I'll love your pets like my own!

Pet care experience

I have been dog-sitting since I was about 15. I have experience in dog sitting dogs of all sizes. The youngest dog that I have dog sat was under 1, and the oldest was 17. I recently got a new job, and my schedule is being figured out. Weekends are pretty flexible for me. I really like to come and meet dogs before I take care of them, that way they can get used to me and still have their owners nearby for security in case they get scared. I also watch cats, chickens, rats, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I'm pretty used to a menagerie of animals, so I'm sure we could work something out. If you have a skittish pet, please let me know so that I can approach them without scaring them. Big or small, I can do it!

Safety, trust & environment

I don't watch dogs in my home because my animals are territorial. When watching animals in my client's home, I make sure that your animals are fed, watered, and let out often. I also do my best to spend time in your home with them.

Information Samantha H. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any breed preferences, but I would like to know if the dogs I watch tend to be escape artists. I have a clubbed foot, and don't run very well. If your dog is afraid of loud noises, such as thunder or fireworks, please let me know.

A typical day

Depending on the size of the dog, I could either walk the dog around the neighborhood, or I can take the dog on a fairly long walk. It all depends on the owners preference. I can play catch, or even let the dog snuggle up with me if possible.
