Highlights
Pet care experience
Online Professor Home F/T Lrg Yard
We moved to Cherry Valley 2 years ago. I am a dog mom of two sweet and passive poodle mix girls (no children). I work full-time online as a college professor so I am home with my dogs during the day. I have a doctorate in Teaching and Learning, MA in Educational Leadership, and a BA in English. I used to be a k-12 classroom teacher before teaching college online full-time. I am am passionate about animals. I have a large fenced yard. My neighborhood is quiet and pedestrian friendly. I love all dogs! I’m used to caring for dogs from 8 week old puppies to seniors. I have experience with insulin dependent pups and deaf dogs. I love chihuahuas to mastiffs. I promise your dog will get the very best love, attention, care, and endless fun!

Ratings and reviews
another great experience would 100% recommend

Samantha was absolutely amazing with my pup! I constantly got updates and pictures throughout the day! It was super easy to drop off and pick him up! I would 100% recommend!!!

Sam was great with our dogs and we really appreciated that there were some pup friends for them to play with too.


Samantha was amazing with our Sully! He had such a good time playing & we loved all the updates/pictures during his stay. We definitely would rebook when we’re back in the area.

First time using Samantha! She was so easy and nice to work with! Rizzo had a great time :) Thank you!!!

I almost don't want to leave a review because I don't want everyone finding out what an amazing dog caregiver Samantha is! I cannot rave enough about her communication, competency, and genuine love of animals. I had zero anxiety leaving my dog child with her. I'm actually excited to plan trips again knowing that Riesling has a safe and comfortable place to be.

Schedule
My dogs are used to me being home all day. I never leave the house for more than an hour or two, and that is typically on weekends or in the evening. My dogs are very secure and spoiled by my attention, and yours will be, too!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My two sweet female dogs are both spayed and are very friendly to other dogs and people. Prior to moving to IL, I fostered dogs and watched other animals on Rover.
Pets
A typical day
We will have tons of outdoor play, walks, indoor play and loads of my undivided attention and love. We have plenty of indoor and outdoor toys, large and small pet beds, and a lot of love to go around.
