Pet care experience

Animal lover w years of experience

I’m a lifelong dog lover with over a decade of experience caring for pups of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I’m 30 years old and have been around dogs my entire life—raising my own, caring for pets in my community, and even working in a vet clinic as both a receptionist and tech. I have taken 3 different training courses with my dogs over the years and have looked after 3 dogs in hospice. I’ve also volunteered at shelters and helped with events to support rescue animals, so I understand just how important it is to find someone who truly gets your pet. Whether it’s daily walks or a drop-in visit, I treat every dog as if they’re my own—loved, safe, and completely spoiled with attention. With me, your pet will always be in caring, capable hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I take care of your pets with the upmost professional care. If you have a fenced yard I will go out with the pet to watch after them, I can take them on walks, and make sure they have fresh water and food in their bowl.

Samantha is great with my cat! She’s checked in several times and is always so communicative. I love getting the pictures and updates while I'm away. I'll definitely be booking her again!

Samantha took very good care of Milo! She was attentive to him and his needs and I very much appreciate that she was able to watch him over a holiday!

Samatha was AMAZING! Our second time using her and we were so thrilled that she was able to accommodate us over the holidays. Our very shy kitty also finally let her see her, and it was a big relief to us. She was very communicative, helpful and is the sweetest person ever. Highly recommended using her!

Amazing! Excellent communication and makes sure she has all her details. Seeing the photos of my puppy in her care really made me feel like he was having a good time with her. She was great and even helped with light training.

Samantha so kindly fit us in last minute for our very shy kitty and we were super grateful! She was incredibly sweet and accommodating, and even though our cat will not come out of hiding for anyone but us, she still talked to her, was willing to hang out for a bit etc, and we really appreciated it. Definitely would highly recommend her!
