Pet care experience

flexible, easygoing, and fun!

I’ve had dogs and cats of all sizes my whole life, though I’ve owned my personal dog for less than a year. For years I’ve been the go-to friend and family member to watch dogs and cats and I love it! My family bred bulldogs growing up so I have experience with the youngest of puppies to old friends in their senior years! I’ve never met an animal that I didn’t love!!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a spacious, open-concept apartment with a semi-private courtyard. I own gates for a play-pen as well as a crate if I ever need to separate dogs from one another!

Sam has watched my dog Blair multiple times. She always makes sure Blair gets out for walks and makes sure to send me updates throughout the day. Blair loves when she gets to stay with Sam while I’m away. Sam is the best person to watch your dogs!

Sam has taken care of my pets several times while I’ve been away on vacation and always provides the best care! She sends picture updates regularly and follows any instructions we leave her to the tee. She does an excellent job of communicating with us, and our dogs are always so happy to see her! I appreciate Sam’s level of care so much, and it gives me such peace of mind to know my animals are in the best hands.

Sam watched our older, very particular dog once during work and we appreciated her so much that we asked her to stay with him the weekend we got married! We appreciated knowing that our boy was taken care of. We got lots of updates and pictures while we were gone and felt like we could enjoy our wedding!

Let me know if your dog has any allergies to treats or if you prefer they aren’t given any! Also let me know if your dog prefers walking to bigger, grassy areas or if they’re content with neighborhood sidewalks. Finally, let me know if your pup has any quirks about how they like to be left at home when we’re done playing (do they like music left on/do they need to be put in a certain room/etc)
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.
