Pet care experience
Your Puppers New Best Friend
I had the joy of caring for my own fur baby for 12 wonderful years, he was truly my best friend and constant companion. Since his passing in 2022, I've continued to spend time with family dogs and have dog sat for pups of all ages, including seniors with special needs (Trouble walking down steps, medications etc). I treat every dog like my own, with lots of love, patience, and care.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a home with a large, secure backyard — perfect for giving your pup plenty of space to play, explore, and get fresh air. I work an office schedule from 8am–4pm, but I prioritize quality care, attention, and structured outdoor time when I’m home. I’m also happy to care for your pet in your home and can be flexible with visits and overnight stays as needed. I have experience with crate training and can safely crate your dog upon request. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine always come first!
Ratings and reviews
I was initially hesitant on using a dog/house sitter from this ap as first several sitter requests went unanswered & the only one that did respond that could accommodate cancelled the meet & greet 2xs at the last minute. I was going to bag it, but then read multiple positive reviews on Samantha. I reached out to her & was very happy that I did! Samantha sat our home & 4-footed friend for 8 days 10/29-11/6/25. From the outset, Sam was all the things the reviews said she was—Communicative, reliable, caring, responsive, respectful and above all else the dog whisperer we’d been looking for. It was a stretch for us to welcome a complete stranger into our home, however we’ve found that Samantha’s star sitter status is well-deserved & highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog &/or house sitting services. Thanks again, Samantha!
Sam was wonderful! She went above and beyond to make sure our pups were taken care of and comfortable. She gave updates everyday with really cute pictures. I would recommend to everyone!
This was our first time using Samantha, but it won’t be the last! She was communicative, and sent updates and pictures every day. She was respectful of our home and went above and beyond to make sure our fur babies were well cared for and got lots of love throughout the week. It was our first time finding a pet sitter online and I was so grateful to find Samantha. She is trustworthy and reliable and I hope to have her back in the future!
Sam was THE BEST!! Our dogs can be shy with new sitters but Sam put them at ease from the very start. We received daily updates which put our mind at ease. The house was clean when we got home but most importantly our dogs were happy and not stressed. Highly recommend Sam!!
Samantha was so patient and kind with our hesitant pups!!
Samantha was so thoughtful, courteous, and responsible. She paid careful attention to instructions and our dog responded well to her loving attention. We will be reaching out to her for dog sitting.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I work an office schedule Monday–Friday from 8:00 AM–4:00 PM, but I remain committed to providing safe, attentive, and reliable care for your pets. I’m available for morning visits or walks before leaving for work, and I can accommodate afternoon walks as needed — including stepping away from the office when my schedule allows. I also offer overnight care and will be present for your pet’s evening and nighttime routines to ensure consistency, comfort, and security. *House Sitting Clients - I want to be transparent about my schedule: I attend church on Monday from 7:00-8:00 PM, Wednesday and Friday from 7:30-9:15 PM, and on Sundays I am typically not home until 5:30-6:00 PM. Occasionally, I may have cancellations and will always keep you updated. I'm also a wife, so I may need to briefly step out to tend to things at my own home, but I'll always return promptly to make sure your pet is well cared for and comfortable*

- It’s important for me to know if your pet requires any medication, including the dosage and the method you prefer I use to give it—whether that’s with food, a treat, or another way. I’d also like to know if your pet has any mobility issues, like trouble going up or down stairs, so I can assist them safely. Lastly, please let me know about any specific behaviors I should be aware of—whether it’s anxiety triggers, reactivity, or quirks that help me understand them better and keep them comfortable and happy.
