I take care of pets in clients homes by ensuring the dog has all of its needs met. I always make sure to spend extra quality time with the dog if I noticed that it is feeling sad that its owners are away.

Pet care experience

I love dogs and I love taking them out and about on walks! I have taken care of many dogs from the age of 2 to 16. My most recent experience includes taking care of senior dogs.

I don't usually write reviews, but Samantha really impressed me with her care. This was my first trip away from my dog, Rufus, and I was feeling pretty anxious about hiring a stranger to take care of my baby while I was gone for four days. Samantha, however, was very communicative and kind from the start and was great at updating me with photos throughout each day. I could tell Rufus was really getting along well with her as well, so I'll definitely be reaching out to her again for future travels!

Samantha has always been an animal lover - her childhood dream was previously to be a veterinarian. Though she later pivoted into education and teaches elementary school now, the underlying principle remains. She has a passion for taking care of others, especially those that are more vulnerable and need it (such as pets and kids). Having known her all my life, I’ve seen her take care of dogs and cats myself, and can confidently vouch for her when I say that your pet will be in good hands with her, even if just for a nice stroll around the neighborhood. Samantha cares deeply for all under her wing - and your pet will come back home to let you know!

Samantha is a reliable and loyal dog sitter. She has helped us many times by taking care of my poodle, and my dog is always so happy whenever he sees her. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and I really think that comes from who she is as a person. It gives me peace of mind knowing my dog is in such good hands, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their furry friend.
