Part time nurse/full time dog lover
Pet care experience
Hello! Before I started my nursing career I did some overnight dog sitting through another organization. I grew up with a dog always in the family and at least twice a week go to visit "my" dogs at my parents house (I am like the fun aunt who takes them out and gives them love and treats). I have an innate love for dogs and really enjoy being outside and active with them. For me the best part of the Ballard farmers market is all the dogs I get to see!!! I can almost assure you, if you and your dog have been to any of our local farmers markets, I have probably stopped you to pet them. I have just returned from 5 months of volunteer nursing in Bolivia and am currently working part time as an oncology nurse at Swedish while obtaining my masters degree. My schedule is rather open, I work two days a week and have class every Friday.
Reviews
Samantha and Greg were great! They let Oz and Kiwi sleep with them and they had a wonderful time. Excellent communications and pictures taken every day. I felt very reassured that my fur babies were well taken care of and loved. Definitely would book with Samantha again!
We were so lucky to connect with Samantha. She took great care of my two dogs, cat and house! We had a last-minute cancellation from a family member and needed to come up with a sitter on short notice. I couldn’t be happier with the service Samantha and her husband Greg provided. They saved our Thanksgiving vacation. Our house was left in excellent condition, and she sent me multiple photos of the pets activities each day. It was clear that our pets got tons of exercise and love while we were out of town. I would 100% have Samantha back.
Violet so enjoyed her time with Samantha! From meeting up with us at the dog park to getting her to take her medications, I would highly recommend Samantha to watch your pets! Violet was well exercised and taken care of during my time away. I really enjoyed all of the photos and videos Samantha sent so I could keep track of my girl. We even facetimed so I could chat with her :) I wont hesitate to use Samantha again and I know Violet now has a new friend for life!
Sam is awesome!!! Our little pup loves her and had a great time.

Information Samantha K. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if there are any special instructions or treatments that need to be done. I would like to know how they are with other dogs and children for when we go on walks and to the dog park.
A typical day
If I stay at your house with your pup, we will go on plenty of walks rain or shine (we live in Seattle after all)! We will venture to the dog park at the very least one time. There will be lots of excersise for your dog and plenty of cuddling after they are all pooped out.
