As the Founder of Husband and Wife Pet Sitting, Samantha brings a sophisticated level of medical expertise and scientific knowledge to the local pet care community. With a dual Bachelor’s degree in Biology and Chemistry, she approaches pet health with an analytical and deeply informed perspective.

Samantha’s passion for animals knows no bounds when it comes to species; her "gold standard" approach has been applied to everything from high-needs senior dogs and spirited felines to exotics, birds, and large livestock. Whether she is managing a multifaceted medical regimen for a domestic pet or checking on the welfare of farm animals, her deep understanding of physiology and behavior ensures every creature is safe, understood, and meticulously cared for. For Samantha, pet sitting is not just a job—it is the meaningful application of her life’s work in animal science, ensuring your pets receive professional-grade medical oversight in the comfort of their own home.
