Pet care experience

Your pet’s are my care!

I have been in the pet care industry since 2020. I started at Petsmart’s Petshotel where I have overseen hundreds of dogs and cats both during the day and overnight. I have also worked at Holiday House Pet Resort and Furst Steps as a dog daycare attendant as well as a kennel attendant. I now work reception at a veterinary hospital. Making sure that pets in my care are comfortable, safe and happy is my specialty!

My dog's immediately liked Sam when she first came to meet them! The pictures and videos she sent while we were away showed me just how happy and comfortable they were with her. And it made me feel better to know they were being well loved while I was gone. It's not often I leave my dog behind, but if I had to do again I would absolutely rebook with Sam!! Thank you!

Sam was great with Grizzly and Dot! She took care of them and our home as she would her own. If oyu want a caring, reliable, and awesome person to take care of your pet, Sam is the one!

Sam is always attentive to Jetson and sends us lots of updates and pictures. He is always calm when I get home, which tells me he really likes Sam and she takes great care of him

DO NOT EVER BOOK WITH THIS PERSON. I booked a 2 hour house sitting appointment with Sam. I texted her about it the night before, prior to sending the booking request and paying. She agreed to come from 11am to 1pm for my dog who just had stenotic nares surgery 2 weeks ago and can’t return to daycare yet while I work. I have Ring doorbell cameras which show Sam staying at my house for ABOUT 30 minutes total. She then proceeds to send me pictures of my dog AFTER she had already left my house (as if she was still there watching him). She then proceeds to tell me she’s sorry she was “running late for work” (which makes no sense being that I confirmed the visit with her multiple times and she came late/left over an hour early. Sam has came late before but I let it go because she was good with my dog. But never again. My dog has now basically been alone all day while I’ve been at work. Terrible sitter do not book

Sam did a great job of caring for our dog and cat. We received regular communication and photos. She was punctual and responsive. Will be seeking her assistance again.
