Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Sam! I’ve been lovingly caring for dogs on Rover since 2018 and absolutely love what I do. I offer a safe, dog-friendly, kid-free home with a private yard and a park nearby. I’m experienced with all types of dogs—puppies, seniors, and special needs—and can administer medications if needed. I share my home with Joey, my 8-month-old Bernedoodle, a friendly, well-socialized “support dog for dogs” who gets along with everyone. *****Note*****: We may have other pups here during your dog’s stay—no more than 2 daycare and 2 boarding dogs at a time to ensure lots of personal attention. Your dog will be spoiled with love, walks, belly rubs, and plenty of care in a relaxed, homey environment. I follow your routines to help your pup feel right at home. Meet & Greets are welcome—ideally at my place so everyone feels comfortable! Got other animals not listed on Rover? I'm open to boarding them too—just send me a message! Looking forward to meeting your furry family member! With love, Sam 🐾

Sam was incredibly accommodating when I needed last-minute doggy daycare for Cedar. She was kind, communicative, and made the whole process easy. Cedar was happy and well cared for.

It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience with Samantha! She was super communicative the whole day and made sure our baby felt safe in her home. Will definitely book with Samantha in the future. Thank you!!

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.
