Pet care for all animals :)
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Sam! I have a degree in general science and am certified in Feline Nutrition. I am also certified in Canine Holistic Health and Therapy and am planning on getting my certification for canine nutrition as well. I have a real passion for raw feeding, the way nature intended it to be :) I’m also certified in pet first aid and did complete a degree program in dog training although I haven’t really put that one to use yet. I have also previously worked at an AAHA acreddited Veterinary Clinic as a vet tech, a doggy daycare and as a professional dog walker for 6+ years. I currently have 2 cats, 2 ferrets, and a dog of my own! I also have had hamsters, gerbils, turtles, hermit crabs, fish, geckos, and even beetles as pets so I’m more than comfortable taking care of any responsibilities or care that your dog or cat may need! I also offer any pet sitting services for other animals as well, such as the ones listed above but if you have a pet that I did not mention, feel free to ask and I’m sure I would be more than able to accommodate! I am also comfortable giving medications to animals, such as insulin shots and oral medications (pill or liquid). I look forward to caring for your fur babies!!
Reviews
Samantha did such a great job taking care of my little ones. She’s an expert cat sitter and was meticulous including cleaning around the litter area. Will definitely recommend her as well as ask for her to help again.
Sam and Mike did a phenomenal job taking care of our two year old German Shepard for a long weekend. Visits always started on time and she provided many updates and photos. We really appreciated how she played with the dog in the yard to burn some of his energy. Additionally she was able to give him his medication. We will definitely be using Sam and Mike for our dog care needs in the future. They were reliable and responsible.
Samantha was amazing!! We were so nervous leaving our cats for a week (the longest we've ever been gone) but she sent us pictures and updates with each visit. She made sure our automatic feeders hadn't jammed and refilled our babies' emotional support water cup each time. One of our cats is a pandemic baby and is shy so he hid behind the couch every time she came over but she still managed to get pictures of him for us. We will definitely be booking Samantha again for future extended vacations!!!
Sam is amazing! I'm so happy I found her to watch my cat while I go away on vacation. My cat is diabetic and needs 2 insulin shots per day, and I'm completely at ease with Sam taking care of him. She sends lots of pictures and updates during her visits with him. I'm so thankful for her!!!

Of course, please let me know if your dog has shown any aggression or has any certain triggers such as specific sounds. Also, let me know if they have any allergies if I will be feeding them and if they need any medication!
A typical day
We can play a bunch of games in the backyard, as well as taking them for walks and to nearby parks and trails! We can also just hang out inside on the couch if your dog is particularly lazy :)
