Availability
While I do some freelancing work, pet sitting is my full-time profession, so my schedule is open and flexible. Feel free to reach out to discuss your scheduling needs with me. Some additional flexibility: my partner Danielle is also a part-time Rover sitter and we're often able to accommodate a shared booking for drop-ins if needed. While I will work to arrive within 15 minutes of the booking time, I ask that you allow for outside factors (traffic conditions, accidents, weather), in rare cases where that window might extend. Overnight sitting covers 12 hours from evening to morning, with 1 midday visit if needed. Rates are based off of my time with your pet per hour, pet care experience, Rover’s 20% sitter fee, self-employment taxes, travel time + gas, complimentary meet & greets, and complimentary key pick up/drop offs. While I charge the listed fare, if a booking involves extensive travel time or extended care, the rate may vary. I will always be upfront with this and will never charge more than I quote. Thank you for understanding!

About Sam L.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I know that every pet has a unique personality, and have no problem accommodating a nervous or shy type who needs time to adjust. On the flip side, I thrive with active and outgoing animals who need extra attention and playtime. I'd love to know more about your pet and their specific needs.
Information Sam L. would like to know about your pet
Some things that are helpful to know: Current vet info and emergency contact(s), medical needs, walk routine & favorite routes, potty routine, and training techniques. For house sitting, any off-limits rooms/furniture, and household details—thermostat, cleaning supplies, alarms & cameras, etc. I will make sure to ask any relevant follow-up questions.
A typical day
I will accommodate whatever your daily routine is, be it multiple walks, trips outside, irregular feeding times & portions, etc. Don’t be shy about specifics! It's always better to have thorough information so I can do the best job possible.

Pet care experience
I am a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, here to help you take care of your pets, whether it be for that next trip, a quick check-in while you're at work, or an ongoing booking. I'm now in my 4th year on Rover. I love getting to know animals with their various personalities and quirks, and tailoring my care to suit their needs. I've worked with hundreds of pet owners and dozens of dog and cat breeds of all sizes, from Shih Tzus to Saint Bernards (plus the occasional rabbits, reptiles, fish, chickens, etc.) I live in Bluff Heights with my former indoor/outdoor cat Pigeon, who's valiantly getting used to his new Catio and the traffic sounds of LA.
