Highlights
Pet care experience
Trusted Pet Caregiver
I’ve always had animals around at home, through fostering, and from volunteering at our local shelter, so pet care is just part of my life. I’ve handled everything from goofy, high‑energy pups to shy cats who need a slow, gentle approach. My fiancée worked at the same shelter for years, so I picked up a ton of hands‑on tips from her too. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets like lots of cats with big personalities, and plenty of shelter dogs who just needed a confidence boost. I’m comfortable with shy pets, excited pets, nervous pets, and the ones who need a little extra patience. I’ve also given medication, done enrichment, and helped pets settle in when they’re unsure. Whether your pet wants couch cuddles, a walk, or even a silly dog birthday party (yes, we’ve actually done one), I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every pet like family.

Safety, trust & environment
I keep things calm and pet friendly with cozy spots, enrichment, and plenty of supervision. I’ve worked with all kinds of personalities like shy, energetic, nervous, or pets who need medication, and I always go at their pace. In your home, I follow your routine closely so your pet feels secure. In mine, I keep the environment relaxed and predictable so they can settle in easily. My goal is always the same. A stress‑free, loving experience where your pet feels safe.
Ratings and reviews
Amazing experience having Samira house and pet sit! My dogs loved her right away and I was able to travel knowing everything was well looked after! Samira sent regular updates and pictures. Communication was great. I could not have asked for a better experience and will hope to have Samira come again next time we need pet sitting!
Samira is wonderful with Max, he clearly bonded with her and was very well cared for during the week we were out of town.
Samira was great with Max!
We had such a great experience with Samira! She took amazing care of our three cats and kept us updated the whole time with lots of pictures, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She even went the extra mile to troubleshoot our Litter-Robot and gave it a good cleaning. You can tell she truly cares about the animals she’s taking care of. She was amazing, and we would definitely recommend her and use her again!
Samurai was very caring with all our animals. She provided love and enrichment while we were away. 10/10!
+ Samira was friendly and professional about her job. Jake was well taken care of... I liked that Samira kept in touch with us & shared her experiences & concerns with us. We were so impressed with Samira that we have asked her to take care of Jake when we take our next trip!

Schedule
I work from home Tuesday–Friday, 8am -8pm which actually makes it easy for me to give pets lots of company and attention throughout the day. I keep a steady routine with time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check‑ins. For house sitting, I do need a spot where I can plug into the home’s modem so I can work smoothly. I bring everything I need (cords, portable desk, equipment) and I have a two‑hour lunch break that gives me plenty of flexibility to drive over, set up, and get settled with your pets. Even while I’m taking calls, I’m still right there with them for cuddles, potty breaks, and keeping them on their usual schedule. My work setup never takes away from the care I give.

- Let me know anything important about your pet’s routine or personality. The little details help a lot. This includes meds, quirks, sensitivities, or anything that makes them feel more comfortable. I’m patient and used to working with pets who need extra understanding, and the more I know ahead of time, the smoother their stay will be.
