Highlights
Pet care experience
Can’t wait to meet your fur baby!
Hi there! My name is Em, my pronouns are they/them/theirs, and I recently moved to Flagstaff for a term of service with Arizona Conservation Corps. I started caring for the pets and homes of neighbors and family friends as early as 10 years old, growing up in Lancaster, PA. After a few years of living in CO and MT, I spent 9 years in Philadelphia, and worked more consistently with pet owners during that time. I have always been a big animal person. I love to get down and active with engaging play for high-energy dogs, as much as I love being present with the cuddly and loving lap friends. I have experience administering medication to both dogs and cats. These days, working with AZCC until early December, I work 8 days straight and then have 6 days off. Any Rover bookings would only occur on my off time which is very flexible. My calendar is pre-set to show that availability.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is always top priority, and I do everything I can to establish and build trust with the pet parents I work with. It’s very important for me to know that my clients feel comfortable with me in their home and with their fur babies in my care.
Ratings and reviews
Em did such a great job with Winnie! She has some anxiety with storms and Em was able to handle all of quirkiness. Em also house sat for me and everything was just great when I came home.
Emily was an excellent sitter and very communicative! My dog Penny took to Emily from the start, and I was glad to leave her in Emily’s capable hands.
Wonderful!! So grateful to have found Emily in the area - she’s great with my dog!
Emily was great! My young pit mix can be a lot to handle, but I was confident leaving her in Emily's care. Very responsive, good communication, we were able to schedule our meet and greet fast. Emily was attentive to my dogs needs and I would absolutely recommend her to others.
Emily was wonderful! She loved on my handful of kitties while I was gone and I had no worries. I was happy to come back to a well taken care of home and my fur babies doing great. Highly recommend!
Emily is amazing! On very short notice, she agreed to stay with our “girls”. She arrived right on time for the meet and greet and the dogs immediately loved her. She took great care of them and our home. We came home to two happy dogs and two at ease dog parents. I recommend Emily and we will use her again ourselves without hesitation!

Schedule
I have off work for 6 days straight every other week, and these are the available times my Rover calendar reflects. Starting mid-December, my availability is unknown and flexible, and I am open to holiday bookings in both Nov and Dec!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsDogs over 1 year oldEm can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- I like to be as informed as possible regarding everything from your dog’s health needs to the usual commands or specific words they respond to, their preferences, and personal quirks. I like to have an idea of their normal day and know things like how often they typically get treats, when, and what for.
