Information Samantha P. would like to know about your pet

It is best to let me know your commands for your pup so we can communicate. Also, please leave out your preferred cleaning supplies for any accidents.

A typical day

I love to play if your pup is up for it. Whether it is fetch or just chasing them around the yard. Snuffle mats, hide the treat games, or training practice are all things I can do during my visit.

Pet care experience

I have been doing Rover for over 3 years. I have many repeat clients and I've been able to make pet care my full time job. My very first memories as a child was being with dogs. My first experience caring for my own pet was as a child we adopted a puppy from the shelter. I named him Max. He grew up to the ripe old age of 16, but at the end he was a lot to handle health-wise. We had many furry, feathery and prickly companions over the years. I know the struggles of being a pet parent. Through the years I've had the pleasure of caring for cats, dog, hedgehogs, birds, rodents and iguanas. I've helped friends, neighbors and neighbor's friends with their pets and house sitting. I have a college degree in Biology and Business Management. We have one dog at home, his name is Twix. He is about 35 lbs and according to his DNA test is mostly "Super Mutt" and chihuahua. We also have two human boys at home :) Thank you for your consideration and I hope to hear from you soon!
