Hyper-vigilant caregiver here!

Pet care experience

I have 20+ years experience of animal experience and pet sitting. I moved here recently and am looking for new pets to help care for. Known for being reliable and trustworthy by all my former clients from Wisconsin, I enjoy going the extra mile (literally and metaphorically) and am in-tune with a pets unspoken needs. I’ve trained puppies and cared for senior dogs.

Sam was so amazing, as usual! I cannot thank her enough for the expert care she gives to my cats. It makes it so much easier to go away when I know they’re in her care!!! ❤️

Samantha was great with details and has a kind and professional attitude. My cats were well taken care of while I was gone!

Samantha was wonderful with our cats! They were calm and relaxed when we returned. Samantha took her time to earn trust and bond with our shy hidycat and they became friends. We found our cat sitter!! Thank you, Samantha!

Samantha was FANTASTIC!!!! I was a worried pet mom. It was our first time away from the pets. She made sure all of our dog and cat's needs were taken care of. She spent caring time with them, sent updates and photos, and definitely went above and beyond. Our animals have a go-to sitter for any of our future trips.

Safety, trust & environment

When taking care of another’s pets I would do it the way they would be cared for by their owners and more depending on their needs. I’m a firm believer in maintaining a routine and providing daily enrichment (walks/new smells, play/challenges/training games) while keeping an eye out for potential mishaps.

Information Samantha G. would like to know about your pet

Breed, temperament, routine, personality, dietary restrictions, the commands it knows, how it is on leash and with other dogs. Any other special or unique information helps too!

A typical day

It would depend on the dogs activity level, but if up for it- I would take them for a hike, a long walk, somewhere new to them (new smells do wonders for a dogs wellbeing). If time, I’d like to do basic 10 minute training games with tiny treats —I can confidently teach “leave it”, “Sit”, “Stay” , “come”. I keep in my car two “puppy packs” (backpacks that contain a water bottle, bowl, treats, a clicker, a ball, frisbee, pet wipes, bags and more). I also have my own leashes, training games, puppy puzzles & make my own dog treats!
