Highlights
Pet care experience
Herd It Hikes + Walks 🐕
Hello, I’m Sam! I offer pet care in the Kanab area of Utah! I’ve been petsitting and dog walking on and off for about 17 years and have experience with all sorts of animals. I’ve also been working in Dogtown at Best Friends for about a year and a half now. I have four herdy dogs of my own plus three cats and two horses- a full house. But there’s always room for a guest or two. I’m a big believer in doing what the animal likes best- whether that be hanging out sunbathing, watching tv on the couch, playing with toys, going for a walk or training for some treats. I’m familiar with all breeds, temperaments, sizes and energy levels. I can also give meds if needed and most other special requests. Traveling with your pets? As long as they're friendly, I don’t require a meet and greet! For boarding and daycare guests: I have a spare, cozy guest room set up for dog guests they can stay in, plus access to the rest of my house while I'm around. They will likely only interact with one of my dogs, but will have to be ok with cats. They will only see children if the kids are out in the yard. My yard is technically fenced in, but 3 of my dogs don’t follow the rules, so I’ll probably keep guests on a leash.

I care for your pets like they’re my own! I like to keep things fun, do what they like to do, and give them a positive experience.
Ratings and reviews
Samantha takes such amazing care of our pups and they always look forward to her visits 🥰🫶 Seriously so grateful for amazing caretakers here on River who genuinely love your pets like you do!
samantha is everything you hope a dog sitter is and more! extremely thorough, thoughtful, and sends you the cutest pics of your pets to let you know they’re safe and healthy with her. my two pups adore her and you weill too 🤍🤍🤍
Samantha was very professional and reliable. She took wonderful care of Dunkin' and I was not concerned at all about how loved and cared for he was. I would call on Sam again in a heartbeat.
Samantha was an amazing sitter for my 12 year old lab! She came by while my friends and I were hiking some longer hikes he can’t go on anymore. He was so happy to have her come by and walk/play with him! If you live in Kanab or are just passing through- give her a chance to hang with your pup! 10/10 would recommend! I’ll be using her next time I’m here for sure!
That is so funny you carried Milo 😊. Thank you Sam! We really appreciate your visit! We highly recommend Sam. We enjoyed meeting you yesterday and saw the dogs loved you immediately.
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.

Schedule
I’m a dog care specialist at Best Friends so I am pretty busy up there, but can stop in before or after work, as well as on my lunch break if needed! My days off are Tuesday and Wednesday, so I’m available anytime during those days and can even take your pup(s) out for a longer hike! Weather dependent, of course.
