Pet care experience
I love dogs of all shapes and person alities. In the last 20+ years I have fostered both large and small dogs of all kinds as well as cared for many different show dogs. I am absolutely head over heels for my Kerry and have loved my past bichon, standard poodle and rotweillers that I lost at a ripe old ages. As an ambitious groomer with a decade and a half's experinece I developed an attention to detail and safety as a pet care professional. I continue my education in Dogs and thier nuances; taking a course, Dog Cognition, offered by Duke University, as well as other pet care and behavior related classes/seminars. I'm sensitive to behavior and physical issues that can arise with your pet(s) and I genuinely care about their experience. I am also particularly experinced in identifying grooming related issues and suggestions to provide solutions. I see dogs as their own sentient beings and our scentific research is beginning to show the intelligence they posess. I live in well finished tiny home on a non working farm with a fenced yard. There are also many places to explore on walks nearby.
Reviews
Sam was incredible when we took our 9 day vacation out of the country. I felt confident and relaxed on vacation as she sent many updates and many photos which I appreciated so so much we will use her anytime. We are going out of town for a vacation or even just for doggy daycare! Both our pups loved her and she is very educated! Thanks again!
Samantha is the best :) she cares about my boy so much! She goes above and beyond
Samantha was great with asking questions to learn about Kuma. She gave him lots of attention, sent cute pictures, and “pupdates”. He made himself at home. Thank you for loving on my boy!
I cannot say enough good things about my dog’s stay with Samantha! She is so kind, flexible, and really cares about the dogs she takes care of. Also, her place is very tidy, clean, and cozy! Cheyenne seemed so at home there. My dog had a blast playing with Cyn (Samantha’s beautiful dog!) and I know she must have been sad leaving when I picked her up. Samantha sent me daily updates, pictures and videos of my girl (which I loved!! Her photography skills are amazing!). I felt so at ease about leaving Cheyenne in her care. I’m definitely going to her from now on with my dog boarding needs! Highly recommend!

In your home I am happy to learn your pet's routine and help to keep that familiarity while you're away. In my tiny home on a farm I have a fence yard and lots of places to walk and explore. Coming here is an entire experience. My 2 year old 30 lb Kerry Blue Terrier (responsibly not neutered in case that is important) loves to meet new friends, happily welcoming them into our home. He has never shown aggression even playing with other intact males. ) that loves playing with other dogs but was also taught to be respectful of their social cues. He's been great with both small and extra large dogs as he was raised with a senior small dog and has friends of all sizes and play styles.
Home
Information Samantha B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about your pup; any special needs/health issues to be aware of, any behavior issues to watch or training to reinforce, their personality (play style if boarding in my home or daycare), and an overview of their normal routine.
A typical day
I will look for walks around the residence and will look forward to exploring the area together taking the individual's preferences into consideration. If your dog is energetic and inquisitive we will go at a fast pace and explore places/things along the way. If your dog is more of the shy or lower geared personality we will stoll at a leisurely pace and maybe try to overcome that shyness by building confidence. Staying in my home is an entire experience. We spend most of our time together outside with my door open. We also have a pond the pups like to watch behind us with ducks and geese and even pelicans. Treats and food allergies are discussed to avoid issues.
