Love making new pet friends ! 🐱🐕

Pet care experience

I have house sitted many times for family & friends and I loved hanging out with the animals. I give everything I do %100 so there would be no need to worry about the care being given to your dog or car. A total pet person who really cares about the well being of the animals. These pets are your family, and I know how important their well being is to the owners. As a 2 cat, 1 dog owner, I know what it’s like to fully love and care for the animals on an everyday basis. They would get the constant care and attention they would need from me. I enjoy interacting with animals and I go on hikes and walks alone, having a walking partner is always a plus! I also enjoy good pets and relaxing for any animal that’s more low key. I’m very flexible with scheduling and can make your pet a priority when they’re with me

Sam always comes through for me and Benny, even if it’s a last minute request. She’s very flexible and I can always depend and trust her to take care of my cat.

Sam was reliable, courteous, and conscientious when she watched our fur babies! She arrived on time, followed our instructions, and sent us regular updates. We came home to a clean house, and if not happy (the fur babies are never happy when we're gone), well cared for pets. Honestly, who could ask for more? We would definitely book with Sam again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have my own apartment which is gated, and Im nearby many parks to walk any animals and I also live in a quiet neighborhood in South Park that’s safe and won’t scare anxious animals. Apartment is clean, and up to date with food and plants that are poisonous to animals

Information Samantha D. would like to know about your pet

What their day to day is. When they eat, what they eat, how much, etc. Any allergies or medications they need? Do they stay indoors or go outside for most of the day? Are they fully potty trained or should I take them out more frequently than others?

A typical day

I like to take walks around the community. I live in South Park so a very walkable neighborhood, and also shaded to keep your pets cool

I work early in the morning so I’m usually off by 2:00pm, leaves me with the rest of the day for free time. I have a cat currently who already is my daily routine so I understand the importance of every day care. My schedule changes every week so sometimes I’m off during the weekday and sometimes I’m off on weekends, so I am flexible on times and I’m quick when it comes to responding
