Skills
Safety, trust & environment
At home setting & house sitting options I let out the dog first thing in the morning then give them breakfast, possibly an enrichment treat to keep them busy. Leave for work. Come back leave them go potty, give them dinner and play with them for a little. For walks pick up the dog ask if the individual dog gets overwhelmed or reactive, tugs etc anything that would be helpful information. Take the dog on a walk let the owner know the length of time their dog will be gone. Same goes for hikes, I will have treats to reward good behavior.
Information Samantha D. would like to know about your pet
If the dog or cat is reactive to other animals or people. On any medication and how to give the medication. Blind or has an old injury to watch out for. If they need more frequent potty breaks. Separation anxiety etc.
A typical day
Let the animal go potty in the morning. Afternoon and evening. Clean litter box if there is a cat. Play an enriching game of tug of war. Keep the dog company. Do an enrichment activity Kong & peanut butter ball. Going for a nice morning stroll for any extra wiggles.

Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Sam :) I currently work at North Utah Valley Animal Shelter. I am skilled at cleaning up after animals, walking, giving medication and playing with your pet young or old. I have worked with dogs, cats and rabbits. I own a german wirehaired pointer she is very high energy and the best companion for my family. I am able to take on high energy dogs as well.
Reviews
Samantha has watched my cat, Khaleesi, while I was out of town for Thanksgiving weekend. She would feed her and play with her and sent me pics and videos helping me feel at ease while on vacation. She has also watched and walked my dog, Leo (a boxer), he’s a pretty high energy dog. He’s always excited to see her and seems to enjoy the walks she takes him on. I would highly recommend her. -Claira
