Pet care experience

Your Dog’s New Best Friend!

I have been a devoted animal lover and pet owner throughout my entire life. For years, I’ve been the go-to person for neighbors, friends, and family when they need someone reliable to feed, play with, and look after their dogs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take pride in providing the same level of care and affection I give my own animals. Whether it's a high-energy walk or just some quiet companionship, your pet will be in safe, loving hands.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, safety and routine are my top priorities. I am extremely respectful of your space and follow all care instructions to the letter—including feeding schedules, leash safety, and securing your home. I focus on keeping your pet happy and tired through interactive play and neighborhood walks, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you are away.

Samantha was a life saver. We needed someone on very short notice to drop in and let our dog out and she was quick to respond and step in! We will definitely be using her when we need someone to watch our pup in the future!

Samantha is such a loving, calm and gentle human being and will treat your fur babies with love and respect. Their well being and happiness is truly her priority and I've never met a dog that did not love her. There is no one I would trust more to take care of sweet pups than Sam. She is fantastic at keeping in contact and is the safest, most caring person to treat your babies like her own. I can't recommend her services enough.

My crazy 3-year-old goldendoodle Cosmo stays with Samantha when I'm out of town. I know he is in the best care with her and her dog, Max, who is so sweet and playful with my dog. Samantha gives such good care, keeping him fed, loved, walked, and played with until his heart is content. She makes sure your dog is up to date on vaccines, and she made sure she had my vet's number in case of emergency. Cosmo-dog is so excited every time he sees her and Max. If you are looking for dependable, loving care for your dog, I would highly recommend Samantha.

Samantha has watched my dogs many times. Not only does she take great care of my dogs but she loves them. I never have to worry they aren’t being cared for and that makes a vacation more enjoyable.

Schedule

I work a flexible, part-time remote schedule from home, which gives me great availability throughout the day. I can easily step away for mid-day walks, feeding, and potty breaks. Whether your pup needs a quick check-in or a longer playtime session, my flexible hours allow me to be there when you need me most, including weekdays and weekends.
