Samantha

Hi my name I Samantha or Sammie for short, I’m a 24 year old female with a life time of experience looking after pets. From a baby to now I have always had a house full of animas as well as when I was young frequently staying on a farm riding horses and looking after all the farm animals. 

I do have a police check which I can provide when we meet Pawshakes police check is not working currently there for I cannot get one through them just ask if you would like me to provide this.

I have also had experience with snakes and lizards. I do not have my reptile licence yet but will be obtaining soon as my partner wants a snake. 

I am always looking to learn more about all sorts of animals as they are all so interesting, I am currently in socialisation training and obedience training with my pup which is teaching me so many new skills that will help me better understand your pup and what it is they are trying to tell me as well as what to do in certain situations. 

As you will see in my photos I have a baby girl who is my little helper and is already obsessed with all animals as you can probably tell by her face in the photos not to mention her second word was puppy! I’m a stay at home mum with full availability and I have not had a job that I have not been able to manage with having my daughter with me whether it is over night stays, dog walking, drop in visits or having animals stay with us. 

I am obviously very weary about mixing animals with a baby and if I find for what ever reason the two should not mix I get my partner to look after my baby while I complete the job. I appreciate all my clients for helping me to do what I love while also getting to stay home with my baby and not having to go back to work while she is so young. 

We have a house with lots of space in the back yard and high fences. In our care we have two beautiful dogs, Skylar our white with dark spots cattle dog who is currently in socialisation and obedience training not just for her but for my knowledge as well and Jax our brindle blue staffy who we rescued from the pound almost 2 years ago now. 

We also have two beautiful budgies and two guinae pigs that are all rescues as well. I see all of my pets as if they are my children and even I get worried about leaving my fur babies with strangers which is why I will do everything in my power to make you and your fur baby as comfortable as possible during the time they are under my care.
