Information Samantha F. would like to know about your pet

Ahead of time it’s good to know if your pet has any allergies or and past medical problems, if your pet is crate trained and if they are good with other animals.

A typical day

Our activities would depend on your pets activity level and interests. That could include things like chasing wand toys for kitties or just getting pets/some cuddles. Dogs we could do anything from enjoying a walk around the block or engaging in some sniff activities to really wear out the brain.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Sam! With over 15 years of professional animal care experience, I provide reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages and personalities. My background includes 10 years as a veterinary assistant, experience in professional grooming assistant, and my current role working in dog daycare. I am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and small pets, including guinea pigs and other pocket pets. My veterinary experience allows me to confidently care for senior pets, administer medications, and recognize when something may be out of the ordinary. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, patience, and attention, and I treat each one as if they were my own. You can expect dependable service, clear communication, and regular updates while your pet is in my care. My availability varies throughout the week, so please feel free to reach out to discuss your pet's needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

Sam took care of my 2 cats while I was go.e for weekend. One cat is special needs who has chronic colitis. Sam cleans up the newspapers I put down and adds more! Thank you Sam for taking care of Finn and Malley!!

Samantha visited my cat while I was away on two occasions. She was professional and took good care of things around my pet. She played with and paid extra attention when my purrbaby needed it. Overall I am satisfied.

Samantha was excellent as always! This is our fourth or fifth time having Samantha care for our senior cats and we never have to worry. She communicates after each drop in, messages with questions, and makes sure our girls get their meds even if they’re hiding. We will continue booking with Samantha and highly recommend her!
