Furr Friend

I’m an animal lover at heart and have been helping care for dogs since I was little, at least 20 years and counting! I “dog-sat” throughout middle and high school for friends, family & neighbors. Happy to walk, play, feed, and then some. I’m seeking additional “work” that can also help me - I firmly believe that caring for animals is beneficial for mental and physical health! I’m not only caring for them, the furr friends are taking care of me too!

Samantha was fantastic! She handled both my senior dog and young cat with care and kept me updated continuously. My cat never comes out for strangers but it only took a couple hours of Samantha’s calm energy to allow him to feel comfortable enough to greet her. I definitely recommend Samantha for any pet needs you may have! She is honest and clear with you so you can feel confident your pets are being well cared for while you are gone! Thank you so much Samantha!

Samantha was great. She updated us daily with a note or cute picture. She was great to work with. We will 100% use her again.

Samantha did a fantastic job watching Max! I’m always anxious his first stay with a new sitter and she kept me in the loop with countless photos. My plans kept changing on pickup and drop off and she was extremely flexible. Max definitely seemed to enjoy himself and had lots of adventures.

Samantha was better than I could have imagined. One of my dogs developed a serious eye problem which she recognized as needing a vet right away. She not only got an appointment right away but then had to take the dog to a specialist a half an hour away the next day. She was a very compassionate and attentive dog sitter going beyond the call of duty. She left the house clean and with all the laundry done. She is superb!!

Let me know the norm - when/what they eat for treats (or meals if applicable), how often they expect treats, if they require any supplements such as calming treats/oils, etc., and typical behaviors of your dog (barking, aggressive, friendly, anxious, etc.)
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.
