Dog and cat lover ❤️

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs my whole life including my senior and medical needs dogs. Within the past year I have gained experience with puppies, newborn kittens, feral cats, big and small dogs, and even diabetic pets.

Samantha was on time, responsible, and very caring. She and my dog had a great time. I came home to a clean house and a happy dog, what more could I ask for.

Samantha is your girl! From our first message I could tell she is here because she genuinely cares for fur babies. She took the time to meet my two dogs and had a lot of experience with being aware of any routine or special requests that she would need to be aware of. Samantha is flexible and was so understanding when my plans changed. I'm looking forward to having her watch my dogs in the future! Thanks Samantha :)

Samantha is amazing! I can’t say it enough. She stayed in our home and took care of our senior Pug, Diesel, for almost 10 days while we visited family in England. She is lovely, trustworthy, kind, polite and very attentive. She absolutely loves animals, we could tell from the first time we met her. Other Rover hosts we’ve used don’t even compare (we’ve had some terrible experiences in the past). Every day, we received pictures, videos and text updates. She is good at reading an owner and knew we were anxious about leaving our little fella, so kept us in the loop without us even needing to ask. It was really comforting. She kept up with all of his meds (there are lots) and asked questions when needed, which we really appreciated. We felt 100% confident that we’d left our little guy in very capable hands. When we returned home our house was immaculate. Diesel was fed, watered and bouncing around like a puppy again. We could tell he’d had a great time. He even had a pup cup or two while we were gone! His favorite. I will only use Samantha again. I wouldn’t consider anyone else. It’s so important to trust the person you’re leaving your pet and even your home with and we trusted her implicitly. Thank you Samantha, from the 3 of us. Best of luck with your studies.

Samantha was awesome! She took really good care of our 2 doggies, she followed all care instructions and we received pictures every day. Our dogs were happy and healthy when we returned from our vacation. We would definitely book with her again. Thanks Samantha!!

Safety, trust & environment

I am unable to take pets into my own home because I live in an apartment with a cat and a 14.5 year old dog. However, I am able to care for pets in their own home. I am very good with schedules and following instructions. I would accommodate the pets and their owners to the best of my abilities, including cleaning messes, feedings, walks, playtime, car rides, naps, etc

Information Samantha P. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how often your pets need to go bathroom, when your pet eats, and when they sleep. I also would like to know little quirks like “will only eat if you sit in the room with her” or “will chew on leash during walks” etc. I also would like to know commands and queue words/phrases that your pets know such as “paw” vs “high five” or “outside?” vs “potty”

A typical day

I will create games for your dogs, teach tricks, and take them in walks. I will freeze kong treats for them, nap with them, and take them to dog parks with owner approval.
