Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to stick the the routine that the owners have already set. I also prefer to do a meet and greet before any over night pet sitting to ensure I am the best fit for your pet and your pets needs. I believe that pets are family and should be treated as such.

Information Samantha B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you pet has any special needs or quirks that they need to be accomidated. I know for my dogs you need to give them a treat when first coming into the house if they do not know you. My shepherd didn't like other dogs so I needed to walk him on the other side of the road when there were other dogs present. Cats also tend to have some interesting quirks so please dont be afraid to let me know!

A typical day

I love taking dogs on Sniff Walks and hikes where they get to smell everything they could possibly want to, I find this to be more stimulating then a traditional walk. I do not take dogs to dog parks where there are unfamiliar dogs ( I have seen to many injuries' working in Emergency from dog parks) I also love to do short training sessions for new tricks or snuffle matts for additional stimulation.

Pet care experience

Hello, I am 33 years old and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I used to work at an Emergency OverNight Hospital for small animals (dogs and cats) I specialize in walking reactive aggressive dogs (I have a GSD that does not like other dogs) as well as escape artist dogs. I've had numerous different breeds, from hound dogs to huskies, so I am used to all temperaments. I love animals and have a lot of patience when it comes to animals. I don't mind walking in the rain and I always carry an extra harness, leash, and freeze dried lamb treats! I believe dogs are more then just family and deserve to be treated like it. I believe pets do better when watched inside of their own home, rather then going to a strangers or being boarded, I work from home so I will never leave your pet alone for more then an hour at a time, ensuring less crate time and a better balance for your pet.

Samantha watched our fur babies for five nights - we had piece of mind that our babies were taken care of and loved while we were away.

Samantha couldn't have done a better job. She stayed at our house 9 nights/10 days and took care of our klan of animals. Our dog was so spoiled, he was sorry to see Sam go. Highly recommended and will use her for future events.

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.
