Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Samantha and I can provide trustworthy care for your dogs (& your home). I decided to join the Rover community because I love dogs. I currently have a year old female German Shepherd/Siberian Husky mix, who is absolutely amazing. She's proven to be a very fast learner and is so great with other dogs. I intend to eventually train her and get her certified to be a therapy dog so she can come to work with me and work with children in schools. I grew up with small dogs (shih-tzu, cock-a-poo, & chihuahua), but also have additional experience with medium-size dogs as well. I prefer dog-sitting in the dog's home environment, because they are most comfortable there. However, I am happy to provide care in my own home. I have experience caring for my parents' dogs back home, my neighbor's dog, and a co-workers dog, all of which can provide references if need be. I recently graduated with my masters degree in counseling and am currently "working from home" as a school counselor. I intend to spend as much time with your dog as you would like. I am most comfortable in a house with a schedule to follow. I would be happy to answer any other questions you may have and provide you with references as well.
Reviews
Great communication throughout our experience with Samantha. Super flexible with drop off and pick up. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with Samantha as it was very apparent that she knows how to handle and treat dogs. A+ stay!
Really good with my puppers!
Sam was great taking care of my rambunctious puppy! She made sure she was walked, played with and even sent some pictures to calm the nerves of a new time puppy mom! She’s my go to for dog walking!
Samantha was wonderful with our dog, Callie! We would periodically get updates and pictures. Callie ate well while we were gone for a week, and came home to see that there were no issues and had a ton of fun together. We also came home to see that Samantha cleaned up after Callie outside too!

Safety, trust & environment
I keep dogs on leash at all times outdoors. When indoors, I will keep a close eye on them and ensure they are being safe. My home is pet safe as well.
Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know Breed, personality features, bathroom needs, sleeping needs, and behavioral/temperament prior to dog sitting. I do have very mild allergies to shedding dogs, so I would prefer no shedding dogs in my own home, but I am still able to care for shedding dogs as long as we are in their home.
A typical day
We will go on walks and play with the dog's toys. We would play fetch, learn some new tricks, and I will also allow nap time ?
