True love for dogs!
Pet care experience
I've had dogs my entire life and have always loved them, from growing up with them to adopting 4 dogs of my own! Each dog has his or her own unique personality and I love to get to know them! What my dogs enjoy most are going for walks and playing tug of war with rope toys for physical play. They absolutely love belly rubs, and of course treats! But I'm excited to get to know your dog and find out what makes them happy! I have plenty of experience caring for dogs. As stated I have 4 babies of my own, and I regularly dog/house sit for friends and family when they have to travel. However, since I have recently moved and no longer have many friends/family in the area, this is the main reason for signing up with Rover!
Reviews
Sam is the best pet sitter I have ever had. My dogs light up every time they see him and know that they are in for lots of play time. My older pet requires medication and he has never missed a dosage. Would recommend him to anyone.
What seems like a long time ago my brother adopted a dog. Then saved another, and they have been a family ever since. He was and is very good with dogs and was very good with them considering they're big dogs who can get hyper. He is the main reason i was inspired to end up going through with saving a dog from the shelter. And seeing him with his dogs for so long helped me train mine to be so good! All dogs that i've ever seen love him and can't leave him alone! He would be great at this! I would say he is the most overqualified person without being some type of dog trainer.

Information Sam L. would like to know about your pet
Breed and age. Any health issues or concerns, general things to keep an eye out for. General tendencies, does he/she get along well with other dogs? People? Children? Biting history/Aggression? Allergies? Feeding Schedule and any special instructions.
A typical day
A typical day for my dogs is that they get walked twice per day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon. Depending on weather and temperature, they'll spend a few hours outside in the backyard. If I'm off work or have extra time they'll get an additional walk (my dogs love going on walks) or extra play time playing fetch, tug of war with rope toys, or just chasing each other around in the yard. I like walking in parks and greenbelts, or a residential area will do if those are not practical. Rope toys and fetch are big hits with my dogs and I enjoy playing tug of war with them. If the dog is sociable I enjoy going to the dog park. If I'm house sitting and watching your pups you can expect that they will receive several hours of attention and will not be left alone for very long. I do work full time, but most of my house sitting will be done on the weekends when I am free and can devote time to your pups. But even if I have to work, I have reasonable work hours where they can be walked and have playtime in the morning and afternoon, and likely even a walk and potty break on my lunch break. Rest assured your pet will not be ignored or neglected!
