Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets with respect and attentiveness. I understand that it can be strange for pets to have a new person in the house. And, so, I arrive with a soft energy and respect for their space to get to know me.

Information Samantha H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the social habits dogs have around other dogs, little critters, adults, and children. Also any specifics that would give the dog anxiety or stress when the owner is away.

A typical day

If the dogs are up for it, it’s always fun bringing them to the climbing areas. Otherwise, we will go for long walks at least two times a day, snuggle and explore new neighborhoods.

Pet care experience

I have been lucky enough to be surrounded by dogs since childhood; growing up with a Toy Poodle and later adopting brother and sister pups who are a mix of everything. My love of dogs began as a young girl when I studied and memorized dog breeds and later play pretended them for my family. Although my love isn't as expressive today, the passion is still strong. I have been dog sitting, through Rover, since 2016 and my love for dogs have only grown. Some relevant skills I have for dog sitting is being a good, kind and calm person. A dogs' intuition is incredible. I also love hiking, reading at parks and exploring quieter areas near the city.

Samantha took amazing care of our two pups, we were very thankful to have updates through out our trip. Our younger pup went on multiple walks and our older boy got lots of love.

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.
