About: I've grown up with dogs all my life! I've been responsible for walking, feeding, petting, and loving multiple family dogs. I know how to be patient with a dog and react based on the dog's comfort level. I work remote so my schedule is extremely flexible. I can be anywhere at anytime! Let me know what your pet needs and I'll be happy to accommodate them and you :) This will depend mostly on the owner's needs, but I will have eyes on your pet at all times to make sure they're safe and sound. I make sure to listen to an animals queues.
About: Hello, I'm Samantha, a devoted animal enthusiast with a lifelong love for dogs and a passion for fostering kittens and adult cats. As I navigate the demanding journey of NP school, I find solace and joy in caring for furry companions. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to your pet's needs, whether it's dog walking, house sitting, or providing tender care for your cherished pets. Let me be the caring companion your pets deserve! I am currently enrolled as a full time student at Thomas Jefferson University, and have an occasionally flexible schedule. I am looking for a better study break than scrolling, and to get out of the house and have a change of scenery. What better way than by getting to spend time with a new furry friend! I prioritize providing a cozy and familiar environment for your fur baby by preferring to care for them in my own home. However, I am also open to accommodating hypoallergenic dogs. With many years of pet care experience and a lifetime of having pets, I ensure a loving and attentive atmosphere, tailoring my services to meet the unique needs of your cherished companions. Whether it's creating a home away from home or making adjustments for hypoallergenic pups, rest assured that your pets will receive dedicated and personalized care.

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life including watching my sister’s older dog for her. I also have checked on neighbor’s dogs growing up & have always loved spending time with dogs. I work full time remotely so I am looking for a reason to get outside and walk during the day. My schedule is very flexible & I would be willing to commit to a consistent schedule if that is helpful. I have a large home and live by several parks that I can take the dog to. I have a cat, so ideally the dog would have experience around a cat.
