Super Sitter Sam!

About this sitter

Hi! My name is Samantha Kosloske and I am 26 years old. I previously worked as a teacher through AmeriCorps. My contract with them ended in May 2020. At this time, I was looking to change career paths but the beginning of the pandemic was not a great time to do so. Since then, I have been working as a nanny. It has been great but as the kids get older I am taking this opportunity to move to New York City! I am looking to explore New York City and different neighborhoods to make sure it is a great fit for me !

Why they want to house sit

I grew up with 2 dogs and three cats and ever since I left home for college, I have been seeking out pets every chance I get. I have been pet sitting as a side gig and love being able to play with and love on other peoples pets without taking on the full time responsibility. I also love exploring new neighborhoods and areas !

Their experience

I have been house and pet sitting on the side since I started college in 2014. I love all animals. I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I grew up with big dogs and therefore had a preference for them but I have come to learn that I love little dogs as well. I have cared for cats, dogs, fish, turtles, bunnies, chickens, and parakeets. I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages from puppy / kitten hood to geriatric animals where I have administered medication and am comfortable doing so. I have never cared for farm animals but I did goat yoga in 2021. It was the most intimate I have ever been with farm animals and I greatly enjoyed it.

What can they bring to the assignment

I have tons of references, both in Boulder (I did pet care work in college), in Denver and a few locally in NYC. Thank you for reading this long post. Looking forward to hearing from you!
