Pet care experience
Your Pet’s Second Favorite Human
I’ve always been the person my family and friends went to and trusted to watch after their furry ones while they were away. I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am. I currently have five pets of my own: three cats and two dogs, and they truly mean everything to me. Because of them, I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. During my junior and senior years of high school, I attended Harkness BOCES for Animal Science, where I gained hands-on experience in grooming, safe handling and restraint, CPR, medication administration, and understanding animal behavior, along with many other essential skills. I’m currently continuing my education in animal health and behavior to build a career dedicated to caring for animals and being their voice. I’m comfortable administering medications as needed and have experience working with pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. Whether your pet needs extra patience, playtime, or specialized care, I’m here to provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I take the safety and boundaries of the pets and clients very seriously. I will follow any safety procedures the owner may have for me. Whether that may be crating their animal at night time, keeping them close on their leash during walks, watching them play in the backyard, anything that is expected will be done.
Ratings and reviews
Once again Samara did an awesome job taking care of our 4 fur babies! They love her! She does a great job communicating with us, sends us pictures, and cleaned up for us, even though she didn’t have to. Thank you Samara!
Just finished a 2 week house-sitting booking with Samara for our cat and our 2 (very) elderly dogs. We always use Samara for these long vacation trips as she does a great job of taking care of the animals, especially as they require a lot of care as they are getting older, along with keeping the house in tip top shape.
Always feel very comfortable leaving Samara stay at our house to take care of our cat and elderly dog when we are going away.
Samara was really great with our dog. I would highly recommend her. She also sent lots of updates and photos which helped me feel connected and secure.
Samara was very good with benny and keeping nala company!! She sent pictures of my babies while we were away and kept us informed about how they were doing ! We will definitely be using her services again !! :)
Samara did a great job watching all our pets while we were away on a long trip! She was super communicative and sent lots of pics! Our pets were in great hands!

Schedule
I'm currently a full-time student so my schedule is very flexible and I'm more than willing to easily fit pet care into my weekly routine.
