Dog mom available 4 pet sitting

I am a dog mom to a beautiful 6 year old German-Lab mix who is a certified Therapy Dog. She has given me a stronger understanding of what it takes to keep our best friends happy. I frequently visit dog parks with her and am always looking for a new place to go on out door treks. My love for animals has been lifelong growing up in a home that always had a family dog amongst other animals. I believe in love, patience and kindness when it comes to interacting with animals. I spend time getting to know the different pet personalities and devote curtailed attention to meet their needs. I believe animals live by their instincts and often are better judges of character than we are. So let your fur-baby meet me and we can let the interaction speak for itself.

Sam is a fav for our Autumn, she is always super happy and excited when we mention her name. Sam cared for Autumn for a week while we were away. Looking to use again in June.

Very accommodating. Was able to book on short notice, Autumn always gets super excited when I ask if she wants to go see Sam.

We always trust our baby with Sam. Autumn comes home worn out most of the time, she treats her like her own.

I could not have asked for a better sitter to care for my dog, Bowie, during my sister’s wedding weekend. Samantha was beyond amazing—she was incredibly accommodating with my schedule, thoughtful and attentive to Bowie’s needs, and made sure to keep me updated with frequent photos and messages. It gave me so much peace of mind to know Bowie was not only well cared for, but also genuinely happy and having a great time. They went on frequent walks to the park, and it was clear from the pictures and videos that Bowie felt right at home with them. I am so grateful for the love and attention she gave Bowie, and I would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!

Schedule

I work from home Monday to Friday, and am free on weekends to pet sit. I have a large yard and live close to a dog park. There are lots of trails I can walk and its a bonus because I love to walk.
