Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, Loving Pet Care
I’ve cared for pets for over 5 years, including dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. Friends and neighbors often rely on me for walks, feedings, and playtime while they’re away. What sets me apart is my calm, patient personality and attention to detail — skills I’ve developed through nursing school and my science background. I’m comfortable with administering oral medications, caring for senior pets, and following specific routines for anxious or high-energy pets. I always treat every animal like family, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and understood while their owner is away.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets, I prioritize safety and comfort above all else. I always follow your pet’s normal routine and respect any household rules you set. During walks, I use secure leashing and avoid unsafe areas or weather conditions. At home, I double-check doors, gates, and feeding instructions. You can count on regular updates and photos, so you always feel connected and reassured that your pet is safe and happy.
Ratings and reviews
Samantha goes the extra mile for 'Mikey', 'Olive Oyl' and me. Rover and 'Sam' have proven to be valuable resources. I will gladly continue to request her services for as long as she is available and willing.


Sam is excellent. I thank Rover and certainly Sam in particular for allowing me to enjoy staycations with peace of mind. Home and cats just as they should be upon my return.


Sam did an excellent job taking care of my kitties while I was away! She showed them love and attention. They had plenty of food and water when I returned and their litter box was pristine. Thanks Sam! Highly recommend!
Samantha is the best dog sitter ever! She’s so sweet to my dogs, loves them like we do when we’re gone, is super thorough, and always makes us feel like our dogs are safe and well taken care of.
Thank you so much for taking such great care of the girls! Look forward to using your services again! 😻😻
I've been fortunate in many ways thru the years and once again luck has been on my side by finding Samantha M. at Rover. Have decided to get out and about more and was hopeful this site and this individual would be the key. Couldn't be happier with both. Samantha made me feel comfortable with a meet & greet and has proven I made the right decision. Just completed her first walk-ins for my two cats. Great job! Kept me completely informed and followed all verbal requests. I will be asking Samantha for her continued assistance 2-3 days per month and likely one lengthy (10-14) day period each year beginning in 2027. By all appearances, Rover is a great service and Samantha is an excellent representative of the peace of mind they can offer.

Schedule
As a nursing student, my schedule is flexible — I’m available for early mornings, evenings, and weekends. Pet care fits perfectly into my day because I love being active and spending time outdoors between classes and study sessions. Whether it’s a walk to get some exercise or a drop-in visit for company, I’ll make sure your pet’s needs are always prioritized.
