Pet care experience

Dog walking, Boarding, and snuggles

I was a Vet assistant for 7 years, before going to school to be a unit clerk in the hospitals. I have a ton of medical knowledge to provide extra safety for your little ones. Currently we have no animals in our home due to having young kids. They are extremely interested in pets and we will get one when the time in right. For now we would love to enjoy the company of other families pets. All dog walking will be with NO kids.

Sam did a great job checking on Eric while we were away and making sure he was fed and looked after.

Our dogs had the best time with Samantha. She took great care of them and spoiled them. She was very easy to work with cared for our dogs as they were one of her own. I would highly recommend having Samantha care for your pets and will definitely book with her again whenever we need our dogs cared for.

Samantha and her family did a great job taking care of our shih tzu rescue on the weekend. Our dog loved her little girls and they were very good to her. They are a very sweet family and we highly recommend them!

I couldn’t have been more at ease knowing that Sage was being looked after by Samantha and her family. They are very attentive and loved Sage as their own. She took Sage out for many hikes and walks and gave her so many cuddles. When we picked Sage up, she looked like she did not miss us at all which is a beautiful thing. Made us feel good that she felt super comfortable. Highly recommend!
