Walk-Swim-Play whatever Dog desires

Pet care experience

Please Note: We are happy to host multiple dogs from the same/different families, or pups who are already pals. If your four legged friend is good with other dogs then there may be other dogs in our home. Our #1 priority is making sure everyone gets along and everyone is well taken care of. Big dogs, small dogs, puppies - we love them all! We have a single level home with a fenced in backyard. I work from home and can provide constant companionship for our canine guests. We currently do not have a pet, and host guests from one family at a time, OR multiple family's depending on the dog(s) temperament(s). I personally have been pet sitting for 22+ years. It was one of my first jobs as a kid. I have always had a place in my heart for our 4-legged friends. I've grown up with Golden Retrievers and Labs (bigger dogs) even got to experience a litter of 8 puppies as a kid. I have volunteered at the Bergin University of Canine Studies throughout my college years in California. I also have volunteered at the Longmont Humane Society where I was a dog walker. Whether your dog likes to run, walk, swim or play fetch I'm your gal! I have cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes, anywhere from small lap dogs to LARGE Irish Wolfhounds. I've also been known to throw doggie Birthday Parties- with homemade dog friendly treats and cakes :)! I am very responsible and kind, and always give 100% no matter the task I am faced with! I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends :)

Samantha is one of the only people I trust to be around my dogs. She has always been so caring and gentle with them, and I never worry when my babies are in her care. She is a wonderful sitter and walker and my dogs are always happy and well taken care of. They get excited every time they see her! I definitely recommend Samantha for walking and sitting, and I know that you will be just as happy as I am with her care.

I absolutely trust Samantha taking care of my dog, and staying in my house for day visits or overnights. She is responsible and loves animals, and has a kindness that makes you comfortable leaving your pets in her hands. You’ll know you made the right choice when you come back and see how content your pet is after being with Sam.

Samantha is absolutely the best buddy your furry friend could have!!! She has cared for my pets too many times to count over the past several years, as well as "housesitting". I have no hesitation leaving my pups, kitties and house in her care - she is completely trustworthy, conscientious and, above all, fun and loving. She has cared for everything from a new-born kitty through a giant Irish Wolfhound, post knee surgery. If you are lucky enough to have her take care of your pet, you will not be sorry!!!

I am the proud parent of two hooligans. Both boys are rescued and present their own challenges. Samantha put both of them, and me, at ease the moment she met them. She has taken them on long walks together, taken each of them on a run individually, and have proven a great influence on their behavior and disposition overall. She has a calming nature, unparalleled energy, and a contagious joy. She has become family, and I am free to travel worry free, knowing that Samantha treats my boys with love and compassion.

I work from home so can be with your dog 100% of the time :). We have a fenced backyard and plenty of room to run. Even though the yard is fenced I will still always be out with your dog(s) when they are outside.
