Big animal family!

Pet care experience

I have lived with dogs and cats my whole life and have raised a few from puppies and kittens and love taking care of animals. I have experience taking care of our friends and family's dogs frequently when they need it, checking in on them, and also have fostered and rescued quite a few dogs and cats over the years. I did Rover for a while and love all animals and am very patient with any scared or shy animals. I make sure to give them the time they need to adjust and move at their pace!

Sam watched our pups for 6 days and nights. She was exceptional with timely communication and is naturally very good with dogs. She made sure to take extra care of our old boy who didn't want to eat while we were gone. She even went so far as to go get more deli meat from the store, twice, to contine to get him to eat. Additionally, when I had a concern about the timing of visits, she was very kind and receptive to the feedback and we were able to continue the rest of the visits with the same level of kindness as if there had never been a concern. It was a relief to have someone as reliable as her taking care of our puppers while we were out.

Sam was an absolute delight, going above and beyond for my cats! She sent pictures after every visit (even the cats that like to hide under the bed), brought in food that was delivered, and kept up communication throughout the drop-in visits. Will definitely be booking her again!

Samantha cared for my kitty with the same love and sweetness I give to my kitty. The food, water, and litterbox were all handled just right. The daily check-in photos showed my kitty loved to have a little time on Samantha's lap and that Sam always gave Fantastico the best skritches. To top it off, communication with Samantha was open, easy, and thorough. She is the best cat sitter I have ever used!

Sam took such good care of my kitty! The pictures alone show how patient and attentive she was to him, and her communication further ensured me that he was in perfectly safe and careful hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I’ve very protective of my own animals to ensure they don’t escape and are safe and good. That’s the same mentality I use as I know how important your pet is to you!

Information Samantha G. would like to know about your pet

Is the dog friendly with other dogs and are they cat friendly? Any history of possessiveness with food/toys/treats? How big and how good are they at walking?

A typical day

I live close to the park so I’m to take them for walks and I am use to playing with higher energy animals wether it’s in their own backyard or when the dog parks aren’t as busy. I like to figure out what you usually do to not introduce too many new things.
