Information Samantha C. would like to know about your pet

Just their overall temperament and likes/dislikes. Knowing the dogs history is important like if they were rescued- how they are with a new face in their home!

A typical day

I am a big advocate on mentally stimulating dogs- things that go beyond the basic walk. Working at a shelter I’ve learned alot of enrichment techniques and tools. I LOVE using kongs and snuffle mats. Outside time is important to a happy dog- even if they are just sniffing something new it is enriching their day! I also enjoy a good Netflix binge on the couch. Your pup will be the best cuddle buddy!

Pet sitter with veterinary expertis

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name’s Sam, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve worked in animal rescue and currently work in veterinary medicine, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds — from energetic puppies and senior cats to small mammals and even a few exotics! My background allows me to recognize signs of stress or discomfort early and ensure your pets are always safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. At home, I have my own cat, Raven — a sassy 6-year-old who keeps me on my toes and reminds me every day how special the bond with our pets really is. I have a soft spot for pit bulls and American bullies, but I truly love and respect all breeds and personalities. Whether I’m stopping in for a visit or staying for a short-term sit, I’ll treat your pets like my own — with patience, care, and plenty of love.

Sam was great. My dog has some anxiety and she was great with caring for him. He does best in our house so I was thankful to find someone great and who I trusted staying our home.

Samantha is wonderful with animals. She has watched my 3 dogs, cat and chameleon every time I go away. I highly recommend her services. I know anytime I leave my animals with her that they will be loved and cared for!

Sam was an excellent sitter for our 3 dogs! She sent us updates frequently and kept our babies company while we were away! Highly recommended!
