Samantha is very responsive to our dogs needs when she visits him. In looking at the photos she takes of him, we can tell he enjoys her visits. We look forward to her next scheduled visits.

This is our second time working with Samantha, she works well with our furry family member and he enjoys her visits. We will continue to have Samantha whenever she is available to watch him.

We were very happy with our recent pet sitting experience. Sam gave us updates daily, the house was just as we left it, and she put up with a nosy neighbor! We would love to have her dog sit again.

5 star review for walking our anxious dog who looks fierce and can appear intimidating! I think Sookie appreciated her midday walk and treats!

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.
