Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment with a dog park. Caesar and I typically take about 2 trips to the dog park to play each day and go on a long walk. Caesar loves to play fetch and snuggle so we do a lot of that inside. I am able to do long walks, short runs, fetch, or provide as many snuggles as your pet needs.

Information Samantha T. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the dog’s temperament, dietary restrictions, abilities, and health issues and further concerns of the owner. I do not have breed restrictions but I do have size restrictions. To ensure that both the dog and I stay safe I would like a medium or small dog.

A typical day

Your dog might enjoy going on a very long walk or even a short run. I have a decent amount of energy myself and I love to play! We might even play fetch.

Pet care experience

I have been around animals from a very young age. My family has had animals ranging from exotic reptiles to cats and dogs. I got a 9 week old sheltie puppy in 2020 and he has been my family ever since. I am used to high energy dogs that can sometimes over express themselves. I can do light runs with energetic dogs or dogs that just need the exercise. At the age of 1 year my sheltie, Caesar, developed congenital arthritis in his elbows. I have to exercise him as if he were a senior dog. I also have experience caring for injured animals. This includes: supplement needs, medicine, massaging, resting, monitoring, etc. I can also do baths, nail trims, and brushing! Caesar is super friendly as well, so if your pup needs a playmate Caesar could join along.

Seeing Samantha interact with her dog reminds me of the loving relationship between mother and child. I've seen the lengths she goes to give her best every day to her dog and I know that she will extend the same effort and love to any dog that she interacts with. You would be lucky to get to know Samantha on both a professional level as a dog caregiver and as a kind person who brings joy and happiness to everyone around her.

Samantha is a very attentive pet owner and loves all animals. She has been around animals all of her life and loves spending time with them. She has helped me with my pets and always does a good job with them. She always makes sure of what they can and cannot have before she gives them any treats or food. Her own dog is always well groomed and trained. She makes sure she takes him to dog park regularly for exercise and socialization.

I have watched Samantha raise a young Sheltie from 7 weeks old as well as being a full time student and working full time. She is excellent at time management and gives the pups plenty of love and care. She is also one of the most responsible people I have ever met and I know that she will care for every dog that she watches as if it were her own.
