Safety, trust & environment

I care for people's pets in their homes, either on a drop-in basis for walks, play, and exercise, or for overnight pet-sitting. I like to begin with a meet and greet with owners and pets to get to know both parties, and get an introduction to the care needs and personality of the pet. My goal is to create a comfortable, relaxing environment for your animal and to communicate with you so that you have peace of mind while you are away.

Information Samantha N. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any specific needs, preferences, or behaviors I should be aware of. I want to make sure that they (and you!) are always comfortable.

A typical day

Of course, I want to keep things as close to your pet's daily schedule as I can. Depending on their usual day-to-day and energy level, we can get outside for frequent walks (with plenty of time to stop to check out interesting smells!), and enjoy some play time at home with a favorite toy. Once I get to know your pet and they get to know me, I'm also happy to spend time just being present for pets who may be comforted by having a familiar presence around!

Pet care experience

I've cared for animals of all species since I was a kid. Whether it's for drop-in visits for play, walks, and exercise, or extended stays, it's always a joy to get to know each animal's unique personality. Whether they're full of energy or full on couch potatoes I love spending time with dogs of all kinds. I have experience with senior dogs, anxious dogs, highly active dogs, and those with specific medication schedules. I'm also experienced with (and a big fan of!) caring for cats-whether they're shyer with new folks or instant lovebugs!

Took superb care of the dog and the house. Was a fabulous communicator. We’d book her again in a heartbeat. In fact we already have.
