Here to care for small(ish) dogs!

Pet care experience

I love dogs! Their joy and love is infectious, and being around pups makes me happier. I have Rovered for several years in both Seattle and SLC and I have sat and walked dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities and fitness levels. It has been incredible. Now, I am happily available to dog sit your small-medium sized dog at my home. I will consider large dogs with mellow/non-dominant personalities as well. My dog Hen (20 lbs. Shih-Poodle) will be present for play and companionship during your dog's stay, so unfortunately I cannot accept any anti-social pups. We also have 2 cats, so any dogs with cat aggression need not apply. One of these cats is spicy in his personality, and has been known to put dogs back in their place when they get too close, ha! We do have a variety of pet gates in place so that everyone stays safe. For now, I am limiting my services to daycare and walks. I will offer boarding services to previous clients. Generally for our home for sleepovers, we are looking for a pup who is crate trained (for evening sleeping) and a pup who loves to play, while also enjoying the couch :).

Samantha was amazing with Roux. Easy to communicate with and flexible for me during a chaotic day. Would highly highly recommend. Will be using her services no doubt in the future!

Samantha was a great sitter for my dog Romeo! She gave daily updates on how he was doing and I could tell she cared a lot. I’d definitely recommend her as a sitter and am hoping she’s available next time I’m out of town!

I have ample access to great dog friendly outdoor space with my backyard. My dog Hen is very playful with puppies and dogs near his size, and will provide many hours of fun, in addition to walks and toy time. If I need to leave the home, all dogs will be kept in separate rooms and they will not be unmonitored together at any time. I provide 2 walks per day, tons of access to toys, and plenty of couch time. It will be a vacation for your pup!

Information Samantha K. would like to know about your pet

How your dog has handled interactions with strangers (human and dogs); whether your dog is crate trained (only needed for overnight stays); also whether your dog has any history of defensiveness or being territorial, particularly with food or their sleeping situation.

A typical day

If staying with us for doggy daycare, I offer both a morning and late afternoon walk. Your dog will have access to my fenced backyard through our the day, and will be monitored. We have plenty of toys as well and are able to offer a "Greenie" dental treat if appropriate/wanted!
