About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats and other pets since 1986. Love, trust, patience and high respect with animals are my #1 priority! I have volunteered with Animal Protective League as well as adopted cats from there. I am pretty much a person who takes home a stray animal who needs a home. My family has taken in 20 cats in the last 25 years that were strays on the street and kept them their whole lives. We have owned, to this date, 14 dogs dating as far back as when I was a toddler. Trust is everything and you can be rest assured that your pets will be lovingly cared for while you enjoy time away! Animals are my passion and I look forward to meeting yours! I am currently a stay-at-home mom. I own 11 cats. I am available for long-term and short-term periods. I am flexible with schedules and times and days depend on the client’s needs as well as pet needs. Currently, I am available for walking dogs, watching cats, as well as checking in and feeding animals at the client’s house during the client’s absence. Please contact me for further details and a custom schedule! Currently not providing pet care in my home. Pet care will be provided in the client’s home. When pet daycare services become available in my home, it will be announced!
“Samantha is amazing!!! She is responsive and great with Carter on walks. He comes home tired and happy!!! I have to say that my boy really looks forward to the walks with his new bestie. Samantha, I appreciate you!!”
About: I’ve worked at a dog daycare/ kennel for a few months but then left because I became a physical therapist assistant. I absolutely love dogs, but not ready for my own right now financially so I figured I could take care and spoil other peoples dogs while I wait until I’m ready!! I’ve had my childhood dog for 16 amazing years and I have dog sat for a few people already! I will watch my sisters dogs when needed which she has a Newfoundland (who is obsessed with me) and a chihuahua. I have dog sat for my boss before as well. Your dog will be in great hands with me and will get lots of playtime and snuggles!! I am usually free on the weekends only, since I do work an 8-5 job, so the week days do not work the best overall for boarding or dog daycare. but if you need someone to walk your dog after 5 or a drop in visit during the week on my lunch breaks and after 5 as well, I am able to do that! My apartment has a fenced in area for dogs to play and roam. My apartment complex is very dog friendly and has a good neighborhood to go on a walks with your dog. Dogs are allowed on my furniture and in the bed for bedtime snuggles!!
About: I have 3 German shepherds, and I know how much care goes into making sure they are well-fed, trained, and taken care of. Your pets are family, and I would treat them as though they were my own. I also am a runner, and I run with my own dogs - up to 3 at a time (size and temperament dependent). If you have a dog who loves to run (or who needs to), I would love to have them join the crew. I also do graphic design work specifically for people and their animals. Happy to produce some pictures for you for an additional fee! I generally can do morning and PM visits for the pets! My schedule is NOT a 9-5, but I work around what I need to. Spending time with the pets is my favorite work I do! I treat every animal as if they were my own. That means lots of play time, attention, and overall just good fun. That being said, if you have house rules, then we will follow them accordingly.
About: I have taken care of all different animals since I was born. Many family members and friends have trusted me with their animals to take care of while they were away or for potty breaks. I are currently making my own work schedules so I am free one-hundred percent of the time to play and take care of your animals! I would make sure to follow any instructions that were told or left for your animals, safety is number one. Other than that we will play and do whatever we can for a good day!
About: My whole life I have always preferred animals over humans so as an adult my goal has been to turn it into my profession. I have cared for all kinds of animals from bugs to sheep, the least being livestock but i would love to learn more and better my skills in every way I can. With animals I am always down for whatever can or will come my way. In the most recent years I have been doing a lot of work with the pups that are a little extra spicy✨ after finding my own dog in a corn field and her ending up with reactivity and aggression, it really opened my mind to not just be a dog lover but someone who understands dog behavior to be able to keep them happy☺️ Unless I am out of town(rarely happens) I can almost always make it work! Even if it’s adding an xtra visit to make sure your baby gets everything they need🫶🏻 I care for every animal like I would my own babies. I like to keep things as close to normal for them as possible so never feel like you are telling me too much!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
