I am currently a student with a lot of free time. Dogs bring a lot of happiness to my life so there’s literally no better way to spend my free time, than spending it with dogs who need someone to be there for her/him while their owner is away.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very attentive and my overall goal is for your pet to feel safe, calm and at peace. If they have a routine they follow, I make sure that I don’t deviate from what they know.

Information Samantha A. would like to know about your pet

I have worked with dogs of all ages. If your dog has any special needs or dietary restrictions I will be happy to follow exact instructions. Additionally, please let me know if your dog has any behaviors or triggers

A typical day

I always try new and fun interactive ways to keep your dog mentally stimulated. I use puzzle toys and treat dispensing balls to keep them entertained. To tire them out, I’ll usually play with a ball, squeaky toy or rope. If your dog is up for it, I like to take them on long walks.

Pet care experience

I have 20+ years of experience taking care of animals. I have had all sorts of pets throughout my life and absolutely love spending time with them. I’ve learned how to care for them and give them the love and attention they require. Dogs and cats have always held a special place in my heart. Ive had all types of dogs from old to puppies, energetic to calm. Ive also cared for several cats during my time working for Rover. With the right mentality and energy, I can get along with any dog/cat. I also know basic commands

Samantha did an amazing job watching our two pups. She has the patience of a saint. Will definitely use her again in the future.

Samantha is patient with our pup & bonded with him very quickly. By the second time she visited, Cade was already looking forward to seeing her. She followed our instructions exactly and couldn’t be happier to have her on board.

Sam took great care of our dog MJ and also our cat Leona while we were away for 4 days. She also sent daily updates with pictures. Our MJ takes some time getting used to new people, so we really appreciated the patience and weekly walks leading up to the overnight stay to get to know and make MJ feel comfortable. Thanks again Sam!
