I am every dog's best friend!
Pet care experience
I have been pet sitting for 15 years. I have experience with all different sizes, and breeds of dogs, cats, lizards, fish and even chickens! Along with dog sitting, I have also been a foster parent for my local animal shelter, and I have raised and trained service dogs. I have also helped to whelp new litters of puppies, and have been trained in temperament testing, and socialization. I am certified in "clicker training", and I know how to work with dogs of all different temperaments. My philosophy is to treat every dog as if they are my own. I have never met a dog that I don’t like, or who doesn’t like me. I can’t wait to meet your furbaby and shower them with the love that they deserve!
Reviews
Sammy has been pet sitting for us for quite some time and she always does a great job. She’s so responsible, great with all animals and always goes above and beyond. We couldn’t ask for a better person to spend time with our animals.
Sammy is awesome with our pets!! 2 dogs, a cat and fish and she loves them all. Our pets are always so happy when she comes to walk them and even happier when she stays when we go away. We have known Sammy for years and are always thrilled when she watches our pets.
Sammy is the best dog sitter we have ever had. She is such an animal lover that she really makes our dog feels like her own, sometimes our dog is happier to see her than she is us! We know it’s because of the attention and love that Sammy gives him. She has been sitting for us for 10 years and always is so respectful of our house and our dog.
Sammantha is one of the kindest, biggest pet lover, you will ever meet. She has a very strong family background. Her high values, trustworthiness, and upbeat personality are infectious. She will care for your pet/pets, like she would your most prized procession. Sam has been around dogs all her life, and has loved every minute of it. Any pet would be super Happy in her care.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for other pets as if they were my own. But with the pet parent rules. If a pet parent is crate training, then no sleeping in the bed. If they’re comfy with their animals on furniture than that is fine with me! I make sure the pet does not have a disrupted schedule, and try to be sure they’re as comfy as possible while their pet parent is away!
Home
Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know how they interact with other dogs, where they are from, how they act when alone, how they act around strangers, and if they have any special behaviors to look for. Such as resource guarding. I have no breed preferences!
A typical day
I like to walk around the dogs neighborhood, if possible. If not, then to a nearby park. If the dog likes other dogs, then perhaps a local dog park!

I work from home everyday and have a very relaxed job- I can spend lots of time outside and time playing with animals! I am also able to watch pets on very short notice.
