Full Attention For Your Dog

I’ve spent over 25 years caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes, both my own and others’. I love helping dogs learn commands and walk confidently on a leash, and I take special care with senior dogs, offering gentle, patient attention to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe. Every dog I care for gets love, consistency, and respect-because they’re family.

We are home and Moose was well taken care of. No accidents in the home and he was relaxed. Sam listened to all are instructions and was very good at communicating with us and giving us updates. Would definitely recommend using Sam.

Sam has watched my dog on several occasions and I have not had a bad experience with him. My dog enjoys him being around and I know that he is in good hands when I leave town. Although my dog is easy to handle, he does have dry skin and requires a daily pill with his food which Sam kept up with throughout my experiences with him. I am glad there are reliable dog sitter on Rover that I can trust without having to worry about my furry loved one being mistreated and not held up to my expectations.

Sam was very good with checking on my dog and taking him out for walks when I needed an extra hand. You can tell Sam loves animals and will do what he can to assist any pet owner by taking their dog(s) out on walks, playing, feeding etc. Your pet is in good hands with Sam 🙂

Sam has stayed with us on a couple occasions. During his visits he has helped walk and feed our 5 dogs. Two of my dogs are usually not very friendly with people, but they got along great with him!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, particular behaviors, allergies, fears, or anxiety triggers, so I can account for these during my visits. Also, if they have you or the pet has any particular area for walks or outside playtime.
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.
