Hi! I'm Samantha. I'm a huge animal lover as I have 4 dogs, 3 cats, and a snake. In the past, I've owned turtles, fish, and bearded dragons. I've taken care of puppies, new borns in fact but I have only one experience in pet sitting and that was when my neighbor went out of town and left me to watch her cat and her chihuahua.
