Availability
This is my second business (look me up: weavervilledogwalker.com). My primary work is as a developmental editor & writing coach for authors, academics, and business owners. I make my own schedule and work remotely, so I can set up at your place as long as the internet is good. I do a lot of coaching calls and my clients always enjoy saying hi to the dogs on zoom. :)

About Samantha P.
Communication
Dog skills
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 take lots of let selfies. If your lil’ buddy needs more constant companionship, I can bring my work to your place!
Information Samantha P. would like to know about your pet
The most important thing to note is allergies and sensitivities. Most pet parents are already on top of this, but def let me know about things like environmental allergies, if there’s lots of ticks where you live, etc. It’s also good to know if your dog eats stuff they’re not supposed to on walks.
A typical day
Playing, cuddling, many pet selfies, if they can sit for a portrait… that too! If you have a breed that needs daily brushing, I’m down. I am also very good at cutting a cat’s nails. 💅 Just sayin.

Pet care experience
Dogs tend to love me at first sight…and the feeling is mutual. I’m very attuned and sensitive to animal body language, indulgent like the best auntie but I won’t let them be too naughty. 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.”

Reviews

Samantha is excellent - she is very trustworthy and my dog loves her! She cares about your fur babies like they are her own. Highly recommend! 🩵

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.
