Ask to Train while You're Away!
Pet care experience
I am currently working towards becoming a certified dog trainer, and can help your dog with basic obedience and manners. When you're away I can train your dog! Just be sure to ask about it when you book!
Reviews
Took good care of my fur baby! I felt safe and comfortable leaving Bruno here. Samatha helped crate train Bruno more which I LOVEDD!! The only thing I would wish was different was some more pictures through out the day but besides that I would definitely recommend Samatha
She was amazing and worked gently with my pup. He is very nervous and protective and he loved her. She gave periodic updates that made us feel at ease. He was so sad to leave! Would 10/10 recommend.
Samantha is a very understanding and caring dog lover. She took care of my dog for a few days, never fails to give me constant updates, pictures and videos of the dogs playing. She’s very responsive, and would take care of your dog as her own. Not only that, there were delays during the drop off time and she was extremely understanding and flexible about it. Would definitely book her again!
Great communication and a lot of walks will definitely use Samantha again
About Samantha M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My home has dog gates and kennels so depending on your dog's skills they can have all gates open to sleep on the couch while I work or I can have a gate closed for them to lay next to me while I am in meetings. Kennels are used to help give your dog a cozy place to lay down and to help keep them safe if needed.

Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know what kinds of behaviors your dog exhibits. Please provide enough food for your dog's stay and text or leave instructions for how often and how much they eat! Let me know if your dog cannot have certain kinds of foods or treats, so that I don't share something that will make them sick! If your dog has favorite toys or chews feel free to bring them! If your dog cannot be left with toys or chews for safety reasons let me know and I'll remove them from the crate while they sleep! I have a large 36"x42" wire kennel with a bed your dog can sleep in! Feel free to bring a comfort item, like a blanket.
A typical day
We go on 1 to 3 walks a day. Have a private dog park in my apartment for off leash play. We also have a variety of enrichment toys and activities for alone play, like a wobble kong, snuffle mat, licky toys, and automatic toys. We have set activities to practice good manners like waiting to be served food, settling away from people while they eat, structured feeding times, and treats on walks to praise loose leash walking or reducing reactivity.
