Caring & Reliable Pet Sitter!

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Sam and I'm a young professional (26 year old) living in East Austin- about 10 minutes from Mueller. I have a huge love for animals, so along with my full-time job, I really enjoy pet sitting on the side. :)

Samantha was an angel! She came through by chance last minute and took great care of our pups. We were appreciative of the flexibility, the twice daily pictures, and having someone so close be able to help out while we were gone. We look forward to being repeat customers! Thanks again, Samantha!

Samantha is a great choice for cat sitting. She watched my kitten for a few days while I was out of town. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her and we facetimed and talked about everything prior to house sitting. She sent lots of photo and video updates which was awesome! Overall great experience! I would definitely use her again and would recommend her to other pet owners.

Samantha was wonderful! She cat sat, lived in our house for almost a month. Our senior cat who needs complicated medication was well cared for and happy! Samantha took care of packages and plants as well and we returned to a well kept home.

I booked housesitting but Samantha didn’t stay at my house and did drop-ins. As a result, my dog had multiple accidents in the house. She did take him out twice a day like I had asked but I’m not sure if he went enough because he did end up pooping in the house once and from what I can tell, he peed at least four times. I could still see the spots on the floor but the cleaner I have probably left those when she tried to clean it up, though I could see sprinkles around the cleaning site. I appreciate her cleaning up after the pee but I saw that she had used a regular towel instead of paper towels. When I got back home, I found the towel still on the floor, as well as the poop.

I now have regular clients that I mostly sit for, however I do still take new clients when my schedule allows. I usually do a good job of keeping my Rover calendar up to date with my availability.

Information Samantha K. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know of any medications and anything you'd like me to pay special attention to. Also please let me know if your dog has any issues with other dogs or people if I take them on a walk or to a dog park!

A typical day

We can go on walks in your neighborhood and play out in the yard if you have one. If you'd like, I can also take your pup to a nearby park or to town lake! We'll definitely have lots of cuddles and indoor play time as well.

My Experience: I grew up with a Cavapoo as our family dog, did a lot of dog walking to pass the time at the start of the pandemic, and have been pet sitting for about 3 years now. I've completed over 60 different pet sittings and my experience ranges all kinds of dog breeds, ages, and cats as well.
