Samantha was super helpful to our family when we visited her area for a college reunion and needed care for our sweet, elderly dog. We would definitely use her as a sitter again.

Samantha made everything wonderful for our dog, Stanley, while we were away. She sent messages and pictures to keep me updated on how things were going. I would highly recommend Samantha as a dog sitter!!

We really appreciated Sam's willingness to watch our golden lab Allie, even though she didn't have a lot of notice. She sent us updates, photos, and videos while we were on our trip, and Allie appeared to very happy! Sam was also creative in dealing with Allie's quirk of taking some time to get used to noncarpeted floors. And Allie seemed to enjoy having some canine friends for the week. We've used kennels in the past, but I think Sam and her home and family are a better fit for Allie, so we plan to use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

I have both a fenced area with covered deck space, as well as, a tie-out. I am happy to except dogs with medical issues, seniors and puppies 3+ months (Yes, I watch them extremely close). I require that all dogs staying in my home are current on all vaccines, provided with flea & tick medication, as well as, heartworm prevention. I absolutely will NOT tolerate any agression towards people or dogs. This is a furniture and bed friendly home. Most of my floors are hard surfaces. However, this is my home not a steel cage, therefore, I will NOT permit destruction of my furniture or property, you may be liable. I require a meet & greet with yourself & dog(s) a minimum of 48hrs prior to your/their 1st stay. There will NEVER be more than 5 dogs in my home including my own 3. I have a one family two dogs maximum.
