Pet care experience

In my professional life, I have worked as a veterinary assistant. Otherwise, I am a life-time dog owner, from fox hounds, to pit bulls, to chihuahua's. I am used to rambunctious pups of all ages, sizes, and levels of training. I am experienced with training, so I will never be caught off guard. I'll love and take care of your furry family as if it were my own. I'm perfectly fine with odd hours, or normal ones. I am willing to play fetch or Tug of war for hours as well as going for jogs, or whatever they may need. I have yet to meet a dog that I haven't gotten along well with, and I'm sure your pet will be no exception! should an emergency arise, I am also (unfortunately) familiar with first aid and will make sure your pup is safe.

Samantha was AMAZING! She house sat our 2 dogs along with my mother’s 16 year old dog which has a lot of medical issues. She was so wonderful with keeping us updated. She was very attentive and understanding of all the dogs needs and requirements. We will definitely be booking her again.

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.
