Pet care experience

My husband and I are life-long animal lovers that recently moved to South Bend with our fur-baby, Kenzie. We were her foster family and just couldn't bear the thought of giving her up, so now she is stuck with us! She loves to play with any and all dogs, and we know she would love to have a doggy sibling, but since we aren't able to adopt a second dog right now, we'd love to spend time spoiling yours! I am a student at Notre Dame and have a very flexible schedule so our pup (and yours) never has to be alone for more than 4 hours. A typical day usually includes a morning walk, alternating napping and playing throughout the day either inside the house or in the fenced yard, then an evening walk and more playtime until bed. Extra perk - since we just moved to the area and hardly know anyone yet, we rarely have plans other than to hang out at home spoiling Kenzie. Extra perk #2 - our downstairs has no furniture yet, so there is a large room for pups to run around in on bad weather days! We truly treat our pup as part of (really, the center of) our little family, and we would be more than happy to welcome your pup into our home as well. *We prefer to meet you and your pup before we pet-sit, but can waive that for special exceptions.

Samantha loves animals than any person I've ever met. She treats animals with the same care and attention most people reserve for their own children.

Auggie had a great time with Samantha and Kenzie! Samantha was really easy to communicate with and kept us updated on how Auggie was doing. We would definitely have Auggie stay again if we are back in town!

Samantha has been one of my best friends for over 7 years, we have been through thick and thin together; there are not many other individuals I would trust anything in my life with but she is one of them. Before I met Samantha I would have characterized myself as a big pet and animal lover, well she has shown me up, she is the greatest animal and pet lover I have ever come in contact with and she exudes that everyday. She is fully invested in every animal she comes in contact with and loves them for their unique characteristics, appearances and personalities. She will invest all of her into any animal put in her care and love them like her own without a moment hesitation.

Samantha has been an animal lover her whole life . She has been taking car of animals ever since she was a little girl and loves them all. She is compassionate, caring and will give your dog plenty of love while taking care of it. I would not heistate to have her take care of your dog while you are away . It will become part of her fur family !
