Avid animal lover, Vet expertise!
Pet care experience
Please read profile completely- I DO NOT have a cat, I only have tank pets listed as a cat to find care for them occasionally! I have 9 years of animal related experience. 6 years of Veterinary Technician experience and 2+ years of full time pet care. I am very comfortable with pets that have medical or special needs. When your pets are in my care, it is my goal to ensure they are loved as if you never left! I do host pets from multiple families at a time. Please let me know if you prefer your pet to be kept alone and separate from staying with other pets. I can arrange single pet stays. I do have pets of my own but they are reptiles and stay in their tanks at all times.
Reviews
Samantha did an excellent job watching my two Shih Tsu’s for the week and a half that I was gone. Shih Tzu’s are very temperamental and Samantha did a great job comforting them and keeping them happy. Thank you Samantha for doing such a fantastic over the top job caring for my dogs.
Another great stay! Thank you!!!
Samantha is great! She sent me photos of my cat every drop-in and made sure to let me know how he’s doing. Very trustworthy
Samantha is an exceptional cat sitter! She provided superb care for our two cats while we were away for two and a half weeks. Feeding the daily medication to one of our cats can be quite challenging, but Samantha handles it with great skill. We will definitely book Samantha again in the future!

Home
Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet
Does your dog get stressed when you leave out of town or triggers ( thunderstorms/ fireworks) if so, what things can I do to help? (Thunder coats, calming treats) Special medications; Vet info and daily routines.
A typical day
I like to make sure the pups get out 4 times a day with at least 1 longer walk. I will typically ask about your pets routine to ensure they are having their needs/ desires met while staying with me. Trips to dog parks can be requested. If your pet is staying with me for a decent amount of time- I will take them on a hike in the area!
