Pet care experience

Purrfectly tailored pet care & love

I’ve been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember! I grew up taking care of my own dogs, and family and friends have previously relied on me to walk, bathe, feed, and care for their furry loved ones while away. I believe in building trust with every pet I meet and I love getting to know their unique personalities! I also know how much you care for your beloved pet, so I find it important to send you continuous updates and pictures of how your furry companion is doing!

Sam is amazing! My fur babies just love her.🐾🐾 She takes amazing photos that allows me to be included in their walk. She takes them on long walks and gives them lots of attention!!! She has been a blessing!

Samantha did a fantastic job taking care of my boy Trigger. She kept me up to date each day with how he was doing and sending me pics. And my house was super clean when we got home. Will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.

Samantha was wonderful staying over to watch our dog Dottie! She sent updates and pics throughout the weekend which was terrific and very reassuring. Our house didn’t even look like anyone stayed there! 10 of 10 petsitter!

Sam was the best. Kept me updated and most importantly gave me peace of mind. Last minute problem with the plane connection and she stepped right in to help with the boys since I wasn't going to get home. She's responsible, kind and reliable. What more can you ask for? Highly recommend

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for your beloved pets. Whether in your home or mine, I provide a secure environment where your pet feels safe and can thrive. I believe maintaining a sense of trust, familiarity, and security are important so I maintain meticulous attention to detail. You can trust me to create a loving and nurturing environment where your pets feel right at home!

A typical day

I love taking dogs on adventures to parks, trails, or even just around the neighborhood for a sniffing expedition. Playtime with toys, training sessions for mental stimulation, and lots of cuddles are also big favorites. Every dog is unique, so I tailor the activities to their individual preferences and energy levels!
