Our pets deserve the world!

Pet care experience

It is because our pets deserve so much, I would love to assist in making that happen! I have always had pets growing up, a cat and now a total of 4 dogs (Medium - Large Mutts). This has become my life. I have cared for several families' dogs. Those include: English Bulldog (puppy), Samoyed, Wolf-Hybrid (puppy). One being an hour Drop-In plus a walk, the others I've stayed at their home to care for. I've worked at two doggie daycares in recent years that contains several breeds and mixes, ranging from Extra Small to Extra (Extra) Large. I work from home now and still desire to work with animals on a daily basis so I would like to make some extra money outside of work doing just that! Since I work remotely, I have a lot of flexibility for when it comes to your ideal times to visit / give walks. This is as long as it doesn't run into previously booked visits, of course. During dog walks, the only time I have my phone out is to take pictures for your report card if requested. This way I'm able to stay focus soley on your pup. Same goes for home visits, your request time is to not only to simply check on your pet, but also ensure they're happy, seem healthy, and content with their owners absence.

Samantha is an outstanding dog walker. We have a challenging and leash reactive dog, but she walks him daily without issues and also helps train him away from reactive behavior. We have tried several dog walkers and while all have been good, our dog seems the most joyful around Samantha, and we come home to a happy and excited puppy daily after his walks with her. She also leaves detailed notes daily about walks and takes some great photos. It is our good fortune that our dog gets cared for by Samantha during the week.

Samantha is very timely with her visits. She communicates better than any other rover sitter I’ve used. She is very kind, gentile and friendly. The dogs loved her and I got 4-5 pictures at each visit and a great detailed description of how the visit went. I highly highly recommend!!! 5 stars for sure!!!!

Sam is an amazing dog walker - smart, skilled and reliable. She handles my sweet but stubborn reactive dog so well. I’m so glad I found her!!
