Cat person providing purrfect care

Meowdy! 🤠 I’m Sami — a cat lover and care professional with over 15 years of experience. I’ve been living with and absolutely adoring cats since I was 9, and I specialize in caring for felines with all kinds of personalities and backgrounds: from playful kittens to shy seniors and everything in between. I am focused on cat care, and have two kitties myself. I’m calm, reliable, and deeply familiar with the needs of anxious or special-needs cats. My own kitty, Boba, has epilepsy, and I’ve become an expert at providing extra attentive, gentle care. I truly treat every cat like my own. Whether you’ve got a bold adventurer or a nervous hider, I’ll make sure your feline feels safe, seen, and cared for. I will always respect your cat's boundaries, and send detailed rover cards with every visit. 🧡🤎🖤🩶🤍 House Sitting: Rates will vary based on your specific needs. Please be detailed with your request so we can discuss a fee that is fair to both of us. Thanks.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m stopping by for a quick visit or staying overnight, I focus on making your cat feel safe, relaxed, and cared for in their own space. I follow their usual routine—feeding, litter box cleaning, grooming, playtime, and any special care they need like meds or extra snuggles (if they’re into that). I’m especially patient with shy or anxious cats and always move at their pace to help them feel comfortable. I’m also super respectful of your home and leave things just as I found them. You’ll get regular updates and cute photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well looked after.

We had a last minute scramble to get accommodations for our kitties, and Sami ensured our kitties were well taken care of! Great communication, timeliness, and lovely pictures.

Samantha was amazing with my cats! Even when accidents happened while we were away, she handled them and made sure cats were always safe and taken care of. 10/10 would book with her again!

Samantha was able to accommodate my fairly last-minute request, which I really appreciated. She seemed very comfortable with my cat Gibson during our meet and greet, and he was happy and content when we got home! I also loved the detailed notes and photos she provided throughout the stay. Overall, a great experience, and I would definitely book with her again!

Schedule

Please give me a 1 hour window (30 mins before, 30mins after) for our scheduled drop-in times to arrive; I generally have multiple drop ins scheduled. I work full time on a hybrid remote and in office flexible schedule. With the flexibility my employer offers, I have the freedom to switch up my schedule to fit the current weeks needs and be available for your fur baby when necessary.

Cats
Samantha can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I will send a short questionnaire over once the booking has been confirmed to get to know your baby(ies)! Meet & Greets are available upon your request.
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.
