I can work around your personal wishes for your pet in your home. This way, your fur baby can remain comfortable in an environment they are familiar with while you are away.

Information Samantha O. would like to know about your pet

Please provide any important medical history beforehand, especially regarding to specialized care/needs. All pets should be flea treated and current on vaccinations. If there are any special concerns with behavior while you’re away, please address these as well. If you need to shorten the amount of drop-ins after beginning our time together, there will be no refunds. Modifications may be made on a mutual agreement.

A typical day

I love connecting with your pet so their personality is a huge factor in how I proceed with them. Is your pooch super high energy with a love of the outdoors? A game of fetch in the yard would be perfect! Maybe you have a chill canine, who enjoys napping more than running. One-on-one time with lots of pets and conversation will do the trick! To each their own!

Pet care experience

I've had a number of pets since I was a small child, and I currently am the proud mama to 5 rescue cats and one rescue dog. I stay at home and care for them each and every day, feeding, cleaning up after, walking, bathing, administering medication, dispensing treats, playing with, and cuddling! I've volunteered at Animal Care Sanctuary, providing care for the animals as well as taking pictures and writing blog posts to aid in their adoptions. I've also worked there as their Administrative Assistant: Organizing events, processing adoptions, and managing files for each of the sanctuary's furry inhabitants! I truly empathize with animals and understand that they are very much family members themselves. You can rest assured that your pet is in loving arms when they are under my care.
