I would describe myself as the fun aunt. We have the best time, get a few treats in but also learn some very important life lessons while at it. I prefer to watch the animals in the clients home. I feel it’s much more comfortable for the animal. We can always discuss this as well!

Information Samantha W. would like to know about your pet

Dogs and cats have personalities just like us! Please let me know any quirks or behaviors that will help me make this the best time for your animal and you.

A typical day

We will go on long walks and adventures. If they enjoy fetch, dog parks, swimming we can do that as well! Plenty of pets and cuddles will also be included. Whatever the animal likes, I like.

Pet care experience

I got my first dog 11 years ago. She was a stray puppy and I taught her everything from simple tricks to skiing safely with me in the mountains. It was the best 11 years of my life! I want to help other people give their dogs the best years of their life as well. I love all types of dogs and personalities. I’m looking forward to meeting your pup!

Sam did an outstanding job taking care of our two dogs, Missy and Nola. From the moment she arrived, we felt confident in her ability to look after our furry family members. She was punctual, responsible, and incredibly attentive to their needs. Missy and Nola were happy and well-cared for when we returned. We appreciated the regular updates and photos that put our minds at ease. Sam’s love for animals truly shines through in her work. We highly recommend her for anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter! Thank you, Sam! Best, Steve

Sam was an amazing sitter for my dog Charlie! The attention and care Sam provided were top-notch. She made sure Charlie had plenty of playtime and was always comfortable. I received cute photos and updates throughout Charlie's stay, which was reassuring. Charlie is currently taking medicine and Sam knew exactly how to administer Charlie's medication which is always a concern. This would be the third weekend we have hired Sam to watch Charlie and I will definitely be calling her for the next time we are out of town. I highly recommend Sam to any pet owner looking for a caring and dependable sitter!

I had Samantha watch both my little dog Rudy and my cat for 16 days. As most pet owners know it is stressful leaving town and trying to find someone you can trust that loves your pets as much as you do. Well, Samantha is that person. She did a fantastic job and was extremely responsible. It made our vacation that much more pleasurable. She sent us pictures all the time and really loved on our pets. I would recommend Samantha 100%. She is the best. We will always use her in the future. Our pets love her.
