Safety, trust & environment

In the clients home, I’m only going to do what is required and requested for the petsitting time period. If there are any additional notes that I need to know, particularly for the pets needs then I will need to know before I arrive at the location. I implement a set schedule to ensure I can meet the requirements of all of my clients accordingly and efficiently, so that I’m sure I’m prepared for anything in the owners absence.

Information Samantha E. would like to know about your pet

I’ve worked with a wide range of dog breeds coming from a lot of different sizes. I love dogs all the same no matter the size or shape. Especially cats, I take care of my own cats like babies. If there’s anything I need to know before arriving, please message before hand!

A typical day

Typically depends on what the pet prefers to do, like tug-of-war or playing fetch. Otherwise, I try different activities that stimulate their minds and keeps them engaged, taking walks around the backyard, play fighting, cuddling, talking, or chasing a laser! I also occasionally love to train dogs because I’m intrigued with how they develop their skills over time, and help’s me to learn their personalities better! I’m not a professional trainer, but you’ll definitely come home to perfect little angels!

Pets

Experienced Dog/Puppy Sitter

Pet care experience

I had 2 dogs, a shibu-chi mix and shitzu females that act like adorable little sisters. My sister also owns 2 dogs, a little black poodle dog and pitbull-terrier mix, both of whom I love so very much! I’ve had to petsit for her many years, so I am familiar working with big dogs. In the Philippines, I had a grey puppy named Jamie, that was a very rare and intelligent breed! By the time I had to fly back to the states, he was potty-trained and knew basic commands(sit, stay, paw, etc.) I hope to own my own big dog someday!

Samantha is a caring and loving woman with the upmost respect for animals and children. Samantha understands responsibility and the importance of safety. Sam is a very handworker, and she is very skilled and diligent with any task she needs to perform. Sam has watched and walked my dog, and I can confidently say she is the best caretaker I've had the pleasure of working with.

Hello, I am a dear friend to Samantha. If I could use a phrase to describe her it would absolutely be animal/pet lover! She has many animals herself she takes great care for. Even building them their own areas. Making their own toys. She goes to great lengths for her own pets, she would be the perfect person for this job. She is incredibly responsible, always writing her lists for projects she’s doing for her pets. As well as their schedule. She has watched my pets while I have been on vacation. She has been great at understanding and researching about each individual pet as well.
