Safety, trust & environment

We have a large house where the dogs are able to roam freely. We have a completely gated backyard as well as a small fence area for smaller dogs. We have a huge front yard that is not fenced, but we have a stake in the middle of the yard with a very long leash for a dog to enjoy the sunshine, supervised of course.

Information Samantha K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what your dog loves to do and I’ll make sure we do it! Walks, activities, snuggles, you name it! I’m happy to do the same routine you do at home!

A typical day

I love to go on walks and make sure your dog can smell all the smells. I love to be outside with the dog as long as they love it too! I love to play fetch and other stimulating exercises that you dog likes to do!

Pet care experience

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE all dogs! I believe dogs are the sweetest animals on this earth. It brings me such joy to be around them. I love going on walks, I love letting them sniff the grass or the ground for as long as they like, I love watching them run around the yard, I love seeing them figure stuff out, it makes me so happy. I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve had dogs as big as a Belgian Malanois, and Dalmatians. At one point in my life I had four dogs at the same time and still kept my house immaculate. The last 16 years of my life, I had the sweetest most beautiful Puggle named Bella. She passed away recently, and I am not ready for a new dog, but I definitely want to give my love and care to those who need it.

Samantha was awesome. She not only FaceTimed me but also stopped by to meet the fur family before her drop-in visit. My dogs just loved her. She was perfectly on time , respectful of the property and is a great communicator. I would highly recommend her.

Samantha was so wonderful with my pups. She helped with letting them out while I started a new job and it was such a blessing to have someone that was reliable and communicative during her visits. She walked them gave them a treat and made sure they both went potty. I will definitely be using her again in the future and am just so thankful to have found her! I know my little girls will miss her!

Samantha did a great job of caring for my pups and was available very last minute. She communicated well and I was happy to know my dogs were safe while I was away. I will definitely be using her services again!

Scout has so much fun! He was exhausted when he came home. Samantha is caring and loving. He was well cared for so we were not concerned at all while we were away. We would definitely have Samantha care for Scout again!
