Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, starting with my first poodle, which ignited my love for them. After she passed away at 16 y/o I found myself wanting to help others care for their pets. I’ll provide a safe place for them while you’re away, and also give them love, care, play time and walks. -Please bring anything that will make your pet comfortable such as beds, favorite toys and treats. -I do not conduct meet and greets in my home.

Samantha was great with my baby this weekend! She sent pictures and videos of Lola throughout the whole weekend and Lola seemed to very comfortable and happy in every single one. She also kept up with giving Lola her daily medication and Samantha’s communication was 10/10. Thank you so much Samantha, I am so glad to have found a trustworthy dog sitter. See you again, soon!

This was my first time using Rover. It was also the first time leaving my dogs with someone they did not know. I was nervous about the whole thing but Samantha put my mind at ease. She was absolutely amazing with my dogs. She sent updates and pictures so that I knew how they were doing. I would definitely recommend her and use her again.

Fast, friendly communication and great flexibility with drop-off and pickup times. We felt Bender was in caring, competent hands during her stay. Would definitely book 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.
