Love Life, Love Dogs
Pet care experience
I have been actively around dogs since I was born and have been training and showing dogs in 4-H and AKC for over a decade. Dogs are my passion and the center of that is my two Dobermans, Poppy and Winslow. They are my happy idiots and I love them. Along with taking care of my own dogs, I babysit friends' dogs on occasion and shower them with plenty of love and lots of playtime. I see dogs as more than just a pet. They are family. I treat them as such and look forward to meeting my next furry friend.
Reviews
Samantha was fantastic and very flexible with my vacation schedule. She sent really funny and cute pictures and messages. Neville was well taken care of :)
Having 3 dogs (2 older, one puppy), Samantha has been great! Professional, attentive and loving to my dog’s needs. She understands their issues and adapts her care accordingly. I have had Samantha stay in my home as well as daytime/nighttime drop ins. She has always being good communicating with me and my pups just love her. I have and will continue to recommend Samantha to friends and family for all their pets needs.
Sammi is awesome! I have 2 dogs, 6yo and 4yo. Bath were rescues and one severely abused, the other a Covid pup, and very needy. Sammi was great with understanding their needs, and adapting to their schedule. Sammi has “watched” my pups and has also stayed over in my home to sit them. Sammi is responsible, caring and professional. I highly recommend!
Samantha was great! She was available last minute and was a pleasure to work with!

I love taking walks around the city and it’s even better with a dog by your side! Dogs scheduled for walks will definitely get their steps in when walking with me. In terms of drop ins, no need to worry when it comes to making sure your dog is taken care of. I’m very thorough with making sure I hit all of the instructions I am given for that visit and if there’s ever any question I message the owner for clarification so I can give your pet the best care possible.
Information Samantha H. would like to know about your pet
Let me know about any specific places you like to take your dog for walks (and where you would prefer they don’t get walked) and I will accommodate! I always want the dog to enjoy their walk to the fullest extent. For drop ins, if there are any specific things you need from me during the visit, please give me as much detail as possible.
A typical day
I always try to get dogs and cats both to play with their toys while I’m there if we aren’t taking a walk. Animals benefit from this little bit of interaction while owners are gone and I want to make sure they’re happy for when you get home. And if all else fails, pets are always given if the animal feels comfortable enough with me.

Availability
I work full time so my availability on weekdays is evenings and if you are located close enough to me when I work from home, I can visit during my lunch break. Weekends I have a lot more availability time wise!
