Your Pup's Home Away From Home
I've been taking care of animals my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family rely on me babysit their pets while they are away, and call on me in emergency situations for advice with behavioural or health related issues. My love for animals knows no bounds - I currently volunteer with Marshall's Dog Rescue as well as Freedom Dog Rescue and only babysit when I do not have a foster in home. I have experience with puppies as young as 8 weeks as well as older, senior dogs.

Samantha awesome took such great care of my fur baby, so happy she was left overnight with her.

Couldn’t have asked for better care for our pups! Thank you!
Wow! My dogs just loved her, and she just took the most amazing pictures of the boys. Would definitely reach out to Samantha again in the future!
Samantha is an exceptionally responsible and loving pet caregiver. She goes above and beyond to ensure every animal in her care feels safe, happy, and well-loved.

I highly recommend her to anyone seeking dependable, compassionate pet care.

Schedule
I work in a seasonal industry and as such, am laid off for the winter months. I am home all day and able to walk and play with your pup until we are both exhausted!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a quiet village with lots of back roads, perfect for quiet walks. I have a pack of aussie mixes - two rescues - so there will also be friends to play with and your pup will never be lonely. Is there something you've been trying to work on with your dog? A trick? Crate training? Let me know and I'll be happy to help while they're with me!
Pets
A typical day
Boarding/daycare: Did you know? Adult dogs typically sleep 12–14 hours a day, with a long stretch at night and naps during the day. We start the morning with an early outdoor break, followed by breakfast and at least an hour of quiet digestion time. Then come our morning walks and optional playtime. Once everyone’s tuckered out, we settle in for a relaxing snooze. Later, we head out for another walk to stretch our legs, then enjoy some brain games or light training. After supper, we settle down for some cuddles while we digest. We'll finish up the evening with another walk before heading to bed. I take pictures throughout the day and WILL bombard you with them - who wouldn't want cute pictures of their dog having fun! Drop-ins: Does your dog constantly stop to smell the "roses"? I don't mind. Our walk(s) will allow for plenty of stop-n-sniff time. We will practice road etiquette (sitting before we cross) as leash manners. I have time for when you don't!
