Pet care experience
Your Pet’s New Best Friend!
I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with an orange tabby cat who taught me the basics of daily pet care from a young age. In high school, my family adopted a snorkie, and I’ve helped care for him for the past 12 years—everything from daily walks and playtime to grooming and giving medications. I’ve also had my own cat for the past seven years, and through his renal issues I’ve become very familiar with the early signs of urinary blockages, bladder stones, and the importance of special diet management. Because of this, I’m extremely attentive to subtle behavior changes and comfortable supporting pets with chronic or sensitive medical needs. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care.

Safety, trust & environment
When your pet is with me, they’re treated like my own. I’m really big on keeping things safe, calm, and consistent so your pet can settle in and feel comfortable. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and any little changes—especially since I’m used to managing my own cat’s medical needs. I’m super reliable and I always follow instructions exactly how you give them. You’ll get plenty of updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Whether it’s sticking to a schedule, handling special diets, or just giving them extra love and attention, I make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well-cared for the entire time.
Ratings and reviews
Samantha does a wonderful job taking care of my pup! He loves when she comes over. I have used her both for overnight care and weekly walks. She is very reliable and always sends lots of updates & pictures. She was also very flexible when I had a cancelled flight. Highly recommend for all your pet sitting needs!!
Samantha took great care of my pups! She provided lots of pictures and took them on many walks! My dogs always enough any time Samantha takes care of them! This is my second time booking with her and it won’t be my last!
Samantha was a great sitter for my 2 dogs! They absolutely loved her and she treated them so well! She was able to take them on a walk without me asking! I will definitely be booking with her in the future!
She went above and beyond for my doggy to the point he still misses her.
My best friend has been an incredible dog sitter for our three pups, and I can’t recommend her enough. She’s amazing with their different personalities and handles their complex medication schedules with total accuracy and care. She treats them like her own and always keeps us updated—she takes and sends tons of photos just the way we like, so we never feel far from our babies. Anyone would be lucky to have her watch their dogs.
Sam is the most dependable dog-sitter we have ever had, watching our 3 dogs that each have medical needs and conditions. Our house and pets were always well taken care of and we have never had any complaints!

Schedule
I am a medical student who spends several hours a day studying, making my schedule perfect for house sitting and using study breaks to take dogs on walks. I have class every week day from 8-12 so I can do anytime after that. Unfortunately, I am unable to do Thursdays due to long lecture and lab times.
