Pet care would seamlessly integrate into my daily and weekly activities. On days when I work from home (Monday, Thursday, Friday) I have a more flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time for walks, feeding, and playtime with dogs I’m caring for either during breaks or before and after work. I work full time but am very active before and after work. I’m usually up at 6am so I can do early visits. If your dog is very energetic and up for an early day, I don’t mind taking them on a run with me (I’m a slow runner so they should be okay 😉). I’m open for noon walks as well. I’m off at 5pm, so anything after that works.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home, I ensure a safe and comfortable environment by providing a designated area with cozy bedding, toys, and easy access to water and food. I maintain a structured routine that includes regular walks, playtime, and feeding schedules, ensuring each pet receives individual attention and care. In my clients home, I follow their specific instructions to maintain consistency in the pet’s routine whether it’s feeding, medication, or exercise. I respect their space by keeping the home clean and secure, and always update the owner with photos and messages about their pet’s well-being. My approach is to treat each pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel loved and cared for in any environment .

Information Samantha H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs. How social is your pup? What can I use to get their attention (commands, treats, toys)? Is there anything I should avoid?

A typical day

On a typical day I’d start with a walk, either around the neighborhood or to a park. If we stop at the park, I’d love to take a favorite toy and play fetch. If your dog is super energetic, I’d love to take them on a slow run with me, usually 1 mile.

Samantha has watched our cats twice now and she has been great both times! She has great communication and leaves detailed check ins. The cats are always very well taken care of, we will definitely book with her again!
