Pet care experience

Caring pet lover--flex schedule!

I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I grew up with 3 amazing dogs (a Maltese, Brussels Griffon, & Bearded Collie) and I pet sit for my friends/family all the time. I will customize my care of your dog based on the instructions and feedback provided by you. I look forward to discussing your dog care needs with you. Always responsive, feel free to contact me whenever you need.

This was my dog’s 2nd time staying with Samantha for a long weekend away, she took him to the dog park a few times, sent daily updates, and I appreciated that her apartment is super clean. Thanks Samantha!

Samantha did an awesome job watching Gatsby. She was attentive, provided constant updates, and had great communication. You should have no concerns with her watching your pet!

My dog stayed with Samantha for 3 nights and had a great time. Samantha was attentive and took him to the dog park every day. She was proactive with photos and updates which I appreciated!

My husband and I went away and I was so nervous to find someone to look after our three pitbull dogs! after looking for a sitter I found Samantha and she exceeded our expectations! Not only did she send us photos of the pups making sure we knew how they were doing, she took the time to keep in touch with us and even spent quality time with the pups. She was super nurturing and loving towards them and the pups loved her so much. She is super reliable and consistent now that we have used Samantha many times. The second she walks in the house the dogs tails start wagging. Couldn’t recommend her enough!

Schedule

I am pretty flexible. I can pet-sit your dog during the day in my apartment and take him/her out for walks throughout the day. I can also board any night of the week as long as you provide me with notice. I work from home so I am home everyday and my work schedule is flexible so I can take the dogs out for walks many times throughout the day and play with them often!

Safety, trust & environment

I recently relocated from NYC to Delray Beach, Florida, and live in a spacious apartment in a dog-friendly building. I live alone and currently do not have any pets of my own. My new home is in a pet-friendly community, and I’m excited to be able to spend more time outdoors in South Florida. Delray Beach has several dog-friendly parks and walking areas, including Lake Ida Dog Park. I love being around dogs and would love to welcome a furry friend into my home when the opportunity arises. I have a spacious, comfortable apartment and live a relatively quiet lifestyle, so I’m happy to provide a calm and loving environment for a dog while their owner is away.

A typical day

I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, fresh air, and playtime throughout the day! I’ll take them on multiple walks every day and, when appropriate, take them to a nearby dog-friendly park to socialize and play with other dogs. I also love playing fetch with a ball or their favorite toy, so we’ll make sure they get plenty of fun, active playtime and their daily exercise. I’ll give your pup lots of attention, love, and companionship while they’re in my care!
