Pet care experience

Un'leashing' my animal passion

Neighbors, friends and family have been relying on me to watch their pets since I was a teenager. I've even fostered dogs from two different animal shelters. In my opinion, babysitting dogs is a tail-wagging adventure filled with love, laughter, and endless cuddles. As a devoted dog sitter/walker, I cherish the opportunity to shower these furry friends with attention and care, and let their energy flourish.

Samantha was amazing with our 2 elderly guys. She really made the most of her drop ins with them including puzzles and lots of pets! Would definitely use her again.

I honestly cannot recommend her enough! I trust very few people to watch my dog because he is truly like my child, so finding someone I feel completely comfortable leaving him with is incredibly important to me. I could tell she wasn’t just going to welcome my dog into her home—she was genuinely going to love and care for him like one of her own. She was wonderful, flexible, caring, and so easy to work with. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he is in someone’s hands who truly loves animals and treats them with so much care and affection. The photo updates she sent were very much appreciated. We will absolutely continue using her services for as long as she’ll have us! We feel so lucky to have found someone we can trust with our sweet boy. ❤️🐾

First time using Samantha. She sent daily updates with photos, which I really appreciated. Greta and Cash had a great time and loved the playtime and attention from her kids. They were exhausted when they got home LOL. We will definitely use Samantha in the future.

Schedule

I work full-time but have flexibility around my schedule. I am up early in the mornings, available for early morning walks, and check-ins. I am also available in the evenings for walks, exercise, cuddles, feedings etc. I do have two children who are used to being around cats and dogs. If you'd like - they can join and if your pet is *not* good with kids, I can leave them at home.
