Calling all dogs!! Woof!
Pet care experience
Hello there and thank you for taking the time to check out my profile! I joke that my house belongs to the dogs; they let me stay to clean, play, feed and love on them. I’ve spent my entire life around dogs of all breeds and have yet to meet a dog I didn’t love. Over the years, in addition to caring for and training my own I’ve also become the local go-to for anything to do with dogs. From taking in a neighbor’s last minute boarding request to helping teach leash manners; you name it, I've done it. You can rest assured that your pup will have the time of their live's here. I consider their time with me to be their sort of vacation, we do equal parts play-time and nap-time with plenty of pets and belly rubs in between. Your pup will be treated as a member of the family throughout their time with me.

Kai always loves her time with Sam and Charlie. Thanks for taking great care of our dog!
What can I say other than - Samantha is just fantastic and we won’t be traveling much if it not were for her services sitting our dog. We have used Samantha for the last one year and will continue to user her services hopefully forever
This was the third time we left our dog, Rocky with Samantha. He spent 2 weeks with Samantha and had a wonderful time. Most of all, Charlie and Rocky loved playing with each other every day. If you need someone to dog sit for you, I highly recommend Samantha.
I was very nervous about leaving my 10 month old mini-aussie for the first time. Looking through all of my many choices, I felt Samantha would be a good fit for Phoebe, and I was right! Samantha was very professional and trustworthy. She kept Phoebe safe and well cared for, so I didn't have to worry...it was a relief. Her warm and loving demeanor put my dog at ease right away, along with her own dog, Charlie, who quickly became Phoebe's best friend. Samantha kept me posted with an abundance of photos of my happy dog! What FUN she had! Samantha made everything easy and worry-free for me...A real professional!

Safety, trust & environment
My home has a fully fenced yard & has ample space for pups to roam and play both inside and out. We have something for everyone. Each pup that comes to visit will have as much or as little play time as they want. They have free rein to sniff around and explore. I allow dogs to be dogs, they are free to play with eachother or play a game of fetch with me if thats what they prefer. The dogs are under constant supervision, there is not one second of the day (or night) they will be left home alone. In the extremely rare occasion that I need to run out for something my husband gladly & graciously stays and hangs out with the pups.
Home
Information Samantha K. would like to know about your pet
The more information I have a head of time, the better. Tell me everything, from their favorite game to their worst fear. Major things that can be forgotten to be relayed to me would be any allergies, any past injuries that I need to be aware of, any thing that your pup loves/hates, fears, quirks, etc.
A typical day
A typical day would include a play session or a walk, breakfast, snuggles, and a nap; this repeats throughout the day and will end with happy & tired pooches snoozing soundly in bed. I live within walking distance to Percy Priest Lake, I freuquently visit the miles of walking trails and of course a swim cannot be ruled out on a hot summer day.
Services
Samantha can host
Availability
I work from home which allows me to spend my time watching and caring for the pups. I’m able to give each individual pup the attention he/she needs and you never have to worry about your pup being left alone or being unsupervised. I currently have a young mastiff who hasn’t gotten the memo that she’s supposed to have mellowed out by now so we play…a lot.
