Pet care experience

I have a great understanding of the level of care, respect and trust that is necessary in our relationships with animals. I helped with animal rescue and training for a few years, which taught me so much about both pets and humans and what it takes to establish and maintain a loving, balanced relationship between the two. Since then I've helped others to increase the level of joy and understanding in their own relationship with their pet companions and am excited to expand from that through Rover. I also understand the importance of consistency and offering fun ways to stimulate and offer exercise to pets throughout the day. I feel many people don't get the full experience of the adventure that pet companionship can offer and I'd love to help more people understand that for themselves.

Sam was great with the animals (an older cat and an anxious dog). She had the added challenge of dealing with kidney medication for the cat and everything went well.

Sam was a life saver! She took good care of my cats and bunnies while I was gone and she was very kind to send me cute pics of my pets every time she came to check in on them. I will definitely book again in the future!!!

I am so happy I came across Sam's profile. Sam truly loves caring for pets and is very considerate and communicated with me while I was out of town. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again. My kitty loved her! Very happy with her work.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced-in yard and multiple nearby parks as well as close proximity to the Loop. I also have a mini van with seats that are stored in the floorboard so your canine bud will have plenty of space to lounge during travel. I do not feed pet companions outside of their intended food schedule, and it’s important to me that I offer them and uplifted, chill environment while I’m caring for them.

Information Sam J. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences. I would like to know in advance, if possible, what to expect with their experience/level of leash walking as well as excitement level upon arrival. Also, if feeding is involved, the amount and timing of it, if there is a schedule involved. Also if there are any particular skills/training goals to be honored while I'm with the pet, so I can add to the consistency of those processes.

A typical day

I love exploring the abundance of parks and dog parks that we have here in Tucson! I also enjoy savoring a sunny outdoor patio where pups and myself can relax and get in some people watching.

My schedule is largely flexible! I’m much more of a morning person so walks to start the day is a treasured option to offer your four-legged companion. I can also drop in, walk, or keep them company flexibly throughout the day.
