I have a chain link fence around my yard, one portion between house/garage is not fenced, but I have a giant hockey goal that acts like a fence and holds everyone in the backyard really well! Our dog loves to do her zoomies in our back yard!

Information Samantha T. would like to know about your pet

I would like to meet your dog before you leave for vacation (a meet + greet!). I usually do meet + greets at my house so you can see our backyard and meet our dog Laika! I'd also like to know if there are any spots on them that they don't like to be touched (for example, my previous dog didn’t like her tail being touched). I would also like to know if they have any seizures or medical needs to look for.

A typical day

I don't mind if your dog is a little extra furry because my van is already covered in dog "glitter" from my husky. We can go on walks anywhere you see fit. I usually let my dog run around our backyard! She tires easily, but with energetic friends we like to run around the yard to get tons of exercise! I can take your dog up and down our street/Pennsy Trail, if that’s something you’d want! We are adventurous, so we like to go everywhere! I can play with your dog with all of his/her toys until they tire out!

Extreme Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

September 2025: Boarding for new clients is back open! I can’t wait to meet new friends! 🥰 I have an 8 year old daughter and a dog named Laika (11 years old), our cat Floyd, and countless feral cats outside! My family and I love animals, and we always make them top priority when visiting our home. Every night around 9pm, I send a text to you explaining what your pup has done ALL day! I also include photos! I have over 50 five-star reviews from some of THE BEST clients and I’m so grateful for this opportunity to put your mind at ease when you have to leave your furry friend behind. I know the feeling all too well and it rips at my heart when I have to leave my own dog behind. Which is why I love sending text messages of what we have done throughout the day so you know your dog is being very well cared for! I've always had a dog in my life, and I couldn't imagine a life without one. My husky is my best friend and travel buddy, and every little furry friend we meet on our journeys have always loved us. I'm experienced at giving animals any medications they need, and ample play time! I love dogs of all ages and sizes, and I follow instructions to a T! I will love it as if it's my own!

We had a wonderful boarding experience with Samantha! She sent daily updates with pictures and videos. She accommodated our dog’s needs perfectly and we could tell he was happy as can be! Looking forward to using her services again soon.

Samantha was amazing. She sent us so many pictures and videos of our dog George and kept us up-to-date on what was going on. We changed our plans a few times on when we were coming home and she was so accommodating and willing to do whatever worked best for us. We will 100% be using her in the future!!

Samantha was fantastic. She is so sweet & very communicative. She sent daily updates & pictures. It was clear from her updates that she was enjoying Sophie & getting to know her quirks! She's an obvious animal lover!
