Energetic dog lover!

Pet care experience

Hello! I am a young professional in South Lake Tahoe who is searching for some extra work by dog sitting/walking and house sitting! After living in New Zealand for 7 years, I am back on Rover and excited to help look after your pets! I grew up training guide dogs for 4 years, so I have multiple years of experience working and training dogs, specifically helping dogs become well behaved (on and off leash), socialised, and obedient. I also grew up with 6 cats so I am very comfortable with animals. Additionally, I have house sat and dog walked for multiple friends and couldn't ask for a better gig. I am very active and love to go hiking/walking/running or just playing in the park with dogs. I am in a job transition so I have an open schedule, as well as a car for transportation. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and helping out in any way that I can!

Samantha was great with our two pups. She stayed at our home with them and took them for long walks, sent us pics while we were away, and took great care of our home. House looked great when we gat back and dogs were quite happy and clearly very comfortable with her. Definitely recommend Samantha for pet sitting and / or house sitting. Would definitely book with her again.

Samantha was incredible! My dog instantly fell in love with her and gets excited now every time he sees her! She is great with both dogs walks and over nights! We request her every time now - book Samantha you won't regret it!

Samantha took such great care of my pup. I am very thankful for her professionalism, and her genuine love of animals. I needed someone quickly for the weekend and Samantha was more than willing to take care of Nala! I will definitely be using her services again.
