Safety, trust & environment

I am a paper person. If you want something done specifically you must write it down for me. Feeding routine, location of items, I prefer to have written down in text either physically or on a device. I do everything we can to make pets feel safe. If you have more skittish animals we will respect their space and let them warm up as needed.

Information samantha m. would like to know about your pet

Any medication or special needs, any destructive behaviors or snoring I prefer a heads up so I am prepared. If you give written instructions and show me how to do something I can do it.

A typical day

I am a petter. I will shower your pets with affection and play with them as much as we can. We will let pets sleep with us if they are allowed to and love to go outside and play with them till they're exhausted. (Note: Due to some medical issues I currently am unable to exercise pets every day, as my symptoms fluctuate unpredictably.)

Pet care experience

This is a joint account for jobs over a week long. I am Samantha M. I own and run the account. My Rover partner is Emily C, who has a completely separate Rover profile you can look at. I (Samantha) have been pet sitting for five years and Emily has been sitting for one. I sat outside of Rover and Emily has sat with Rover exclusively. We do long jobs together and are wuite the well oiled machine. Some of the reviews on the profile talk about jobs we did together before we changed rhis account to be for booking both of us.

My 3 dogs were fed which was great however the condition my house was in was unacceptable.

We just had Samantha for one night, she is everything you would want in a pet sitter / house sitter. She is friendly, professional, communicates well, and the dogs only had great things to say about her. We hope she will house sit for us again!

Samantha has taken care of our pets (2 dogs, 2 cats, and a Bearded Dragon) twice now. Both times she has done an excellent job caring for our pets and communicating with us. She is responsible, reliable, and trustworthy. I would strongly recommend her pet care and house sitting services

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.
