About Samantha S.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced in acre of land and a brand new car that is reliable for any pick up needs. I also have multiple pet beds and toys at my house if any time there is requested. We lost our fur baby in January so my house may still have her scent in spots. I've lived in Gainesville for 6 years, but have known the roads of Gainesville for 12, so I am very comfortable with the town and know the best walking spots!

Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or commands, as well as if they have any triggers I should avoid if we are out and about. I want your pet to be just as comfortable with me as they are with you. I am married to an animal lover as well, if it's alright with you he may join us on a few walks if it's around lunch time.

A typical day

I can make my schedule match each pets needs. If they love being outside and playing I have the perfect toys for that! If they are couch buddies I would love to curl up and read a book with them. Need a good walk? I typically walk over 10 miles a day and would love to add your pet to my routine.

We have known Samantha for a long time and she has always been a kind trustworthy person. She has taken care of our dogs on many occasions without any problems. Our dogs love her and get very excited to see her. We can count on her to take care of them for a day or longer. Samantha would make an excellent addition to any company providing animal services.

Samantha has always loved dogs. She has helped me with all my dogs throughout the years, and she has been especially helpful with my current dog Maggie. Samantha is always willing to stay and take care of her while I travel, she walks Maggie whenever she comes to visit, she loves playing with Maggie and always watches out for her safety while playing in the yard. Samantha truly loves my dog, and I greatly appreciate that.

For as long as I have known Samantha she has been an animal lover. She grew up having pets her whole life and still continues to be around them. I have a 13 year old dog that she has frequently watched for me. The love and attention she gives him is just like myself. She also listens well to the instructions of his medicine and anything else I tell her. I definitely trust her with my dog!
