Our agreements with Samantha was that she would be at our home with our dogs most of the time we were gone (other than her working 3 days/week and going home to make dinner for a family member every night). We were disappointed that Samantha left our house around 8:00am each day and returned around 6:00pm each night, leaving our dogs unattended all day long for nearly two weeks (we have a Ring doorbell that alerts us to people coming/going at our front door). She agreed to stay until 7:00-7:30pm on the last day we were gone, but in fact she left our house at 8:00am, returned for only one hour from 3:30-4:30pm, then was gone for the night. When I texted her she informed me she left “between 5:30 and 6:00(pm)”. We had agreed Samantha didn’t need to walk our dogs because the understanding was that she would be here to interact with them a lot, but the dogs were not walked AND she was gone all day nearly every day. When we got home our youngest dog was clearly very stressed and anxious. Samantha is a very pleasant woman but unfortunately we will not be using her services again.

Sam is a long time friend and someone I would trust with my fur babies in a second. Her love of dogs and other animals exceeds most. I swear she's more excited to see my dogs than she is to see me most of the time. (lol) I would recommend Samantha as a sitter, walker, boarder, anything. She has a lot of experience with animals and Rover. I know anyone will be happy and lucky they chose her for their fur children needs!
