Samantha was great! Rosie, Lilo, and Luna will miss her! I would highly recommend Samantha and will ask her to sit with our dogs again. We are very very happy with her and appreciate the updates she gave while we were out of town. Thank you so much Samantha!!

Samantha does a fantastic job dog sitting. She goes above a beyond in caring for our dog and the house is in perfect shape when we get back. She gives daily updates and photos which we appreciate. We have a high energy, big personality dog and Samantha gives her lots of attention, walks, and play time. Highly recommend Samantha to anyone needing pet care in their home.

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.
