Pet care experience

Pet Care with a Personal Touch

I’ve had a lifelong passion for animals starting at age 5 when I got my first cat. I am passionate about ensuring that every pet I look after is not only well-cared for but also happy and comfortable. I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality, preferences and any special needs they may have. Whether it's providing extra playtime for an energetic kitten or offering gentle care and attention to a senior pet, I tailor my approach to meet the individual needs of each animal. Currently, I am the proud owner of a black Bombay named Monty. Through caring for Monty, as well as additional pets over the years, I’ve broadened my experience with different personalities and needs of pets. My goal is to create a stress-free and enjoyable experience for both pets and their owners, giving pet parents peace of mind knowing their beloved fur babies are in caring hands.

Safety, trust & environment

Following an animal's regular schedule is essential for their comfort. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their usual routine closely to minimize stress. Additionally, I maintain consistent communication with the pawrent, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured about their pet's well-being.

Samantha was a phenomenal sitter! Super communicative, friendly, and I felt very at ease knowing she was looking after my cat, Stanley. The many photos and videos were much appreciated while I was away and I could tell my cat had so much fun with her.

Samantha is a true kitten whisperer and Rover pro! At first, we were nervous to leave our brand new kitten for 3 days… but after meeting Samantha, we immediately knew he was in GREAT hands and our nerves were completely settled the entire weekend away. Samantha was easy to book with, had no trouble accessing our building, and quickly picked up on where his food was and any other details she needed. She was incredibly communicative and she sent us many adorable photos and videos each visit and gave us a full intro and recap of the day. She really knocked it out of the park for us and we will be using Samantha again!!!

Samantha always takes the best care of our cats. She is thorough about her visit and sends a ton of photos and videos. She was able to administer medicine to my cat. Your pets will be in good hands!

Samantha was great with my cat Marley who can be a bit picky! She sent tons of photos and updates and followed my instructions well. You can definitely trust Samantha for your pet’s care.

Samantha did a great job looking after my cat Davinci. She was very responsive to messages and I appreciated how much play time she provided him during the visits.

We were lucky to find Samantha! We adopted our shy kitten 1.5 months ago, she is pretty wary of strangers and will go hide any time we have guests over. Samantha was patient and gained our cat’s trust very quickly! She would lay on the floor with a churu and slowly our cat would come out from under the bed or the couch lining. By the end of the visit, Harper was coming up to her excited to see her when she’d come into the apt. After getting her from her hiding spots, Samantha spent a lot of time playing with her and petting her. She would update us on the automatic food and water situations. We got many pics and videos everyday which we loved seeing how Harper was doing while we were away. We are new cat owners and you can tell Samantha is experienced and loved on our cat! We would definitely rebook again!
