About: I have been taking care of pets for about 7 years on my own. Whether that be while babysitting, house sitting, or puppy sitting. I have plenty of references for my past work. I have been with pets for up to two weeks where I keep their normal schedule and feed, bathe, walk, play, and many other activities. I have had two puppies of my own that I have trained. One a yellow lab and one a corgi. Just know your pups would be in great hands! I work from home so I am able to be around the animals all the time. With working from home if you are needing me to house sit and pet sit as well I could be there full time as long as there is a good internet connection. I have weekends and Fridays off and the rest of the week I work 7:30-6pm I love being outdoors as well, I can take your pups for walks, hikes, swimming, car rides and so much more! I am open to anything and can talk more privately about whatever you need! don't be afraid to get a hold of me! I am expecting my first baby Jan of 2027 so bookings around Jan- feb will be unavailable, I will be back and taking clients again ASAP! I work from home and my schedule is M-Th 7:30-6pm and have Fri-Sun off of work. I have the availability to work from anywhere. I can work while watching your pups and have them not leave my sight. I am also a local artist. I am always working on projects but when watching your pups they will have lots of attention! I am building a house right now. When it is done I will be opening up day care and in home care at my place as well so keep an eye out!! I care for animals the same way their owners would. I keep their same schedule as much as I can. I make sure they’re safe and sound while having fun and playing! A thing that sets my care apart is that I do work from home which makes it possible to be around all the time as long as you have good wifi in your home. I take pride in the care I give and the life I live! I spend lots of time outdoors, involved in the community, creating art, and being with family.
“Samantha was super awesome. She walked our dog Ruby while we were exploring Pybus market. She came very prepared with water and snakes for the hour walk. Ruby immediately liked her and Ruby knows dog people. Highly recommend Samatha and will absolutely use her again when we are in the area.”

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Winthrop. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Winthrop after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
