Information Samantha J. would like to know about your pet

Does your pet have an allergy to any foods or treats? If they do have allergies, what specifically triggers their reaction. Any commands I would need to know for walks or just for daily use. Any aggression towards other pet/people. Favorite toys, treats, belly rubs or head scratches? I do not have breed preferences.

A typical day

I love walking around neighborhoods and taking in all the different sites. We can play ball or just run around your backyard to get some exercise in.

Licensed Vet Tech loves all animals

Pet care experience

I have been a Licensed Veterinary Technician since 2003. I have worked with dogs, cats, rabbits, all reptiles, birds, guinea pigs and more. Besides working in the veterinary hospital, I have done pet sitting and drop in visits for friends and family for years as well worked in daycare and boarding facilities. I am currently studying for my Fear Free Certification. I have loved all animals since I could walk. I treat each one as if they were my own. I am proficient in any type of medication that may need given, as well as SQ fluids. During visits I can grab your mail, water plants and bath your pet as needed. I can care for any type of pet you have (except Tarantulas) as well as administer medications to other types of pets. I am available before and after work each day and almost every weekend. I would love to give your pets the extra care and attention they may need.

Samantha took great care of my two old lady cats. I felt very comfortable leaving them with her and she did a great job, regularly sending pictures and reports. I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Thank you so much Samantha.

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.
