Highlights
Pet care experience
Intuitive & reliable pet sitter
I grew up with dogs and had cats as pets as an adult. I love both dogs and cats (and all animals) but have the most experience with these two. I can do dog walks, grooming for both dogs and cats, drop ins for feeding, bathroom and any other needs, overnight stays and longer term stays if needed! Please note: I'm happy to travel for meet & greets and bookings, but for locations more than 15 miles from me will include a travel fee due to distance and fuel costs. Please message prior to booking if you are outside this range. Thanks for understanding - it helps me keep providing reliable care for clients. Same-day requests may also incur an additional fee depending on availability. *Lastly* if you see any dates on my calendar that looked blocked off (especially if they're highlighted in yellow) you can still reach out to see if you're close enough for me to do drop in visits! Dates highlighted in yellow just mean I have another booking but I'm still able to fit in drop in visits! 😊

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I'm gentle, safe, reliable, intuitive and quick to pick up on how animals are feeling. I also take into consideration any special needs animals may have.
Ratings and reviews
Sami did an outstanding job watching our dogs and house sitting while we went on a weekend trip. She was so patient with one of my dogs who is more shy, but by the end of the stay he felt safe and comfortable around her. She truly went above and beyond to make sure Benny and Franklin had playtime in the backyard, went on walks, and sent photos and updates frequently. She even cleaned up our house when she was left, which was so nice to come home to a clean home after we were away. Overall an amazing sitter, we look forward to having her stay with them again on our future trips!
Sami was fantastic! She checked in often and kept us updated. One of pur dogs got a stomach bug and kept her up all night and had an accident in the house. She took amazing care of her and nursed her back to health. Our animals are all happy and healthy and we are grateful to have had Sami watch them.
Sami was endlessly patient and communicative throughout her extended stay with my dog who has health and anxiety issues. She administered medication and followed all the necessary instruction to keep him healthy and happy with lot’s of pictures and daily updates on how he was doing. She was excellent, and I would love to use her again.
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my sorta high-needs senior cat. Sammie was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring from start to finish. She checked in every day with photos and updates, and it was clear how much affection she gave my cat — my kitty absolutely adored her and even settled into her usual “workday spot” on the desk right beside her. I came home to a spotless house, a happy and relaxed cat, and everything exactly as I left it. Sammie has a kind heart, great instincts, and treats your home and pets with real respect. I’d trust her again in a heartbeat.
Samantha was amazing! This is our second time using her, and our puppies love her. We know they're so well taken care of when she's with them.
Sami came to the rescue while I was out of town and watched my two pups. She's extremely thoughtful communicative, and clearly cares about animals. Will definitely rebook!

I work remotely so I'm more flexible, esp if I'm doing any daytime or overnight stays. I work 7 am-4 pm M-F and can easily step away from my job as needed.
