Highlights
Pet care experience
Can your dog come out to play?
I’m very attuned and sensitive to animal body language. Dogs tend to love me at first sight—and the feeling is mutual. 😂 I’m like the cool auntie who’s always ready to play, but I am also super observant and can see when a dog is tired, overstimulated, cranky, etc. I don’t take animal behavior personally. I just watch and respond. Until the hurricane I was volunteering at Brother Wolf, walking every kind of dog from the super leash-pull-y to the “just want to sit in the shade and never go home.”

Safety, trust & environment
As much as I’d love to offer boarding services for dogs, I have a sweet cat at home who would not appreciate this. :) Instead, give me all your intricately detailed instructions, your pet’s weird quirks, and whatever other anxious pet-parent stuff you want me to know. I will hold it all, follow it to the letter, be so sweet to your baby—plus I’ll send you photos to keep you updated. I also like to leave a note when I’m done to let you know how we did. If your lil’ buddy needs more constant companionship, I can bring my work to your place! I don’t even need WiFi, I can hotspot from my phone. 🙌🏽
Ratings and reviews
Samantha was great! Recommend.
My second booking with Sam was excellent. She handles my dogs’ separation anxiety and looming stomach issues with ease and I can tell when I come home that both my dog and my cat are happy and haven’t skipped a beat in their routine. Thank you so much Sam!
Sam was wonderful! She sent us updates and pictures daily. We came home to a clean house and happy pups! So great knowing our dogs were in great hands and happy while we were away.
Sam was great! She communicated with photos and more! Pepper loved her. I'd recommend her and use her again, for sure. Thank you, Sam!
Sam has been great! She lets me know how Tilly did , what time she arrived and sends photos. I definitely recommend her
I can’t thank Sam enough for taking good care of my anxious dog who hates it when I have the audacity to leave. She was great with my weirdo cat and excellent with my stressed out pup and I came home feeling like my space was treated with respect and well cared for. Thank you so so much Sam!

Schedule
I have my own business as an editor and copywriter. I make my own schedule and often work from home, so short notice could work IF it’s in the Weaverville/N. Asheville area. With more advance notice, I could clear my schedule or plan it around your pet care needs.
