Highlights
Pet care experience
Work-from-home dog and animal lover
I have always loved dogs, and recently I have expounded my knowledge to receive an animal first aid certification as well as leaning into learning the psychology of their behaviors and what is safe for dogs in all life stages and learning levels. I uphold proper discipline and instill or continue obedience training as well.
Cat care experience
Samantha also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Ratings and reviews
Samantha was great! You could tell she really cares, she let our dog sleep in her bed during a bad thunderstorm. My dog Beans had a great time and came home tired and well taken care of! I would definitely book with Samantha again!!
We left our dog with Samantha for 2 weeks. Our poor little guy had an ear infection before dropped him off and Samantha took such such good care of him and game him his medicine timely. She’s very responsive and it’s clear that her and our dog created a bond by the time we got back. We couldn’t be happier. Will definitely turn to her again in the future.
This was my second time asking Sam to care for Hero. I have full confidence that she takes very good care of him (he told me how much he enjoyed it). The booking was originally only for three nights, but my flight was cancelled and rebooked for the next day, and Sam did not hesitate to accommodate the situation and keep him for another night. Thanks Sam!!!
Samantha took such wonderful care of our Bertie girl while we were away! She kept us updated with some pictures & videos and Bertie came home very tired & happy! We will definitely use her again! 😄
Slugger stayed with Samantha for the weekend. She sent us pictures and updates everyday. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times which is great. Slugger has so much fun and loves the company of the other dogs. We will definitely be using Samantha again in the future.
As usual Sam took great care of our baby!! I can’t thank her and Jay enough - will definitely continue to rebook! Thanks girl!!!

Schedule
I work remotely, so I am home all day, however I do need to be by my computer for calls and meetings. I am around the dogs all day, but I do not do pick ups or drop offs during the hours between 8-5. I live with my fiance who owns his own business and has very flexible hours, so it is possible to arrange for meetings during regular working hours as he can be available.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We love walks, or playing in our fenced in area of our yard. The dogs have free roam of the house, except the basement where the cat litter is located, as well as our bedroom (for the most part that is inaccessible, but we definitely allow canine company sometimes :). No restrictions on furniture, but we can enforce such restrictions if an owner has them in place at home. We are having a full cedar fence installed on our property in mid January which will replace our wire pen. Our neighborhood is very quiet and friendly, there is virtually no outside noise where we live, making it nice for senior dogs or skittish personalities. We welcome all friendly dogs here, and we always do everything we can to keep training principles in place and still have fun in a safe and controlled space.
