Safety, trust & environment
I’m happy to help with any special pet care needs, such as feeding special diets or grooming. Because I have experience working in an animal hospital, I can also help with administering some medications. I have experience with shy cats, dogs reactive to people or other animals, high-energy dogs, and other pet personalities. When pet-sitting or doing drop-ins, I also make sure to follow any rules or guidelines you have for your home. I’m happy to discuss how I can meet your pet’s needs.

Let me know if your dog has special needs or quirks. I’m able to accommodate most requests, and I always follow any guidelines you have for your pets and/or home!
A typical day
I love to take long walks and explore my beautiful corner of Uptown! I’m located two blocks from Chase park for quick walks and play time, and about a 20 minute walk to Welles park for longer walks. I’m also happy to just rest and cuddle with lower energy dogs!

Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Sammi and I’d love to take care of your pet 🦮🐈⬛. I have always had a passion for spending time with and taking care of animals. I dreamt of being a veterinarian for many years, which led me to work or volunteer with animals in a variety of settings. I have been taking care of my own pets since I was 12, and I have 3 years of professional animal care experience. Previously, I volunteered at a working dog training center and at a cat rescue. I also worked as a veterinary assistant at an animal hospital. As a pet-sitter/caregiver, I’m patient and attentive to your furry friend’s needs. Whether your pet is a bundle of energy or shy and reserved, I respect their boundaries and meet them where they’re at! Feel free to contact me to find out if I’d be a good fit for you and your pet! 😊🐾
Reviews
Sammi has watched my cat Cleo several times, and every time she has taken such good care of her! My cat is high needs given she is blind, but I never worry at all when she is with Sammi! Sammi loves pets and treats each visiting animal like her own! She is a kind, reliable, and trustworthy sitter who I would recommend to everyone! Sammi also sent me the cutest pictures of Cleo when I was away, which was very fun to see.
Samantha is an exceptionally reliable and trustworthy person, as well as pet caregiver. She has the ability to show diligence and care for all animals. Samantha cares for pets as if they were her own, and always is attuned to their needs.
I would trust Samantha with my fur babies any day. She is caring and attentive with my cats and dog- Not to mention punctual! Her experience working in a vet clinic lets me feel at ease knowing my pets are under her care. If you are looking for a trustworthy dog walker/pet sitter, I would highly recommend Samantha!
Samantha is a wonderful and caring pet sitter and dog walker. She is responsible and reliable and a kind and caring person. We have loved having her as have our pets. You cannot go wrong with Samantha!
