Cats and dogs are my love language.

Pet care experience

I have always had pets. From dogs, cats, and hamsters, to horses, goats, and tortoises — there have always been animals in my life. I have raised one cat and one dog and they are both so important to me. In the past, I have reliably checked up on my family member’s pets while they were away (including their fish!) I have even worked at a boarding facility, allowing me to successfully care for a number of cats and dogs at once. I am currently in grad school and teaching drawing lessons a few times a week, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet during the week. I am available to conduct drop-in visits for all pets and I am also available for dog-walking services for well-behaved pups! I know firsthand how nerve wracking it can be to leave a pet behind while on vacation or even just day to day. That’s why I take my responsibility as your pet sitter/dog walker very seriously. Because of my many years of experience with pets, I know what to watch out for and how to provide a safe and healthy environment for all animals. When coming and going from either my home or yours, I am always vigilant. On walks, I scan my surroundings and ensure that the path ahead is safe. At home, I pet-proof my house so that our furry friends can’t get into anything that can hurt them. I will always have your pet’s well-being in mind.

Samantha is the best! My dog, Shadow, loves her and she’s come through for us when we really needed someone to care for Shadow.

Samantha is very attentive to Shadow. She is patient and kind to him. She’s also super communicative about the walk and any needs that arise for Shadow. She’s the best!

Always loving and kind to my pup. He loves her and I’m at peace knowing he’s well taken care of.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my top priority. I will always do everything that I can to ensure all pets stay safe a healthy. This means I think a few steps ahead to anticipate whether or not to avoid certain situations, and I always remain aware of my surroundings.

Information Samantha Y. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know if your pet has any allergies or food sensitivities so that if I bring treats, I know they will be safe to eat. Additionally, please let me know if your pet has any behavioral quirks I should know about (i.e. doesn’t like other dogs). The more I know about your pet, the more customized care I can give them.

A typical day

I love playing with dogs. I know that a tired dog is a happy dog, so I will get as much energy out of your pup as they are willing to give. If they are more laid back, well, they’re in for plenty of scratches and cuddles!
