Experienced Dog Sitter!

Pet care experience

Dogs are the best! I have years of experience taking care of them and training them, and I love all sizes and breeds. Unfortunately, I don’t have a dog at the moment, but growing up I always had at least one. Having had dogs my entire life up until now makes me miss them, so I’m glad to have the opportunity to be a part of Rover now. In the past I’ve owned a Cocker Spaniel, a Shiba Inu, and a Rottweiler. I also have experience walking and sitting Golden Retrievers, Shitzus, Pomeranians, Chihuahuas, Huskies, all kinds of mixed breeds, etc. I love all dogs and can't wait to meet new ones :) If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.

Samantha watched our two french bulldogs over a long weekend while we were out of town. She was super responsive, and it was clear our boys were well taken care of. She stayed at our apartment with them and was super respectful of the spaceand cleaned up before she left.

Samantha was really great and easy to communicate with. We are out of town so there was a lot of juggling plans with housesitters, but she took it all with a great attitude. She took great care of our two loves including our newest who is super shy. We saw pictures of them snuggling after just one day! We’re so happy to have “met” Samantha and know we have someone we can trust with our dogs in the future.

Safety, trust & environment

I like to follow each dog’s schedule. I don’t mind adjusting to your schedule and rules. Typically dog owners send me a written “typical day” and that’s very helpful.

Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet

Any sort of triggers are helpful to know. If they have any spots they don’t like touched, basically anything that might make them anxious is helpful to know beforehand. Any history of biting or aggression is a must.

A typical day

Morning walks and breakfast, then some play time around noon either during (at a park) or after a walk. Later, dinner and a final walk. This really is on a case by case basis, it really depends on what each dog is used to.
