Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet's happiness is my priority
Hello! My name is Sam and I grew up on a dairy farm in Grey Bruce. Living on the farm I was always interacting with our cows/calves and barn cats, and cared for couple bunnies when I was little. We had an outdoor farm dog named Shadow who quickly weaselled his way into the house where he eventually retired. We also ended up taking in a barn cat to the house as she was lost from her litter less than a week old. Almost 8 years later and she’s still zooming around the house. Experiences - Farm animals - Volunteered at the local animal shelter in high school - caring for both dogs and cats - 2 family, medium sized dogs and 1 cat - Dog (small) sitter for my roommate while she was on her 12 hour shifts - Walking other friends dogs - all sized dogs - Frequently interact with family and friends cats sometimes my main purpose of visiting them :) I have loved animals ever since I was a kid. Creating that special bond with them is so wonderful and memorable. Living away from home, I still want to foster a connection with animals. I know being away from your pets can be really difficult. That's why I will maintain constant communication with you and give you updates or photos of your adorable pet whenever you wish. Pets deserve all the love and attention in the world, I'm hoping I can be a small part in that for your special pet.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I will keep open communication with you and follow any and all instructions you may provide. I love finding a local park or trail to bring your pet to, to get away from the noise and danger of traffic. I will treat you, your pet, your house and property with the same high standards of respect as my own. Your home will look the same as you left it but with your pet will be happily satisfied with their care. If you have any hesitations or questions please feel free to reach out, I’d be happy to answer them all.
Ratings and reviews
Samantha has been walking my dog the past 8 months and has been wonderful. She is reliable and attentive to Barts needs and routine. She has been someone I can trust and rely on when I need help with Bartley. Thank you so much for everything you do.
Samantha is a totally responsible dependable person, and from the photographs it looked like Dolly Nefertiti, my cat, was falling in love with her given those googly eyes...which she does not do for everyone. Thank you Samantha.
It was our first time using the app, Samantha’s profile got our attention. We contacted her and she was really helpful since the beginning, very communicative and polite. She was on time for the appointment, kept us posted with updates during her whole stay with Forest(our dog), made sure all of Forest’s needs were met and left our home as tidy as when we left. Forest can be shy during walks with strangers but it went real good with Samantha, overall she did a great job and we will definitely keep her in mind for whenever we need a sitter or walker.
I’ve known Sam for many years and as an overprotective pet parent and a pet professional myself, she is one of the few people I trust to walk my dogs. She’s also one of the few people that my Nervous Nellie of a dog has warmed up to and remains warm to every time we see her! I’d definitely recommend her services!
