Bringing Smiles to Dogs!

Hi! Nice to meet everyone, my name is Sam (for short)! I take care of your furbabies, knowing they're safe and sound with me! Not to mention the amount of love and affection they'll receive from me 😄! I watch for their body language and behaviors, I want to ensure that each pet in my care feels comfortable and safe. I want your furbabies to feel respected and feel like they're family to me (because they are!) 💓. I have experience caring for pups of all ages and backgrounds, including elderly dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs or medical conditions. -I have a wide range of experience with a variety of pets such as parrots, reptiles, rodents, etc. - I am comfortable with handling dogs who have dog aggression and I know to proceed with an encounter of another dog. I am comfortable administering medication to a variety of animals and as well as ointments on sensitive areas. I know how vital it is to give them their medicine on time, so I always make sure it’s on the dot! I also have experience with adminstering shots. I’m always prepared for the unexpected, so I always carry around a first aid kit wherever I go, so injuries do not slide by me! I am always ready to go above and beyond to ensure their safety and well-being!!😊

Safety, trust & environment

I like to follow my client's pet routine exactly, so not only are they comfortable with me, but your furbabies will not be stressed over changes while you are gone. We will go out on walks, have plenty of play time, and they will of course be given unconditional love💕!!

Samantha did an excellent job taking care of my pup over a holiday weekend. She paid extra attention to his needs and was able to calm him even during firework evenings.

I would highly recommend Samantha. I felt so comfortable with her watching. Cataleya she sent me pictures and updates Daily and when I got back home, it was the same as I left it. She took very good care of my home as well. Highly recommend her you will not be disappointed.

We are so happy we found Sam through Rover! She takes great care of Harley and our house. We always see if she is available when we need a sitter!

Sam was a wonderful house / pet sitter for Harley. She communicated well with us and sent lots of pictures throughout our time away. We will definitely be using her again.

I need to know if the pups take any sort medications (if they do: what times and how does it affect their behaviors). I would also like to know how they interact during walks and what is their normal routine like.
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.
