Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve always loved animals and had them around most of my life. My mom owns an animal rescue back home and there’s always been cats off all ages in our home that i’ve helped to care for. I had three childhood cats that I grew up with and now as an adult my own cat Cider! I think they are the sweetest animals and will care for your pets as I would want Cider to be taken care of. Yes I love dogs as well and have been gaining more experience with them, i’d love to take care of your pups :)

This was our first time using Rover, and Samantha did not disappoint! She kept us updated throughout our trip, and our dogs seemed so happy and relaxed with her, even our nervous dog. Our home was left in perfect condition. We would definitely recommend Samantha and book with her again!

Samantha did a fantastic job taking care of my cat while I was traveling! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of.

Samantha is extremely personable and was great with my dog and cat. She was there when she said she would be and the animals seemed to really like her. Will definitely work with her again, if she’s willing :)

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.
