Pet care experience

caring, loving, active, fun

My name is Samantha F. and I absolutely love animals. This past summer I worked at the Animal Humane Society and handled all sorts of furry friends. I have experience watching small animals like kittens, and very large animals like Great Danes. Although dogs are my favorite animals I love all of them and I want to help you keep your animal loved and happy at all times! My energetic character will keep your animal active, and my loving character will I’ve them all the snuggles they need. I have handled four puppies at a time in a room full of children and everything went smoothly! I’m hoping that I can help you when you need it! And I hope that I am a good option for you!

Very grateful to Samantha for looking out for Raava, she enjoys what she does and made sure to care and enjoy time with welcoming her during the booking. I’m so glad to have found her as a safe and reliable person to take care of Raava!!

Samantha is the best! Super communicative and flexible. She sends the cutest photos, asks all the right questions, and was so responsible with our boy. We will be using her again!!

First time using Rover and Samantha was so great. She did a great job of easing any anxieties I had about leaving my boy. She was very communicative and really cared about making my dog comfortable.

Samantha did a great job watching Winston! She sent daily pics/updates, took him on a lot of walks (despite bad weather in Chicago most of the weekend) and spent a ton of time with him. We felt very comfortable the whole time we were out of town and would love to have Samantha watch Winston again. Thanks so much!
