Safety, trust & environment

I watch pets based on how the family would care for their own pets, and what they prefer! I feel comfortable with crating, as well as drop-ins for pets who roam free.

Information Samantha K. would like to know about your pet

I really like to know what energy level your dog is on average. I can provide playtime or more relaxing time with dogs, depending on their needs. Knowing how your dog handles new scenarios and encounters with other dogs can be super helpful for me to know in advance of walks. Any health information about your pet is beneficial for me to know, as well.

A typical day

I enjoy playing fetch, playing tug, and taking long walks with active dogs! I also have experience with practicing walking with puppies and getting them used to a leash!

Caring pet sitter who loves animals

Pet care experience

I have an education background and have been watching animals for several years. I have been dog walking with Rover for over 4 years now, and have previous experience working for a small-town dog walking company. I have experience watching dogs, going for regular and occasional walks, and doing regular drop-ins! I have experience with the following breeds: GSD, Labrador, pitbull, Doberman, terriers, Poodle, Golden Retriever, Basset Hound, Chow Chow, Cocker Spaniel, Shih Tzu, Bernese Mountain Dog, Bichon Frise, Corgi, French Bulldog, and all mixed of all kinds! I have experience with dogs ages 6 months to 16 years, and feel comfortable with all activity levels.

Sam took care of our boys better than we could have asked for. She was flexible with their schedule and attentive to their needs, which completely put our minds at ease while we were away. An absolute blessing. We, without question, recommend her to anyone in need of care for their pets.

This couldn’t have gone any better for a first visit. Our boys were happy to see Sam and she treated them like her own. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing someone they can trust to look after their fur babies.

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.
