I'll treat your dog like my own

Pet care experience

Hello, I know how busy life can get, and it's great that you are looking for someone to give your dog a respite from sleeping all day. I foster for a local rescue group, have always loved dogs, and I used to walk neighborhood dogs starting at 12 years old! Walking dogs is something I really enjoy doing. Perhaps one day I can take care of dogs full-time. For now, I need some supplemental income that will not neglect time with my three to four animals (a foster) like a scheduled job would. I am available for walking/check- ins/feeding/last minute plans 8am-9pm M-W-Th-F-Sat, THE MAXIMUM DISTANCE OF MY TRAVEL CANNOT EXCEED 15 MINUTES (Rover only has the option for miles, not time). After 9pm is an additional $10. Boarding is every day. My house is small so I can only take one dog at a time. My dog has gotten along with almost every dog I have brought into her life so far. I also have 2 cats- one that will run and one that will stand her ground so I can't take any prey-driven pups. A meet and greet at my house is required before booking, which I am sure you'd want to do anyway!

This was Samantha's first visit with Pumpkin and all went well. There was a little glitch created by me but all turned out fine because of Samantha"s ability to grasp our pre-disclosed Plan B. We will be happy to have Samantha back.

Sam is a truly dedicated animal lover who will put the needs of your pets before her own. She has fostered multiple dogs for my rescue group with great success each time. Dogs flourish in her care and due to her efforts became more adoptable. I highly recommend her and can attest that your pets will be in the best hands with her!

Sam is always reliable when it comes caring of animals whether it be her own or someone else. She makes sure she spends the extra time to play with them and giving them plenty of exercise, and most importantly, love them. I trust her taking care of my dog whole-heartedly, and he loves to see her as well!
