Dog LOVER taking care of your bff

Hi there! My name is Sami and I have years of hands-on experience with dogs. I worked at a dog boarding/daycare facility for four years, where I was responsible for walking, feeding, and caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Over the past 15 years, I’ve also raised and cared for my own dogs—including an Italian Greyhound, a full-sized Greyhound, and now two long-haired German Shepherds. These are family dogs and they live at my parents home in Michigan. There are no dogs residing at my apartment currently. I live with my fiancé, Nick, who is just as passionate about dogs as I am. We’ve both had dogs our whole lives and have been dog-sitting together for the past three years. When you book with us, your pup will be cared for by not just one, but two experienced and devoted dog lovers. We’re all about keeping dogs safe, happy, and healthy—and making sure they feel loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or feeding, we give each pet our full attention and care. I work from home, so I’m typically available during the week to watch your dog and am happy to accommodate your schedule whenever possible. Please feel free to check my calendar for availability and send a message if you have any questions! I’m responsible, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. Your pet will never be neglected or uncared for—I’ll always make sure they’re in the best hands. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup!

Sami took great care of Misu. She was flexible with timing and our dog was so excited to see her every morning. We would definitely use Sami again!

Sami was terrific. Took great care of our dog while we were out of town for 10+ days! Gave him his medication, sent photos and seemed to do a great job!

Sami was a great host! She followed all my care instructions and my dog looked very relaxed when I came to pick him up. I will definitely consider her services again in the future when I need them!

Safety, trust & environment

I’m responsible and attentive. Your pet will not be left alone for hours on end and I will show them the utmost care. I will never let anything bad happen to them when they are in my care. I take this job very seriously and I would love to care for your pet! I care for your dog the way I would want someone to care for mine.

A typical day

We will go on long walks and get fresh air. I would love to take your dog to dog parks (if you’d allow it), and cuddle up on the couch when they’re tired.

I would like to know about any habits they may have (i.e. running away, barking, etc). Just want to make sure I’m aware ahead of time!
