Friendly, loving walker + runner!

Pet care experience

I really love dogs and I really love to exercise outdoors! I grew up with multiple dogs for the majority of my life and hold such a special place in my heart for them. I’m comfortable with all sizes and ages—I’ve cared for a range from small, elderly dogs, to German Shepard puppies, to adult Aussies and Rhodesian ridgebacks! As a casual, but enthusiastic marathon runner, I would also be so happy to work with dogs who require a bit more cardio exercise. I currently have three delightful indoor cats and am looking to add a bit more canine into my life! I can’t wait to meet your pup! As a cat lover, I would love to care for your cat while you are out of town—from stopping by once a day to feed and play to overnight stays. Rates are flexible! Open to discussion and adjustment depending on specific details!

Samantha is professional, reliable and trustworthy! She frequently watches my kitties and they are always happy and everything is in top shape! I never have any doubts or worries leaving my animals in her care!

Information samantha s. would like to know about your pet

Please share if there are any particular needs or behaviors to accommodate or look for. Understanding how much exercise a dog needs, if they are comfortable with approaching other dogs, and any potential anxiety inducing activities, people, or objects is extremely helpful!

A typical day

I love to encourage activity and play in many forms! Your pup and I would play games (fetch, tug, practicing commands), walk and/or run the oak leaf trail with all of its fun sights and smells! We could also trek down to the lake and/or beach for some additional stimulation. I love to finish up the day for longer overnight stays with lots of pets and snuggling!
