Your Pet's Home Away From Home

I have been around animals all my life. I grew up in a home where animals are treated like family. You have to show them TLC. I currently have five dogs and five cats at home. The majority of them are rescues. I have rescued many animals and foster them until i find a home for them. I am great with any animal and know how to take care of them in any certain situation.

Samantha was absolutely wonderful looking after my dog, Micha. She was incredibly attentive and took her on long walks, which Micha absolutely loved. She also provided plenty of care, affection, and attention every single time she came to the house to pick her up. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing Micha was in such great hands. I will definitely use her services again!

Samantha did a wonderful job watching our pups. She kept us updated everyday with pictures and an explanation of how they were doing. She followed our older dogs Cosequin schedule as well as their feeding schedule. We already have her booked for another house sitting.

My pups were so happy hanging with Samantha this weekend! They loved going on walks, and I loved knowing they were having their own little vacation 🥰

Samantha took wonderful care of Dino! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Dino came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. She was kind, attentive, and made sure he was comfortable. I truly appreciate the love and care she gave him. I would definitely trust her with Dino again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Samantha! ❤️🐶

Schedule

I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets in my care. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while maintaining their normal routine.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions from the owner. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their environment clean and reducing stress during their owner's absence.

Pets

A typical day

I love keeping pets happy and engaged! Depending on each pet's personality and energy level, I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch or tug-of-war, providing enrichment toys or puzzle games, practicing basic commands, giving lots of affection, and spending quiet time cuddling if that's what they enjoy. I always tailor activities to the pet's age, needs, and the owner's preferences.

Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their daily routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, favorite activities, fears, and any special instructions. Understanding each pet's personality helps me provide care that keeps them comfortable, safe, and happy while there owner is away.
