Whether your dog is a cuddle bug or one that loves to run I am the sitter for you. I can keep them on their normal schedules while watching your dog and maybe throw in an extra walk or play time! I am great at following directions to make sure my time with them goes smoothly.

Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet

I am extremely accommodating for any and all pet needs! Any special requests will be followed as directed. I look forward to making your dogs time with me special.

A typical day

From snuggling on the couch to playing ball outside, and everything else fun in between. My time spent with your dog will be mentally stimulating and physically challenging, depending on their own individual needs. Taking a long walk, so if your dog is ready, I am too!

Pet care experience

I will take care of your dog or cat like they are my own. I currently have an almost 3 year old Bernedoodle who I trained myself when she was a puppy. My love of animals started when I was 5 years old and I got my first dog. He came home in a shoebox and grew into 90lbs of German Shepherd that was gentle as could be with his little girl. Throughout the years I had several types of animals from hamsters to lizards I don't think I was ever without a pet! Let me be there for your pets, we will have a lot of fun!

Sam is so amazing! Cooper and Gunner love her and she makes our minds at ease when we are away from them. Having her come hang with the boys has been a game changer and any dog would be lucky to hang out with her!

Samantha was fantastic and took excellent care of our dogs. She provided updates for us multiple times throughout the day, which definitely kept out minds at ease. We highly recommend this dog sitter to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate care for their pet. We will definitely be using their services again!

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.
