Communication and Compassion

Pet care experience

My goals as a sitter are: 1. always to make sure you feel safe and comfortable leaving your pet, 2. to ensure you return to a very happy healthy pet, and 3. exhibit strong communication with plenty of updates and photos so you don't have to wonder how your pet is doing, I have pets too so I know what its like to leave them with someone else. I've been pet sitting for over 10 years and I foster dogs with a local rescue organization. I’m active and love being outside, I’m happy to just hang out outside with your pup or enjoy a long walk or jog. At other times I love to curl up on the couch with a pet and give lots of cuddles and love. I have a 3year old, 19lb corgi who will be present for sittings or daycare at my home. She’s very accustomed to meeting new pets since we sit and foster very often. I request meet and greets if you’re interested in boarding or day care. I love doing drop-in visits for cats and I’m very good at reading a cats body language to tell if a cat wants me to interact or play with them. Please reach out with any questions or comments - there is no detail too small or question too specific! * Please make it known to me if your pet requires 24/7 supervision for boarding requests. * I will send you a daily photos of your pet and you can reach out directly to my cell phone for an update anytime and I’m happy to accommodate requests for updates at a specific time of each day. * Please provide whatever treats your pet likes if your pet has dietary restrictions. * I always have dog toys available in my home but please feel free to bring your pets favorite toy for day care or boarding.

Samantha took great care of our cats while we were away. We have one shy/anxious cat who she was able to connect with. She was communicative and we knew our girls were in good hands.

Information Samantha C. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know if your dog has loud continuous barking tendencies, as I do try to be courteous to the neighbors. Please inform me of medical issues, behavioral issues, and if your dog is not house-trained so I can plan best for your the stay. Please inform me of how many walks per day you would like, if you don't have a preference then I usually give a minimum of 3 walks per day. For cats, please share their preferences and friendliness level, I am very good at reading if cats want to be approached or interact and will trust your input on your cats behaviors.

A typical day

I am very active and I am always happy to take your dog for a long walk or a jog if your pet would enjoy that! I love being outside so happy to just post up outside with your pup. Long walks or active playtime is great too! When I'm not active I love to curl up on the couch with a pup/cat and give the pet lots of cuddles and love.
