Pet care experience
Since I was born, there has always been a dog in my home and I have loved every second of it. Throughout my life, I have continued to have a close relationship with dogs and like to think of myself as a sort of dog-whisperer. Not only have I cared for my own dogs but I have years of experience pet-sitting and walking dogs who belonged to family, friends, acquaintances, and multiple neighbors spanning from tiny Terriers to gigantic German Shepherds. I also have some experience working at an animal shelter, specifically with more mature dogs. I have a super flexible schedule and am available almost any hour of the week and weekend (excluding 8-9 am Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays). I understand most people's occupations force them to leave their beloved best friend behind for hours on end and I want to be the person to relieve you of that stress and give them a little companionship! Living in Downtown Phoenix I understand it can be difficult for your dog to get all the exercise it may need! Luckily, I am always happy to pick up your pup for a walk, a run, or even just some casual playtime. I want your dog to have the best time, all the time. Even when their favorite person (you) is gone.
Reviews
Samantha did a great job taking care of our dog and two cats while we were away on our trip! The pets really liked her and she was great about sending us photo updates ☺️
Samantha has been walking our dog and house sitting for us for the last month. She's done a great job, super quick to respond to requests, always shows up on time, and fills out a cute walk report. We would definitely recommend her if you're looking for a dog walker or house sitter :)
Samantha was GREAT! She came over for a meet and greet with our pup and was friendly, caring and a great communicator. We booked her for a walk and she showed up on time, gave our pup a walk, sent pictures and even helped out with some mischief our dog got into while we were out. We would definitely book Samantha again.
Sam LOVES dogs. Your dog(s) will be in the best hands with Sam. Her heart melts when she sees any and all dogs. She is not only loving toward dogs but responsibile, reliable, dependable. She will dedicate her time to ensure your dog has all the love and attention they are accustomed to, if not more. I trust her completely.

Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet
-Does your dog get along with strange dogs and people we might see on walks or at the dog park? I'm always willing to cross the street to avoid someone or another dog. Just want to be safe and make sure your dog feels secure! -Does your dog have any special needs that should be addressed? -Favorite toy? Always want to make sure playtime is the best it can be. -Do you have a preferred veterinarian nearby? -Any health restrictions? Particularly dietary?
A typical day
I am young enough to keep up with the most energetic dogs as well as relaxed enough to spend time with the laziest. All dogs are good dogs in my eyes whether they want to go on a run, or just need me for some pets. I also enjoy hiking, jogging, walking, and going to the dog park! I'm happy to socialize with your dog and be as active as needed. However, if your pup is a little more shy and reclusive, I am more than willing to spend that much needed one-on-one time.
