Friendly, energetic, and loves pets

Pet care experience

I have 2 golden doodles and one small mixed breed. They are high energy dogs and love to run about the yard. I have experience house sitting and watching medium-large size dogs as well as puppies and seniors. I have watch dogs between 1-8 days, but if needed I can stay longer. I am able to follow a meal schedule, as well as medication schedule. Depending on who I am caring for and the house rules, the dogs can join me on the sofa, or to bed. Playing with toys, going for walks, and playing fetch are some activities that I will engage in when watching your dog/dogs. Their will also be time for lots of belly rubs and pets. When going for walks, I take in the age, size, and ability into consideration when thinking about the length of the walk. Usually I just go for a walk around the block and through the park, but if there is a specific route you usually take and would rather me walk, then I am happy and open to taking a referred route. When doing walk-ins and checking up on the pets and house I will go every 2-4 hours. Making sure that pets are okay, have relieved themselves, have enough water, and given an hour or so of play time. I am a genuine pet lover of both cats and dogs, and I look forward to getting to know you and your pets.

Samantha did a fantastic job looking after my cat Smokie while we were away for the week. I felt she was in great hands 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

I am very flexible and will take care of cats and dogs. I am also good at sticking to a meal schedule and medication schedule. I do give lots of time for play for high energy dogs, but also take into account age and limitations so everyone is safe. I follow house rules, so if no couches and beds I can do that and vice versa. I also enjoy a good walk so if it is agreed upon and wanted I love taking dogs for walks, but would like to know if they are reactive in advance.

Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, I am good with all dogs, but I would like to know before hand if the dog has any aggressive, or anxious behaviour. This is so I do not accidentally trigger an anxious or aggressive reaction upon first meet.

A typical day

For younger more energetic dogs, I enjoy taking them on walks and playing games. I know some can’t go on walks, so we could have small fun in the back, a park, and the occasional car ride. If non reactive the Marina is one of my favourite places to go. Cats depending on what kind of toys they like to play with, or if they are mellow and want lots of pats, I can do both. If you take your cat out with you hiking and have a lead, I can also take your Kay for a nice walk.

I am currently working part time, so if your dogs or cats do need extra attention for medical reasons, I will need you to book at least 2 weeks in advance so I can take off work. But apart from that, I’ll still have plenty of time to take care of your pets even if scheduled. And depending on location I can more then likely come back to the house on my break.
