Information Samantha H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has special needs or preferences that I should account for. My preference is smaller to mid-sized dogs and/or those that are able to acclimate with a new person. The dogs that I have most regular interaction with through my own and family/friends are English bulldogs, pitbull/mixes, and chihuahua/pom/dachshund mixes.

A typical day

I will engage and interact with your dog, play with them using their favorite toys, talk with them and take them on walks. I'll help them use some of their energy or curiosity and I can also offer assurance and comfort in the form of pets and cuddles.

Pet care experience

I've done pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors for most of my life. This includes care of dogs to include feeding, play, walking, and administering meds if applicable. I currently have a six year old English Bulldog who is a stubborn sweetheart and I regularly pet sit for a family member's pitbull mix.

I can’t recommend Samantha highly enough! From start to finish, she was dependable, friendly, clearly cared about my two kitties and took the time to build a real bond with them. When the app wasn’t accessible, she was incredibly accommodating and kept in touch over email without missing a beat. I received videos and daily photos, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I’ll absolutely be booking again, and I’d trust her with my kitties anytime.

Samantha was fantastic with our dog, Fern! She was communicative throughout the stay and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She was also very flexible with both drop-off and pickup times, making the entire experience easy and stress-free. Fern came home happy and well cared for, and it was clear she received lots of attention during her stay. We had a great overall experience and would absolutely book with Samantha again. Highly recommend!
