Safety, trust & environment

I have two friendly dogs and four loving cats to keep your pets company. The cats also have their own space if your dog is not feeling like feline companionship. I'm also happy to come to your home to care for your pets in their own environment if that's easier for you. I am trained in pet CPR and first aid and have extensive experience caring for special needs pets.

Information Samantha P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pets have any special needs and I'll be happy to accommodate them. This can include allergies, medications, likes, dislikes, fear sources if any, etc. I want to make sure we are set up for a successful and stress-free time!

A typical day

I have high energy pets, so I'm used to several fetch sessions a day, we play tug all the time, and the lazer pointer is the most used gadget in my house on a daily basis. We go on long walks around the neighborhood, usually while working on our training. I'd also love to take any high energy dog to a Sniffspot for a dedicated one hour session in a private, safe, fully fenced area. We can pick the best spot together!

Pet care experience

I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful 3-month-old puppies to 18-year-old seniors. My background includes senior care, post-surgery recovery, positive reinforcement training, and caring for dogs with special needs. I also have experience with cats from newborn kittens to 20-year-old seniors, including pregnancy and maternity care, neonatal kittens, post-surgery recovery, feral cats, and cats with special needs. At home, I have two rescue pit bulls that I've trained myself using positive reinforcement, as well as four rescue cats—one of whom was feral and pregnant when I adopted her. Caring for my own pets has given me plenty of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of each animal's unique personality and needs. For high-energy dogs, I'm also happy to take them on fun outings to private, fully fenced Sniffspots where they can safely run, play, sniff, and burn off energy during a dedicated one-hour session. I truly love animals of all kinds and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs extra patience, specialized care, lots of playtime, or simply some love and attention, I'd be honored to help. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members!
