Dog Days of Sam
Hi! My name is Sam, and I have a huge love for animals — especially dogs. I live on the first floor of a duplex in Riverwest and work from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and lots of time to give pets the attention they deserve. I have two cats and a dog of my own, so I’m very used to different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I’m currently available for dog walking, dog day care, and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. Pets in my care get plenty of cuddles, playtime, exercise, love, and attention. I treat every animal like they’re one of my own. To make sure every pet gets calm, focused care, I take a limited number of bookings each day. I typically take up to two walks or drop-in visits per day, depending on timing and location. If I’m providing dog day care in my home, I usually don’t schedule additional walks or drop-ins that day so everyone gets the attention they deserve. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Pets I watch are treated like royalty and get lots of attention, exercise, and loving! I allow dogs on my furniture and provide a lot of positive reinforcement.
Ratings and reviews
Samantha was amazing my new dog Sharkboy! She took a pretty last minute booking with a meet and greet and all went well and she took him in for basically an entire Saturday. She sent pictures of them having fun and really took great care of him as he's coming out of his shell more and more. Her dog V and her cats are also super friendly and welcoming! Would highly recommend!

Samantha was a terrific caretaker for Griffey! She was very flexible and understanding of our timing for pick up and drop off. She also sent us a great amount of photo and text updates about how Griffey was doing throughout the stay. She asked thoughtful questions and clearly cares very much about delivering high quality care for pets and their owners. I'd use Samantha again and would recommend her to anyone else looking for a boarding option in Milwaukee!

Samantha was great! She was amazing at keeping me updated on Bella’s stay. Every picture sent, Bella looked as though she fit right in. She seemed relaxed and content. Thank you Samantha!

Sam was great with our dogs. She let us know about their outings and sent some cute pics!
Was a little nervous to use Rover again after a bad experience, but Samantha put us at ease right away. She sent me a message when she arrived, lots of photos and updates. My girls loved her, and Samantha was amazing with them, she even got my pug to take a pill which can be difficult. Will definitely use Samantha again, highly recommend!!!


Samantha was so great with our kitten on our most recent trip! This was the second time we've had her check on our cat and she did an awesome job! We loved getting the pictures at each visit. It was so much easier to relax knowing that our cat was in great hands!!
