Right now, this is what we are doing full time, so it's really based on scheduling for that month/week between my own home, especially having 6 animals of our own, but it still leaves us with plenty of free time! This usually averages to be like a 45-55hr/wk job for me, with Sam covering whatever I'm unable to.

Safety, trust & environment

We thrive on instruction, especially if you're looking for peace of mind while away from your lil furry friends! I always try and plan with the owners to have a meet n greet before hand, to be sure everyone gets along. Then, if that went well, we can proceed with scheduling and planning a second visit to talk about home/care instructions in further depth (trash day,parking if it's overnights, various little things of that nature). From there, it's all about the pets! We love the lil guys, and prioritize them and the space we're in with them during their care the entire time you're away!

Information Scott & Samantha H. would like to know about your pet

We are both really flexible when it comes to special care instructions, really my only ask with that is just clear straightforward information as to what your furry friend(s) need on a daily basis! We both have experience and have no issue with administrating medication in any form, including injectable if needed in rare cases.

A typical day

Between the two of us, we seem to be always exercising when we get free time to do so, and when the weather permits, we both love to go out on walks during the day! If they have any favorite toys, I'm sure they'll let us know quickly, and we'll be sure to give them plenty of time to play!

Pet care experience

I've spent most of my life in care of animals, whether that was at home or the local strays, but the last 10 years especially I've found a passion for caring for animals. We (Sam, pictured above) have been boarding together for over a year now, her having almost 4 years of experience doing this nearly full time. We've been lucky enough to care for many different breeds of dogs, cats, and even reptiles through this time, handling the special needs cases too!! WE LOVE what we do, and have no issue with more complicated lil buddies too! It's always a pleasure to get the experience with each of these unique lil friends!

Scott and Samantha are wonderful and cared for my 7 month old pup like she was their own! I was nervous about having to leave Corvi for a business trip since she is still so young, but they were very communicative and sent a ton of updates and pictures. I came home to a very happy and tired pup! Will DEFINITELY use them again and highly recommend!

Scott and Sam did a fantastic job watching our fur babies. We got texts and photos while we were gone. I would recommend them to anyone!

Scott and Samantha are our go to sitters for our Italian Greyhound, Quincy! We have used them multiple times, and always come home to a clean house and a very happy dog. Quincy has pretty bad separation anxiety, but Scott and Samantha give him extra attention, care, and snuggles. We highly recommend them to help with any of your pets’ needs!
