Pet care experience

Certified veterinary technician!

I started working in kennels at age 16, became certified as a technician 8 years later, and have worked in various general and emergency hospitals since then. I specialize in medication administration and geriatric care but don't worry, I love puppies too! Most often, pet parents prefer that I come to their home to care for their furry family members which works great for me! I can come for a walk, stay for a few hours, or even stay overnight. Pricing: I try to price on a scale depending on what care your pet needs. My maximum rate is 25/hour. If I am staying overnight, I offer a flat rate of $200 per night for the first pet, and $100 per night for any additional furbabies. I am happy to discuss a price point with you before we decide on a Meet and Greet!

Safety, trust & environment

I love to work one-on-one with owners and their pets to develop a caretaking plan that best fits the needs of each family! Animals are such individuals and it's rewarding to learn and understand what makes each pet the most comfortable while their owners are away.

I’ve never trusted someone with my dog more than Sam.

Samantha made leaving Nico easy. She was responsive to all questions and concerns making the entire experience stress free. Nico takes medications and Samantha was soo wonderful and kind to him. It is clear that she loves animals. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and communicative dog sitter.
