If your life is filled with pets and/or kids, this is the place you wanna be! 

Hey there, I’m Samantha. Born and raised in the lovely and freezing cold Illinois.  I have been an animal lover my whole life. I'm a dog mom to 4 crazy dogs. Working with kids is also my passion. By day I'm a nanny for 2 different families. Both of my work families have 2 little ones. I have been with both families since the first was young, and it has been so amazing watching them both grow up. 

So while this page will mostly be about animals, don’t be surprised if kid stuff gets thrown in here as well! My ultimate dream, once I’m in my own house and ready is to foster kids as well. So hopefully one day, this page will also have plenty more kid stories in it. For years everyone has told me I should blog or make you tube videos about my crazy life, so now I'm finally getting to it.

Ever since I can remember I have been an animal lover. We got our first family dog, a Golden Retriever named Bailey, when I was 1. The house hasn't been dog free since then! Fast forward to now and 3 dogs later. When I was a junior in high school, we went to a pet expo, and learned more about fostering. We decide to jump right in. Let's just say, things never slowed down after that point. I'll give details about all our current dogs in the blog pages, so feel free to go check them out!
