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.

About Samantha S.
Communication
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.
Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet
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.
A typical day
It all depends on what your cat enjoys! For playful kitties, I love interactive toys like wands, laser pointers, and catnip toys to keep them active and entertained. For more relaxed or older cats, I’m happy to hang out for gentle brushing, quiet lap time, or just sitting nearby so they feel comforted. I also pay attention to their mood—some days they want to play, and some days they just want a cozy nap buddy. Whatever their vibe, I’m here to match it and make sure they’re happy.

Pet care experience
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.
Reviews

Consistent, communicative, and super kind! My sweet cat was well taken care of while I was away!


Samantha did a great job watching our two cats! She sent plenty of cute pictures and thorough updates throughout the weekend, would absolutely recommend her 😊
She took amazing care of my shy tux kitty! Thank u Sami!

Samantha was truly such a phenomenal cat sitter, you can tell she has cats of her own. She was so thoughtful and proactive about everything throughout our booking. We had an issue with our litter robot while we were unreachable and she kept us informed and resolved it herself. Plus, our cat loved her! She sent the best photos every time she dropped in - would 100% recommend her.
