About Samantha M.
Communication
Safety, trust & environment
I do my best to let your pet lead our interactions- especially with cats. I pay attention to body language and don't force an interaction unnecessarily. As a house sitter, I'll do my best to keep your pets' regular schedule, and leave your home just as I found it. For drop-in visits, I'll make sure your cat is fed and watered, their litterbox clean, and if they let me I'll play with and pet them.
Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know your pet's schedule (especially mealtimes and playtime), activity level, social needs, and any medications I'll need to give them. Favorite toys, treats, and favorite places to be skritched are always helpful :)
A typical day
Depending on your cat's needs, I can play with them, brush them, offer sweet talk and slow blinks, or just pretend I don't see them.

Cat-loving biologist
Cat care experience
I love cats and cats love me! It's true- I've shocked multiple friends by getting their skittish kitties to love me with little more than slow blinks and sweet talk. Got a velcro cat who needs tons of love and attention? I love giving pets and my lap's always open. Got a scaredy cat who needs their boundaries respected? I'll happily feed & water them but leave them be. Got something in the middle? Great, I love kitties of all ages and temperaments! I was trained as a wildlife biologist and veterinary assistant, so I'm comfortable drawing and administering pills, liquids, topical medications, and injections. I prefer to use minimal restraints when medicating cats, but I can make a good purrito if that keeps everyone safe and clam.
Reviews
Samantha did a great job at treating Scarlett for hyperthyroidism while we were gone. Getting the gel into Scarlett's ear with accompanying treats seems to have done the trick! Great job Samantha. J & J
Samantha is great. She clearly loves animals. She is responsive to communications and follows instructions. She send a nice note during each visit. . I definitely will use her in the future.
Samantha was absolutely wonderful with the kitties and incredibly mindful of their individual personalities/needs!!
Loved having Samantha watch our cat (and fish!). She is super communicative, helpful, and sent lots of pictures of our cat while we were away. Our cat seemed to enjoy her company lots!
