**Please Read all details!!!! I can go to people for dog walking sitting and check ins in Philadelphia range approximately 2 miles from my location and Boarding (travel to pro) if you are willing to travel whatever distance to me I’m more than happy to help!.** Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—I’ve built my routine around the needs of my own pets, including a senior dog and a special needs cat. I’m used to early morning walks, scheduled feedings, medication times, play sessions, and quiet snuggle moments. Caring for animals is more than a task—it’s something I truly love and value. I have the flexibility in my schedule to provide consistent, reliable care, whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or last-minute walks. It’s not just part of my routine—it’s part of who I am.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide care in your home, following routines, feeding, walking, and administering meds. I keep your space tidy and offer updates to ensure peace of mind. For all house sitting and overnight stays, I always like to meet you and your pets beforehand to ensure it’s a good fit for everyone. It’s important to me that your pets feel comfortable and that you feel confident in the care I’ll provide while you’re away. During this meet-and-greet, we can go over routines, any special instructions, and of course, get to know each other a bit! I believe in clear communication and providing peace of mind while you’re not home.

A typical day
When I watch pets, I love to engage them with fun activities like fetch, tug-of-war, puzzle toys, and interactive playtime. We’ll enjoy long walks, cuddle sessions, and even special treat time. I also tailor activities to each pet’s personality, whether that’s a playful romp, calm grooming, or adventurous exploration.

Pet care experience
What sets me apart is my experience with animals of all ages, breeds, and abilities. I’ve cared for high-energy puppies, senior dogs, and cats with disabilities like ataxia. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling special diets, providing mobility support, and reading animal body language to ensure every pet feels safe and loved. I’m also skilled in basic training, crate routines, leash handling, and introducing pets to new environments. My calm, patient approach helps build trust with even the shyest animals. Every pet is treated like my own—with compassion, attentiveness, and genuine love.

Reviews
Samantha’s is amazing - she’s watched my cat and dog who are both high maintenance kids, and is so thoughtful, prepared, and caring. She sends the best text and pic updates! She even has an adorable IG you can follow - truly a professional.
Samantha really put us at ease when we went away for the night. She communicated with us the entire time providing updates on our dogs and pictures. I will continue to book Samantha anytime we need someone to check on our babies!
Samantha is the best! From the start, she was incredibly communicative, thoughtful, and clearly loved what she does. She treated our dogs and cat like their own and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for while we were away. We received regular updates and photos which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious our dogs and cat were getting tons of attention and affection. When we got home, our animals were relaxed, happy, and clearly had been in the best hands. We would book Samantha again in a heartbeat and highly, highly recommend them to anyone looking for a truly exceptional sitter.
Samantha is a phenomenal dog walker! She recently cared for my two high-maintenance pups, Brutus and Nacho, while I was out for several hours. Brutus required specialized care and medication due to a recent injury, and Samantha handled everything with total confidence and ease. She is incredibly patient, attentive to their specific needs, and kept me updated the entire time. It’s such a relief to find someone I can trust with my needy dogs. I highly recommend her services!
