Animal Lover for Life!

Pet care experience

Hello, My name is Samantha. I moved to Colorado from California to get my M.A. at the University of Colorado, Denver in Medical Anthropology with an emphasis in political ecology. Now, I am settled down in the lovely neighborhood of Cole and am an avid gardener and (pretend) food, art, music, and museum connoisseur. =) My love for animals started at a very young age. I have been living in Denver, CO for roughly seven years and have been providing pet boarding/sitting services to both dogs and cats in my neighborhood as well as clients in the Denver metro area. I treat my clients' pets as though they were my own (with love and respect). Animals have always been a huge passion in my life, alongside nature, and environmental conservation. I live in an extremely dog friendly neighborhood, which has made the dogs' and cats' experiences very comfortable when pet boarding. Currently, I live near Cole-Clayton 39th Ave. greenway! It’s a perfect walking path for any pup(s) and/or human(s). Hence, having an opportunity to see a sunset with the CO mountains in the background isn’t a bad way to start or end your day. If you are interested don't hesitate to contact me via cell or e-mail. Thank you and I look forward to meeting you and caring for your beloved pet(s)! Namaste, Samantha “Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.” ― Anatole France

My dog LOVES Samantha and we are so grateful for how well she took care of our fur-babe! She sent so many photos and made my husband and I feel very relaxed while on vacation. We will definitely be repeat costumers. She went above and beyond at every opportunity! Thank you SO much, Samantha. ❤️

Can’t say enough great things about Samantha. She did amazing with our dog Nola. Nola was a recent rescue and was scared of many things. Samantha was so patient with her even after Nola got scared and almost bit her. Samantha will not be a mistake for you to have care for your fur babies.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for my pets as if they were my own. Unfortunately mine have passed a long time ago, however I found that Rover gave me a new calling. The various personalities and connections are extremely important to me. I make sure to abide by the rules the owner has and respect them and do my best to make the pet(s) happy and comfortable as possible. Also, leaving a home as you first saw it is a big rule for me.

Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what special needs are necessary for your pup(s) and/or cat(s). I have experience with former client’s pups who needed medical treatments daily (e.g. administrating medicine via pill form and injection). Furthermore, it is important to relay your pet’s/ pets’ individual routine and overall personality, enabling me to provide the best experience.

A typical day

I love to stimulate pups playing games outside or indoor, lay around and cuddle while I work on my class work (towards another sector - UX Research). From hikes, nice walk or run around a park, or even camping. Of course it depends on the pup and the owner’s permission.
