Safety, trust & environment

Safety is always my top priority! I will ensure your pet is protected in and out of the home using safe practices when entering/ exiting the home, having full control and attention on walks, and using good judgment and your preferences when interacting with any other pets.

Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, specific commands, allergies, triggers (other animals, children, bikes, etc.), favorite toys, and calming techniques. I strive to ensure they are happy and comfortable!

A typical day

As I get to know you and your pet I’ll be sure to adjust their play time to their needs. If that’s running around the block, playing fetch until my arm falls off, sniffing every flower, or cuddling on the couch.

Pets

Loving your pets like I love my own

Pet care experience

I am flexible with my availability. Please message me if you need special timing. My puppy is my world and I’ll give the same care and love to your pets! I have cared for horses, dogs, cats, gerbils, fish, chickens, and lizards since I was young and have always strived to give them loving and engaging lives. I have volunteered with multiple wildlife rescue organizations providing specialized diets, enrichment, and medical care. I have successfully completed two full training programs with my puppy working individually and in a group. I have experience with reactive dogs, keeping them and others safe while still providing a fun time outside. I have cared for senior dogs, providing medications, cleaning, and having fun at their pace.

Samantha has been such a blessing to us! We are able to leave on trips and go out for long periods of time with no worries since we know our baby is in Safe hands!

Samantha did a great job sitting for my cats! The pictures she sent were testament to how comfortable they were with her. I appreciate how tidy she kept the cat boxes.
