Certified veterinary technician!

Pet care experience

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!

Samantha was amazing. This was our first time using her and she was great. My boy is being and in need of insulin. He has anxiety when I'm not with him and could be a handful. Samantha didn't give up on him and tried different ways to make him comfortable with taking his shots from her. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing he was in great hands. We will definitely be using her again.

Samantha was great with our elderly dog Jake. Her experience as a pet tech provided us with a comfort level that we wouldn't have had with just anyone. She is detail oriented, providing us with a written recap at the end of the day, and she also sent us pictures and videos throughout her time at our house. I highly recommend Samantha, we will be hiring her again if she'll have us!

Sam was a pleasure to work with! She was respectful, attentive and sent regular updates of my little guy, who had a blast playing with her. I’d absolutely use her again in the future and would recommend her to others.
