Information Samantha V. would like to know about your pet

Before I sit a dog I would prefer him/her be potty trained and good with small dogs and cats. I would prefer all dogs be comfortable around small children as well.

A typical day

I will take your pet on walks daily and I enjoy playing in the back yard with them. If your dog likes to swim in the summer i also have a large pool for them to enjoy.

Registered Veterinary Technician

Pet care experience

I am a Registered veterinary technician with an A.S. degree in veterinary technology. I work at an animal clinic and have experience 4 years in emergency medicine as well as I have 9 years of experience total in the care and handling of small cats and dogs along with medical knowledge to aid in any emergency or ailment that may arise so you can feel safe when your pet is with me. I recently bought a 2000 sq. ft home with a large backyard with room to run. I own two small dogs and a 3 month old puppy. I also have 3 indoor cats. Someone is always home at my house so your pet, if they were to stay with me, would never be alone. I hope you chose me to assist you with your pet care needs. I currently work Monday through Friday until 430pm. Mostly available weekends and some holidays. Available for walking every day if needed and for drop ins daily. I have a decently sized backyard with a fenced pool and a covered patio with misting system and fans and cool pads for the summer and dog houses with beds and blankets for the winter

We appreciated Samantha’s help with our two little old dogs so much! Our girl is particularly paralyzed, she had no problem helping her express her bladder. And our boy is an anxious mess when we leave, she was so patient and kind to him. We’d recommend Samantha to anyone! Thank you again!

Samantha did a great job taking care of my cat. She was very good at providing updates and little snippets of description of what my kitty had been up to that day. Photographs too. I felt comfortable that my pet was being well cared for.

Samantha took care of our three dogs for a few days while we were out of town. She was great with communication and was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. The dogs were clean at pickup and were very well taken care of. Thanks again!!
