A graduate student animal lover!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Sam. I love dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. They truly are apart of the family. I’ve had a yellow lab, an American fox hound mix, a mutt, a lab terrier mix, and currently a lab pit mix! Over the past several, I have dog sat for various people. From small dogs to big ones. It started back in 2013 just watching my best friends aunt’s dogs, but then she quickly recommended me to her friends. From there on out it was basically a side gig for me throughout college. (Talk about the best job ever!!) I recently volunteered at Pit Sisters for a bit. Those dogs were a bit more aggressive and they were saved from fighting rings and bad situations. But they recently have shut down. So I had a tiny bit of experience with them. As far as my schedule goes, I do work 9-5. But I’m available after 5 on the weekdays. I am also free anytime on the weekend! I look forward to hearing from you and your pets. Please reach out to me if you want to set up a meet and greet to see if we are a good match 😊 If you have any questions please reach out! P.s. I recently had my computer hard drive die on me. I know my pictures aren’t the best because I had lost all my files. I had to work with what I had.

Samantha was a great pet sitter! She played with our dogs every time she was there and made sure they were well taken care of. We would definitely use her again!

Samantha has been wonderful with my fur baby! Bella takes a while to warm up to new people but Samantha has no problem getting her to feel comfortable and go outside. She’s very easy to get in touch with & makes me feel like my pup is in good hands. Will be booking again!

Sam was so great. She stayed with my 11yo german shepherd for 2 nights. I came home to a clean house (no dirty dishes, sheets in laundry room, trash taken out) and happy pup. Also came home to a bowl full of clean water and an empty food bowl which is AWESOME because it means my dog actually ate, which she usually doesn't do if she's stressed. I have a motion detector doorbell, and based on all the notifications, I know she walked my dog as much as I would have, which is so appreciated!!

I have a fenced in backyard where my dog loves to run around. I also have a pool where he loves to swim. I currently do not offer dog sitting at my house due to safety concerns with the pool. We do not have our pool fenced yet.

No breed preferences! I like them all. Any special needs the dog may have is good to know. How they are with other dogs/people. Any certain diet etc.

A typical day

Depends on the location! But I love walking with dogs. Playing fetch or play with their toys. I love to give may pets! Possibly even go to a dog park.
