Dogs, ferrets, snakes! Oh my!

Pet care experience

I have spent my whole life around animals. From growing up with cats, to being a competitive equestrian throughout my teens and young adulthood, followed by having a pet snake and three adorably stinky ferrets over the last 10 years. Not too mention many dogs that I consider myself auntie to. I am open to and comfortable caring for all types of critters. Not to mention I love being outside, and am happy to stroll for hours with your doggo, or cuddle up with with your furry family member if that's what the occasion calls for.

Our dogs were so happy with their walk! One of them can be reluctant on the leash but Sam was great at connecting with her and gaining her trust.

Second time having Samantha check in and care for our cat. Our cat is always very well taken care of and Samantha is great to deal with. Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

Being attentive, being compassionate, and knowing my client. Of course there are the essentials safety requirements such as keeping certain items out of reach, watching for potential injury or illness, etc. But, generally speaking every pet will have different behaviours, needs, living situations, and I intend to adjust accordingly to provide the safest, happiest, healthiest experience for each client and their furry friend. And, I tend to stay calm and collected in high energy situations, so for the pets that have some anxious behaviours, I am comfortable working with them.

Information Samantha J. would like to know about your pet

I am open and comfortable working with all sorts of critters and and comfortable in a large variety of situations. I want to learn the best way to care for your creatures, and help them feel safe and loved

A typical day

I love to explore and when I go out for walks I tend to let my feet lead the way, which is fun and exciting for the pups as well because it usually means interesting new places for them to sniff too.
