Herd It Hikes & Pet Care Services
Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Sam, and I own Herd it Hikes- a pet care business that specializes in trail time! I’ve been petsitting and dog walking on and off for about 14 years now and decided to go full time in 2023. I have two dogs of my own, a Kelpie and a Cattle Dog Mix, that keep me on my toes and have taught me a lot about training and how dogs interact with each other. They’re too smart for their own good, so I’ve learned how to work their brains and keep them engaged. Which is something I like to do with clients dogs as well, especially out on hikes! I’m a big believer in doing what the dog(s) like best- whether that be hanging out sunbathing in the yard, playing tug or fetch, taking them for a hike or working their brain for some treats. I’m familiar with all breeds, temperaments, sizes and energy levels. I can also administer medications if needed and most other special requests.
Reviews
Samantha has done drop-ins a day in each of the last couple weeks when I had to spend long periods away from the house. It is so nice to have someone I can rely on to take care of the clan.
Samantha did a wonderful job dropping in several times while I was away for a very long day. She visited the times we agreed and did a few small unexpected things like thawed out some frozen nuggets and cleaned food containers to make my morning much smoother. I highly recommend that you consider Samantha when you need help.

A typical day
It really depends on your dog and what they enjoy! Training games, tug, fetch, sniffy walks, power walks or just hanging out in the grass enjoying the day.
