First time using Rover, and in another state (AZ) that I'm not familiar with. I came down from Las Vegas to skydive and needed a dog sitter; Sammy Jo lived 2.1 miles from the DZ and accepted my job. I got to my 1st campsite and wasn't happy there, I reached out to Sammy Jo and she recommended another RV campsite closer to the DZ and better amenities. Sammy Jo went above and beyond for me,I'd give 10 🌟 Thanks again Sammy Jo

Sammy was amazing in taking care of our dogs. She communicated and sent pictures while we were away. Our dogs seemed very happy with her care as well!!

I’ve known SammyJo for a long time, and I can confidently say she would be an incredible pet sitter or dog walker. SammyJo has always had a natural bond with animals, treating them with care, love, and attention to detail. Her experience with pets, from dogs to cats and everything in between, shows in how effortlessly she connects with animals. Not only is she reliable and responsible, but SammyJo also has the warmest heart when it comes to taking care of pets. She understands that every pet has its unique needs, and she goes above and beyond to make sure pets are safe, happy, and well taken care of. Whether it’s a long walk or cuddling with them at home, SammyJo is someone you can trust to care for your furry family members as if they were her own. You and your pets are in the best hands with Sammy. I can’t recommend her enough!

Sammyjo is great with animals. We grew up taking care of all sorts of animals and there was never a day that a chore or an animal was not taken care of. Sammy will take care of your pet like they are her own because she has a strong love for animals.
