Safety, trust & environment

My goal as your pet sitter is to stick to their normal routine to minimize stress and keep them happy. I want to make them feel as comfortable as possible with me being there. This includes lots of play time, cuddles, and treats. Overnights- I will be with your pets the majority of the day. I will leave for occasional drop ins (if it's on my schedule) and come back to your house. At night I stay with the pets throughout the night. During my stay, I will also send pictures and updates as well. Drop ins- i will play with them and send time with them for the duration I'm there. I will also feed and give fresh water during that time as well. During my visit I will send pictures and updates. I can administer meds if needed and will do everything to make sure your fur baby is safe and happy

Information Samantha C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any special needs or on medications. If you have a nervous pup, I need to know so that I can approach the situation in the safest way possible for both me and your pup If your fur baby has any allergies, please let me know.

A typical day

A typical day with your pets includes exercise, outside time, playing with their favorite toys, mental stimulation to keep them busy, lots of treats and plenty of cuddles. I do basic grooming such as bath, brush, and blowout upon request as well

Pet care experience

I’m a shepherd owner and I also have a few cats❤️. I also feed the ferals and strays around the neighborhood. I’ve worked with animals of all kinds since I was 14 years old volunteering at an animal hospital and continued to work with animals from there on. I’ve also worked at and managed a local rescue for many years. I have experience in large breeds to include shepherds, mals, cane corsos, bull terriers, pitbulls (my heart), and many other breeds. I have medical experience as well so I am able to administer shots (if needed) and medications. I’m currently a foster for out of state rescues and temporarily hold dogs at my home for them until they are ready to leave the state for adoption. This is why I do not do boarding at home yet. I work with dogs of all ages and size. I am open to working with other animals as well!! I do have experience in exotics and avian.

This is the second time we had Samantha watch our pups for us while we were out of town and quite honestly the only person we will use if we go away. I get anxiety leaving my little pups and knowing they are with her I stress far less. I am so appreciative of her and how she loves and cares for my pups!

Samantha was great filling in for an extension to a trip. She was great with communicating and responding to setting up the care of our two dogs. Our dogs were comfortable with her. She kept us informed as we made connections between planes. We will definitely use her again when we need someone to stay with our dogs.

Samantha was absolutely amazing. I have four dogs who require a lot of attention—three American Bullies and one 17-year-old Staffy who needs around-the-clock care—so leaving them with someone new was a big deal for me. From the start, Samantha had excellent communication, kept me updated regularly, and made me feel completely at ease during her first time dog sitting for us. Because of her, I was able to focus on where I was instead of worrying about my pups back home. I would absolutely trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive.
