A pawsitively fun pet person 🐾
Pet care experience
I've helped take care of my family's huge 160 lb Alaskan Malamute dog, from food to walks to giving medicine. He's built my ability to walk dogs of all sizes and energy levels since he was a very strong and energetic puppy who constantly pulled. I have also trained him to perform tricks such as give a paw, speak, roll over, and even to play hide and seek around the house. Your dog(s) can rely on me for a fun walk, playtime, and fulfillment of whatever they need! "Dangerous" and stigmatized breeds: 🐕 Please note that I will never reject a dog based on their breed! All dogs deserve love and attention no matter their background. I have heard people call Alaskan Malamutes an aggressive breed but my dog Odin is the most loving teddy bear ever, so I know what that frustration is like. I'll care for your dog like my own! Other pets: 🐹🐾🐠 I'm an animal person in general! I have much experience caring for not only dogs but also cats, gerbils, guinea pigs, horses, and betta fish. By surrounding myself with animals, I've developed an intuitive understanding to their body language and an appreciation for their complex intelligence and affection. If you have other pets that need caring for as well, you can count on me; just ask! Gardening: 🪴🌷 Going for a vacation and need someone to water your plants? I have experience with indoor and outdoor gardening as well so I can care for all your fur and plant babies!

Reviews

Samantha asks all the right questions and is professional.


Samantha is amazing! She's very communicative and our dogs felt comfortable with her immediately

Samantha took excellent care of our standard poodle, walking, playing and feeding her during our extended trip. She provided clear and regular communication and respected our home. We will definitely work with her again.


Samantha was prompt with messages/responses and took very good of our cats!

I love to stimulate pets both physically and mentally as much as they need. We can take walks, jogs, and run around in a backyard or dog park. I also enjoy teaching tricks and playing games with them with their toys.
