Work from Home Sitter: 24/7 Love!

I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always come naturally to me. Growing up, I regularly pet sat for neighbors, caring for dogs, cats, and even exotic animals, and over time I built a loyal client base in my hometown that turned pet sitting into a consistent job. I have experience with pets of all ages and sizes from training and keeping up with energetic puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs. Having had dogs my entire life, including rescues from shelters, I’m very comfortable working with a wide range of personalities and temperaments. I can also administer medications and follow specific care routines, and I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment so pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I also make it a point to be highly responsive, so owners can count on me to quickly answer any calls or texts and provide updates for peace of mind.

Doggy Day Care • Jun 30, 2026

Samantha did an amazing job! She was very accommodating as our drop off time was very last minute. She sent updates and we felt like our pup was in great hands the whole time. We will definitely reach out again when we are back in the area.

This was the first time booking with Samantha and she was great. She arrived on time for the initial meet & great visit and completed the 2 times a day visits at the requested times. The eating and litter box areas were neat & tidy when I returned home. I will definitely book with Samantha again.

Samantha did a wonderful job caring for my two cats while I was away on vacation. She was always on time and very detailed oriented, I would recommend her to anyone looking to book a sitter!

Samantha is excellent with dogs and cats. She is responsive, professional, and loves animals. She has been a pet sitter for friend's dogs and cats while they were out of town. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring pet sitter. She truly loves animals.

Schedule

Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my weekly routine, especially during the summer. As a current senior at UA, I have a very flexible schedule and am looking to pet sit full time, which allows me to be fully available for boarding, walks, and regular potty breaks throughout the day. Because I’m not tied to a strict 9–5 schedule, I can give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and be present for their needs at all hours. This flexibility also means I can easily accommodate specific requests from owners and ensure their pets get the time, care, and supervision they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and the service requested, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed, keeping to their usual feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel secure in their familiar space. This includes feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care like administering medication or following training guidelines. I’m respectful of the home, keep everything tidy, and provide regular updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.

A typical day

I love spending quality time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. Depending on their personality and energy level, we’ll enjoy walks, playtime with their favorite toys, fetch, lots of belly rubs, and plenty of cuddles and attention. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible and make sure they have fun while feeling safe and loved.
