Kind, Reliable Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I’ve owned and cared for all kinds of creatures big and small for my entire life. I am comfortable with big dogs and leash reactive dogs, cats, farm animals, reptiles and more. I have a calm and confident approach ideal for anxious animals. I only take one house-sitting client at a time, so your pet will be my only priority. I enjoy photography and do my best to capture your pet’s unique personality with every picture. I have owned and/or cared for a variety of animals including rabbits, horses, cats, rodents, lizards, turtles, goats and pigs. I offer partial day rates for shorter sits of 4 hours or less. Please message me if you only need an afternoon or evening of sitting. :-)

Samantha was fantastic! She stayed overnight to watch our 2 year old Samoyed and it was the first time we had spent the night away from our dog and it couldn’t have gone better. She was thorough and communicative and sent lots of updates and awesome pictures. Highly recommend Samantha!

Samantha took great care of our senior pets while we were away for 4 days. We felt super comfortable knowing they were in good hands! She sent daily updates that gave us so much peace of mind. Definitely recommend!

My dog Cooper had a great time hanging out with Sam for an afternoon. Sam gave my Cooper plenty of attention and a nice walk around the neighborhood. She understood having an older dog which I totally appreciated.
