Pet care experience
Hello. My name is Samantha and I am that person who says "Awwww" to every dog that I see. I have had dogs all my life and am a proud mom of a Beagle mix and a German Shepherd mix, so I fully understand how much dogs truly make us spoil them. I also have 2 cats (and a few strays I adore!) so quite experienced with all their fickle ways too! I enjoy being active and often have the dogs in the backyard as I work outside or we go on walks around our neighborhood. I believe it is important to socialize animals. Whether it's just a few circles around the block or a nice hike in the woods, animals need the fresh air just like we do. I know what it's like to struggle to find a good sitter when you're away for a weekend trip or gone for a family vacation, so I try to be a someone people can trust to love their animals like they do!
Reviews
Second time leaving our dog with Samantha, she sent pictures and updates and our dog was happy during his stay with her!
Sam was great. She sent several photo updates, had a great meet and greet process, and was very kind. My dog had a blast!
Sam was great! Stormi absolutely loved her! I would definitely use her again. Thanks so much!
This was the second time that Sam took care of our kitties for us. She does a great job and you can tell she really loves animals. I trust her and was glad she was able to help us out again with our babies while we were out of town. Thanks Sam!

I have a fully fenced back yard and we use baby gates to separate dogs in bedrooms if needed for anxiety or just taking a break from all the play. Or if they are scared of my cats. Haha. We also never feed dogs together. Always so they don’t feel like their food is threatened.
Home
Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet
Always helpful to know if they come from a home with cats. Or if they absolutely hate them. Any medications they have or specific things they don’t like. Food allergies. Are they scared of storms. Things like that to help us keep them comfortable and happy.
A typical day
Usually up around 6am for feeding and potty break then a walk if the weather is nice. Out in the back yard multiple times a day and generally dinner around 6pm with another walk.

Availability
I mostly work from home so they’d be with me most of the day. My girlfriend also is very integral in dog care so she’s generally responsible for most of the dog cuddles and I do most of the dog play.
