Pet care experience

Treats Every Pet Like Family

I’ve always had a love for animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors, providing walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, medication when needed, and lots of love. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. Whether your pet loves adventures, belly rubs, or quiet cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve while you’re away.

Samantha was great to work with!! She sent lots of pictures and updates during my dogs stay and I could tell she was getting lots of love in Samantha’s care. My dog clearly loved her!

Nya had a lovely time staying with Samantha! She was so accommodating to all of Nya’s medications and preferences. I loved all of the photo updates Samantha sent me throughout Nya’s stay with her. Would happily have her watch my pup anytime in the future! So glad that we found her through Rover :)

Sam came and took care of our cat and was amazing! He had had a great time with her and she was very responsible, caring, and professional.

Sam is truly a gem. She treats my dog as if she was her own and takes lots of pictures! I recommend her to everyone I know. She’s the best!

Samantha has watched our dog, Chloe well over a dozen times. She’s fantastic, and cares deeply about the animals she watches. Samantha follows all care instructions very closely. Chloe always comes home with no issues, and we get plenty of picture updates from Chloe. Out of all the people who’ve watched our dog over the years, Samantha is the best, and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Whether your pet needs daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or weekend attention, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. I’m a student so I’m away from home a few hours at a time! I believe pets thrive with consistency, so I’ll make sure they stay on their normal routine while giving them plenty of playtime, affection, and companionship.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I always follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. I pay close attention during walks and playtime to keep pets safe and comfortable. I provide a calm, loving environment where pets can relax, have fun, and feel at home. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and plenty of photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.

A typical day

I try my best to match your pets energy. I’ll play if they want to play or I’ll just hang with them on the couch if they’re into that!
