard for the dogs to go outside and run around. I work from home 2 days a week and go into the office and do home visits the other day of the week. I currently work as a case manager for people with disabilities and love my job! I have always grown up with animals and currently have a very loving cat. I would love the opportunity to get to know your dog and care for them just as you would.

Samantha is a huge find! We are so grateful to have her sit our two goldens. She is very responsible and responsive. We can count on her for anything during her stay including picking them up from the kennel. Our dogs adore her and we feel so confident when she stays that our dogs are loved, played with, walked and cared for. Thank you Samantha!

We are so grateful to have found Samantha. I thought I would have to cancel our vacation when our senior cat was put on daily medication. I knew all would be well when Sam came by to meet Mini. Mini was so comfortable around her and Sam had no concerns about the challenge of getting a cat to take a pill each day. A huge weight was lifted and we were able to go on our vacation feeling confident that Mini was well cared for.

Samantha was very flexible with us when we needed to modify last minute and most importantly provided great care to our dogs! We hope to book with her again! :)

I am working a semi-remote job. 3 days of the week I am at home while 2 days I have to go into the office. Depending on the week will depend on which day I go into the office or if I have to at all. While I am at home, I am able to go for walks throughout the day and take the dogs out when needed!
