About: I've been surrounded by cats and dogs my entire life! I have walked dogs from as small as a Miniature Dascshund to german Rottweilers, and love everything in between. I have experience fostering dogs, and training in basic commands like sit, down, and with recall. I have plenty of experience pet-sitting any size of dog. I am currently working part time while applying to graduate programs, so I have plenty of time to fit pet care into my schedule, and can't wait! I come in and check in on the pets, and generally spend a while hanging out with them, petting them and just giving them some company. I make sure that they have food and water, and that there are no hazards for them to hurt themselves on.

“Emily was our first experience with Rover and we are so glad we picked her for our needs! Emily took our request on a very short notice and was very willing and flexible to make it work. She showed great communication skills putting us at ease and most importantly, our dog loved her. We will definitely use her again.”


“Amanda is awesome! She was very attentive and followed instructions precisely. She was also great at communicating every detail and asked for guidance whenever she faced an issue we hadn't addressed. I highly recommend her, and will use her again!”



“Cindy was amazing! She took great care of our senior dog Harley with the upmost love and care. Medication was given daily. Pictures were sent throughout Harley’s stay. We welcome Cindy to care for Harley. Thank you Cindy, Harley’s Parents”

Jacob B.
“Jacob is hands down the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! From the moment we met him, it was clear he genuinely loves animals and takes his responsibility seriously. He was incredibly reliable, communicative, and attentive to our dog’s needs. Our pup can be a little anxious when we're away, but Jacob’s calm demeanor and regular updates (including the cutest photos!) put us completely at ease. Not only did he follow all of our care instructions perfectly, but he went above and beyond making sure our dog got plenty of playtime, and even cleaned up after muddy walks without us asking. When we got home, our dog was happy, healthy, and clearly very well cared for. We can’t recommend Jacob highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who is responsible, kind, and will treat your pet like family, Jacob is your person!”
