Safety, trust & environment

I have knowledge, patience, and love for pets who's owners may be worried about having a pet sitter due to their pet's reactivity, shyness, or extra needs. I can work with owners to find the best way to keep their pets feeling safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am good at getting dogs in crates and on walks. I love all pets, no matter what size and age.

Extra Love and Care

Pet care experience

I have always been known to be a pet lover and truly do care and love pets. I have dog sat since I was a kid and always try to give pets extra love and care while their family is away. I have had experiences in the past with dogs who are reactive, have health issues, or need extra patience and time. I trained my dog Bunny since she was 3 months old and am experienced with potty training, crate training, and basic commands. I also have an elderly 12 year old dog who has joint issues and needs extra help occasionally. I am not afraid to give medicine or do any extra medical care if provided with instructions.

Sam was amazing with my spoiled 85-pound goofball, Denver. She handled medications and gave him the stable human he needed while we were out for a week. She even watered our plants and brought in our mail. Very communicative and dependable. Highly recommend!

Samantha is my dog sitter when I go on vacation. She is very good with my 13-year-old poodle mix. My elder dog needs assistance getting in and out of cars and taking her medicine. Samantha makes sure that she's taken care of and doesn't hurt herself. I highly recommend her!

Samantha has looked after dogs and cats for my family and friends several times throughout the years. Samantha is always so loving with our pets and they always get so excited when she comes to see them. It's obvious she enjoys spending time with them, making sure to research each breed and behavior to accommodate for our pets in every way possible. Samantha is attentive, smart, and cares a lot about animals, I can't recommend her enough.
