Dogs are my life!
Pet care experience
I am an avid dog lover with a ton of energy to keep up with any dog. I have 2 Miniature Dachshunds, Nelly and Cheeto, who I adore. We love long walks, cuddling, and playing at the dog park. I have had many dogs throughout my life, big and small. My mom and I also used to foster all types of dogs for years, so I can work with small, medium or large dogs no problem. I also am good at communicating so if an owner wants updates on their dog I am more than happy to do that. I am easy to work with and I can get along with any dog. If you need a friendly dog walker or watcher, I am the girl for you!
About Samantha S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
At my home, I have 2 Miniature Dachshunds that are friendly with other dogs, so the dogs I watch would need to be friendly as well. I live in an apartment but I live next to multiple parks and paths where my dogs and I love going on walks and to play fetch. There are also a few different dog parks within a few blocks that we frequent, if that is something that the owner would want. I have PLENTY of dog toys as well. I will follow the directions from the client on how to enter and exit, and make sure to lock up or follow any specific instructions. I will perform the tasks that were asked and make sure I greet the dog in a friendly and gentle manner.

Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet
How is your dog on a leash? Does the pet get along with other dogs? People friendly? Allergies or any dietary restrictions? Toys they can or cannot have? Any fears or anxieties?
A typical day
I am a runner so I can run with dogs or go on long walks and I love going to the dog park if that is an option. I also love walking to cafes or restaurants with patios for the dogs. I also have friends with cats that I have cared for so I am familiar and have no problem taking care of cats
