Pet care experience

Reliable care by a true pet-lover!

I am a teacher and actor who absolutely adores animals! I have a cat of my own, an American Shorthair named Wednesday, as well as two family pets - a Westie named Max and a Persian named GinGin. Throughout high school and college, I’ve provided a variety of pet care in my neighborhood, walking dogs, caring for cats, and even feeding fish and lizards! I love getting to know everyone’s fur babies (and scale-y babies!) and would be honored to watch over your little guys! Each pet is so different and unique, but the one thing they all have in common is that they are wonderful friends. I can’t wait to meet your critters!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I’ve been a pet-sitter in my neighborhood since high school and have a wide variety of experience with cats and dogs. Each pet is so unique and special, and I love to learn their quirks and personalities! Whether they like active playtime or just some company, I love to spend time with them in any way they need. I pay close attention to detail when it comes to the instructions you give me. I have experience giving medication as needed, and I have had to bring a cat I was sitting to the vet before. I have a cat of my own, so I’m sure to care for your baby as if they were my own!

Samantha did a great job taking care of our cats. She sent us pictures every day and gave them lots of attention. Very thoughtful and attentive.

Samantha was great! I will definitely rebook in the future. They followed all directions, were communicative, and overall were amazing with my cat Zero.

Schedule

I currently set my own schedule as a substitute teacher, so I’m happy to schedule jobs around the visits you need for your pet! As I am an actor, I will sometimes have evening commitments if I’m in a show, which I will let you know the times for as we work out a visiting schedule :)

Samantha can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I need to know if they have any health conditions and medications they need to take. I’d also like to know if they tend to take the reigns during walks, since I’m small and can be pulled by big dogs if not prepared!
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.
