I provide excellent care for all!
Pet care experience
I have taken care of pets from a young age, with neighbors relying on me to walk dogs and take care of their cats. Over the past year, I have consistently trained my parent's Weimaraner puppy to sit, high-five, wait, and shake. I have experience in walking and playing with high-energy pups and senior dogs, and can handle all breeds and age's!
Reviews
Sam is a lifesaver! Odin has been my trusty remote coworker for the past few years, so I was worried about returning to the office and leaving him alone during the day. He can also be overbearing when excited, but Sam handles and plays with him like a champ! She is a very thorough communicator and always gives detailed reports after visits. I’m able to focus on work during the days I know she’s going to visit because I can count on her top-notch care and attention. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Samantha was awesome with my large senior Pitbull/Mastiff mix, Jack. She is very punctual and communicative with drop ins and always takes the extra time to send a couple photos which provide peace of mind for me. Will definitely book her for future sitter needs. Wish she could come with us when we move to DC!!!
Samantha has been wonderful, would absolutely continue to work with her. She always shows up when she says she will, communicates when she is on the way, and helps with our senior pet who sometimes is slow moving or has accidents. Shes kind and we appreciate her assistance so much!
Samantha has been great for our Luna. She takes time to help us with training Luna, and taught her high five! She works with Luna on her leash to pull less and be a good walking companion. Samantha has been responsive and flexible for walks. Luna loves her time with Samantha!
