Vet technician experience

Pet care experience

Animals are everything to me! I was previously a veterinary technician, however, life happened and I had to find a higher paying job to accommodate life changes. I have grown up with animals my whole life; cats, dogs, rabbits, exotic birds. I am very knowledgeable, reliable, understanding, easy going, caring, professional and kind. I will treat your pets as if they are my own; meaning they will be absolutely spoiled and loved while in my care! I can provide additional services; nail trims, baths, ear cleanings, etc. You name it and I’ll work with you!

Samantha took great care of my two labradoodles . She sent pictures of them everyday which I loved. I could tell they were having a blast playing with her dogs. Huge fenced in area for playtime

Sam is amazing! She sent lots of updates, gave my puppy a bath after she spent all day rolling around outside, and made me feel really comfortable! 10/10!

Absolutely amazing!! I have a 2 year old special needs little guy who is deaf and blind. She took such great care of him! I was so worried as he was attacked by another dog at the kennel this summer requiring stitches. He LOVES other dogs but I am now a little paranoid. Being deaf and blind he is not able to pick up on most social cues, so of course some dogs do not appreciate that. She took the time to check in with me each spay and let me know how he was doing. She also carefully introduced him to her dogs (I wanted him to be able to play with other dogs as he loves it!) to ensure they could play well together. She even made sure to give him cuddle time! I will definitely be using her any time I come to the area!

Safety, trust & environment

I have recently opened a doggie hotel behind our house. Each doggie “room” includes a covered porch to enjoy the nature. The doggie hotel has AC/heat, LED lighting, fully hoseable, continuous drainage and much more. It use veterinarian grade cleaners/sanitation. There are two fenced in areas on the property that allows your pets to be able to run free and have a great time! The largest fenced in area being an acre! We are working on one more fenced in play areas for the pups to enjoy. They are not limited to the doggie hotel, boarded pets are welcome to our house as long as they are cat friendly. There are plenty of toys to play with but you can of course bring your pets favorite toy(s) just so they feel more comfortable. I recommend you to bring their dog bed/toys to make them feel more at home. Please let me know ahead of time if your pet is dog/cat/food/toy aggressive. I do not have my pets interact with others unless the client is ok with it and I feel comfortable with it. I welcome all sizes, ages and breeds into my house!
