Pet care experience
I love animals to the end that I now dedicate my life to them. I have worked as an emergency vet tech, to a barn with exotic animals and teaching children about animals as well as teaching adults on how to care for their furry companion and how to save their life in an emergency, to working in Veterinary medicine for wildlife and exotic animals and wildlife rehabilitation. I always wanted to work with animals ever since I was a little girl in South Africa, my mother made sure I was exposed to all aspects of the world of animals which taught me a lot and that I carried to my adult hood and through my education. I have been a dog lover my whole life. I have been working In the field of care for animals for over 7 years now, started as a dog walker, then became an obedience trainer and continued to become licensed as Pet first responder and licensed to train owners in first aide and CPR for cats and dog. I now work in the veterinary field as an on call Vet Tech. I look forward to meeting everyone and the fur kids and my fur kids love to meet new friends too. I live in New Haven with my amazing 3 legged lab mix who loves to make new friends and bring them on hiking adventures to discover new smells and introduce them to his favorite spots to find sticks and lose balls. My experience administering medication As a Veterinarian Technician I am comfortable and able to administer medications orally, sub Q, IM and IV.
Reviews
Took great care of all 4 animals. Communicated very well and went above and beyond. Highly recommended.
Sam is amazing! I will not trust my baby girl Fiona with any other sitter. Sam is loving and communicates very effectively and regularly with photos and updates. Thank you Sam for loving my baby!
Samantha took AMAZING care of our babies and our home. She sent lots of updates and photos giving us peace of mind. Our very shy cat even came out to get cuddles with Samantha. She left our house so clean as well! She made us some special homemade popcorn as a coming home gift. A very thoughtful added touch.we will definitely use Samantha again when we travel.
Samantha was fantastic with my two kitties, allowing me to relax and enjoy my trip to my reunion. One is very withdrawn with strangers or strange noises in the house, but she patiently coaxed him out after several days so that he was comfortable eating with Samantha present. I will definitely look for her for future sitting and visiting requirements while I’m away.

Information Samantha B. would like to know about your pet
I always like to meet all the pups to make sure they are comfortable with me. If you would like your pup to do the hikes it is important that they are dog friendly. Up to date on all Vaccines are very important.
A typical day
I can happily take your pup around the block to stretch their legs or for an amazing group hiking adventure on local trails that last from an hour to and hour and a half. I do recommend that all dogs are up to date with flea and tick medication and up to date on all vaccines.
