Samantha is absolutely amazing! She is so sweet and flexible, which made booking with her incredibly easy. After meeting her, we felt completely comfortable having her stay with our hounds. She sent us daily updates with photos and even brought a package inside for us. We will definitely reach out to her the next time we go out of town. Highly recommend Samantha! ❤️

Schedule

I’m a reliable and caring dog sitter who treats every pet like my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing company, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, personality, and needs, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any special instructions. You can count on regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know your pup is in good hands. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your dog a comfortable, fun experience every time.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day dog sitting starts with feeding and letting the dog outside for a bathroom break. After that, there’s playtime, walks, and making sure the dog stays active and happy. Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior, provide fresh water, and give attention or comfort as needed. In the evening, I feed them again, take them out one last time, and help them settle down for the night.

When watching someone’s pet, it’s important to follow the owner’s exact instructions for feeding, including portion sizes and times, since changes can upset the animal’s routine or health. Making sure I understand their exercise needs, whether that means walks, playtime, or simply letting them out regularly. Pay attention to any medical conditions, medications, or allergies, and know how to respond in case of an emergency, including the contact information for the owner and a nearby veterinarian. Keep the pet’s environment clean and safe by removing hazards and securing doors or gates. Also, give the pet plenty of attention, comfort, and supervision, and watch for any unusual behavior like loss of appetite, lethargy, or aggression so I can act quickly if something seems wrong.
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.
