Leave your Fur Babies in SAFE hands

Pet care experience

I grew up with my mom being an independent animal rescuer. So essentially my whole life I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, and rabbits. That being said, I’m not afraid to get dirty! I am comfortable administering medications and cleaning wound care. At the age of 13 I started to walk my neighbors dogs and have always helped out friends and family members with their fur babies ever since. I’ve also been vegan for the last 7 years and have volunteered with farm animal sanctuaries. I have a deep passion and love for all animals.

Great with my dog and you can tell she really cares about animals. Samantha takes time to listen and makes sure she understands any needs your animal has and will ask for clarification is she’s unsure. 100% recommend Samantha if you’re wanting someone trustworthy and caring towards your animals.

I highly recommend Samantha! Her responsibility and love for all animals shines through in everything she does! She is extremely trustworthy and goes above and beyond to take care of animals. She’s genuinely the best pet sitter I’ve ever had the pleasure of having!!! She will take the best care of your fur-babies!!!

Hello I have been in Rescue for 30 years and I can honestly say that Samantha is a true blue animal advocate. She has donated her time to animal sanctuary’s and has pet sit, including dog walking, for numerous families and friends. I personally trust her implicitly and wouldn’t hesitate to have her care for my furbabies. She has an excellent work ethic and has a heart of gold when it comes to any animal in need. She will go above and beyond to help and she is extremely driven. Samantha has also assisted in rescues of many animals and has spent numerous hours doing so. She has walked my 6 dogs for quite some time and she is the only person I would allow care for my pets. Being in rescue and working on animal and abuse cases we tend to find out who can be trusted and who cannot. Hands down she is the most amazing, compassionate, loving, loyal and trustworthy human being. She will treat your animal as if they were her own and takes extreme caution when it comes to the safety and well-being of your animals. She’s the best!

Safety, trust & environment

I have two dogs myself. They are my family. I have very high standards when it comes to their care and safety. I am extremely particular with whom I trust to take care of them in my absence. So I fully understand the importance of being confident in who you allow to take care of your pets.

Information Samantha D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pup has any special commands they know or any medical attention I need to be aware of. Also if you prefer to give them tap or filtered water.

A typical day

If we’re on a walk, I let your pup stop and sniff till their hearts content. If your pup is reactive, I will be constantly scanning our surroundings and hold a high level of awareness. If your pup is okay off leash we will play fetch if that’s up their alley!
