50% Off for First Time Clients!

Sept Special: 50% off daycare for new clients! Message me about your special rate. Hi! I’m Sam. I have been fostering and volunteering for animal rescues for over a decade. Most of my petsitting and housesitting has been off of Rover; will be happy to provide references upon request. I am happy to assist with dog and cat sitting, as well as light housekeeping tasks while I"m at your house - tidying up, folding laundry, watering plants, bringing in mail, etc. (If needed) I have 15 years of experience fostering dogs, including seniors and special needs. My rescue and volunteer experience with Greenville Humane Society, Lucky Pup Rescue, Big Fluffy Dog Rescue, Carolina Loving Hound Rescue, Greenville Animal Care, Hounds of Grace, and Old Friends Senior Dogs has accustomed me to dogs from all walks of life.

This is my fifth time booking Sam as our dogsitter, and once again, she exceeded all expectations. While she may not have a ton of reviews on this platform, don’t let that fool you. Sam is a *gem* of a dogsitter. We later found out she mostly books through word of mouth, and now we understand why. From day one, she has been incredibly reliable, communicative, and, most importantly, amazing with our boy. It’s a relief knowing he is in caring, capable hands while we’re away. So happy to have found her here, 10/10 recommend booking her for your pup.

House Sitting • Jul 15, 2025

I was lucky to find Sam's name through a neighbor who has been using her for years. Sam is an amazing dog sitter. She was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. Lots of photos and videos during the stay. Highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for a responsible and loving sitter!

Dog Walking • Apr 15, 2021

Sam responded to my last minute dog walk request when I discovered my usual walker was unavailable today. She was very quick to reply and easy to communicate with. She was on time for the walk and didn’t have any issues following instructions to enter my apt. Based on the pictures she took of my smiling dog, she seems to be great with animals. My dog got a full mile walk, water and treats. She even left me a sweet note. I will definitely trust Sam again with my dog. Thank you!

I love to know your routine, your pup's likes and dislikes, and of course any allergies or special needs. Keeping you informed while your pups are in my care is a priority. I will communicate as much as you'd like - I send a lot of photos and videos while your angel is in my care, unless you prefer less communication.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
