About Samantha v.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine. I only host one dog at a time (unless from the same family) to ensure personalized attention and a low-stress stay. I’m home most of the day, and dogs are rarely left alone. I follow each pet’s routine closely and prioritize safety, clean environments, and respectful handling at all times.

Information Samantha v. would like to know about your pet
I love learning each pet’s personality and routine ahead of time. Please share any important details like feeding schedule, leash behavior, sensitivities, or preferences. The more I know, the better I can make your pet feel safe and comfortable.
A typical day
A typical day includes structured walks, enrichment, and calm downtime. I adapt the routine to each dog’s energy level, whether that means longer outdoor walks, playtime, or slower senior-friendly outings.I love exploring dog-friendly areas around the Loop and Riverwalk while keeping safety and comfort the top priority.

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Samantha, a full-time pet caregiver in the Loop. I’m calm, attentive, and very safety-focused. I follow your routine closely (leash safety, building rules, feeding instructions, and medication if needed). For walks, I prioritize low-stress routes and give dogs time to sniff and feel comfortable. I always send clear updates with photos and potty breaks. For boarding, I keep a clean, cozy home environment and provide plenty of supervision and companionship. I host one dog at a time (unless they’re from the same family), so your dog gets my full attention. I’d love to meet you and your pup and make sure it’s a great fit!

Reviews
Samantha was incredibly communicative during her time spent with my cat , very friendly, open to feedback and super responsive. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again !
Samantha is the best! Cookie has some special needs and can get a little anxious but Samantha was very communicative and took amazing care of Cookie. Cookie looks like he had a super relaxing, stress-free vacation! Samantha was flexible and understanding when our flight home got delayed. We are so thankful to have met Samantha and Cookie is already looking forward to his next stay. Thank you!
Samantha took such great care of Bella! She is very responsive and provides the most detailed updates with so many pictures which I love! Bella had a great time during her stay.
Samantha gave great feedback on all of Strudel’s walks and he looked happy in the pictures that she sent. All of her comments were super positive and I appreciated her great communication. I hope Samantha will be available again for Strudel’s walks in the future.
