Safety, trust & environment

I have a privacy fenced in back yard with plenty of room for playtime and so many toys! There is also a shallow doggie pool if you are interested for your pup to have some water fun and of course they will be fully supervised. I have extra large crates so lugging one would not be necessary. You will receive a full tour of where your loved one will be staying before or when you arrive. There will be two friendly and loving dogs for your pet to play with throughout their stay as well.

I can’t thank Samm enough! I have never left my cats more than 1 night let alone with a sitter and I’m so happy I found Samm. They are incredibly needy cats who need lots of love and attention and she tended to every need they had and more. They were so happy each time she visited and probably forgot we were even gone at times. We got so many pictures at the end of each visit which made me happy to see my babies being taken care of and so loved while I was gone. If you’re looking for an amazing sitter who is trustworthy and will love your babies like their own, Samm is the perfect fit! I can’t wait to have her cat sit for us again. Thank you!! ?

Samm was nothing short of incredible. Not only was she kind to me, but to our two babies. Our youngest guy is very high energy, and we've always been nervous to get new people to watch him while we're away..but she did everything in her power not only to make us feel comfortable with the situation via conversation,but to send us pictures every step of the way. She's a beautiful soul,and we had such a good night experience with her. Would definitely recommend her services time and time again. :)

Samm was truly the best cat sitter we've ever had on Rover! She was so dedicated to sending us so many different photos, details about how our cats were doing and was so responsive to every little question I'd ask. She also kept everything so tidy and really went above and beyond what we asked for. I can tell she really cared about their welfare and wanted to make us being away as pleasant as she possibly could for them. Even though they are shy cats she tried her hardest to play with them as much as possible and talked to them to make them feel comfortable and looked after. They were able to warm up to her more each day! We will continue to book her without a doubt for our cats!

Caring for pets is my full time job. I have open availability and am very flexible. It’s understandable leaving your pet is stressful, I like to minimize that stress by taking all of my time to provide care, comfort, fun, and safety for all of your fur babies.

Information needed ahead of time is allergies, and temperament. I love to give the dogs treats and need to know in advance what they cannot have. Some dogs have triggers that make their temperament uneasy, this may include loud noises, gestures, etc.
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.
