Highlights
Pet care experience
13 yrs. Experience with Dogs
I have 13 years of experience with dogs of different ages, breeds, and different health conditions. I have a 5 year old Affenpinscher with Patellar Luxation and Pancreatitis. My dog in the past also had Dementia, a heart condition, and poor eyesight in her remaining eye. I’m able to give eye drops and oral medication if needed, please provide thorough written medication instructions. I’ve had volunteer experience in a dog salon and animal shelter. I’m able to bathe, dry, and brush your pups if needed (at no extra charge), if they require a special shampoo/conditioner please let me know, and send it with during their stay. I have an assortment of brushes and combs, so you don’t need to pack any, unless you’d prefer your pups to be brushed with their own brushes (your own brushes and combs will not be shared with other dogs). I am not a trainer, but have some experience with dog agility training, and basic obedience (sit, lay down, stay, leave it), so I can help maintain those cues during their stay. I have a 5 year old Affenpinscher, who loves making new doggy friends to play with. *NO PRIVATE bookings. ALL bookings MUST be made through the Rover website/app/company. ALL updates (photos and messages) during booking will be sent through the Rover app. as well. *I do all of my meet and greets at the same location, the Grand Trunk/Lauderdale off leash dog park, in the small dog fenced area. I require a meet and greet for ALL NEW clients. *Please provide veterinarian information as well, such as name/location/address and phone number. In case of emergency dogs will be taken to the nearest vet clinic.* I’m happy to provide reference upon request. If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to send me a message. (:

Ratings and reviews
Left Koda with Samantha for second time and she is great. You can tell she really cares about dogs and treats them very well. Would highly recommend
Samantha provided great care for our mini schnauzer while we were away. We received daily updates about her activities and were do happy to see that that has made some new pet (& human) friends. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again! Thank you Samantha!
She was awesome and sent updates and pics. Would definitely use again. You can tell she loves dogs
Always easy to book with and truly cares about providing comfort for our dog and us. Provides updates regularly. Pretty sure Mojo misses all the attention when we take her home.
Another great experience with Samantha. Mojo makes herself right at home and Samantha communicates with us daily on how she is doing. Thank you for taking such good care of her.
Bandido was very well taken care of with Samantha and she kept me up to date on how he was doing throughout the day. I will definitely repeat her again in case I need a dog sitter and I hope that she also wants to take care of my spoiled Bandido.

Schedule
I can be home full time for dogs that need extra care and are unable to be left by themselves. The only time I’d have to leave is for an appointment.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced backyard, but I still monitor doggy’s while they are in the backyard. If you’d like your doggy to be crated at night and/or when left at home, please provide their own kennel/crate. I send photos and updates of your doggy to you, but you’re welcome to message to check in as much as you’d like. For safety precautions all collars are only worn while we are on a walk or in the backyard (I monitor the entire time). Collars are taken off at night and if I need to step out of the house for a bit.
Pets
A typical day
- I have a fenced yard where I can monitor at all times while they’re outside, there is room to run around and play. - There are a few steps on the deck, so if your doggy has trouble with stairs, I can carry them up and down them or there is a ramp in the backyard. - I live near a large field and extra long leashes (I require them to be on leash at all times while not being in a fenced area) which are great for running around. - I have tons of dog beds, blankets, plush toys, bully sticks, small tennis balls, rope toys, small frisbees, and petite size Greenie dental chews, but if you’d feel more comfortable sending with your dogs own bed, toys, and bones, etc., that’s okay.
