Pet care experience

Paramedic here for your pets needs

I have raised animals big and small since early childhood! I grew up with two cats, two dogs, and a rabbit. I was responsible for feeding, grooming, and training them since they were babies. I also have past work experience at a dog daycare/boarding facility that allowed me to take care of many different dog's needs!

Samara watched my pup while I was away on a trip for 15 days. She even offered to take Jezebelle early to make it easier for me to get to the airport which was very helpful. Samara sent picture throughout my dog's stay and was very quick to reply when I messaged to check up on her. Samara was very sweet with my pup and I felt she was very well taken care of. Would book with her again if I'm in the area.

Mickey loved staying with Samara, I truly appreciate her flexibility and being able to watch Mickey last minute. Can honestly say that I will be reaching back out to Samara when I need any help with my dog, he felt comfortable and right at home with her

Schedule

I am able to schedule myself at my job as needed, so I will work around my rover schedule! I don't work any shifts over 8 hours or more than 3 days a week if I am boarding, so your pet will never be alone for too long!

Safety, trust & environment

My home is the perfect place for your pet to get the one on one attention it deserves. I do not own another dog and my cat will be kept in a separate room in the house. I keep my home clean and organized so there will be no hazard for your pet. I have plenty of walking trails and parks nearby for your pet to get some exercise. As a paramedic I have gained knowledge of K9 first aid and will do whatever is needed for your pets safety!

Pets

A typical day

While dog sitting/ boarding your pet will get atleast 2-3 long walks a day. If you have a social dog, there is a great dog park in Erie where they can run around and play with other friendly dogs! If your dog does not get along with others, I also have a small fenced park in my apartment complex so they can get some excitement off leash!
