Pet care experience

I have been dog sitting on Rover for the past ten years and have loved it always. I give pet owners updates 2-3 times a day with pictures or videos of your pet so you dont have to worry about them when you’re away. I love taking care of all animals, rowdy or calm! I live right across from a huge fenced-in dog park which we can explore anytime. We can run around all day, and when we're all tired, we can lounge on the couch and relax. I take daily walks, which your pet is welcome to join. I take care of pets like they're my own, I just love them so much! My house will be like a home away from home for your pet.

Great dog sitter!! Emily watched our dog for a little over a week. We got videos and pictures several times a day. She seemed very happy playing with Emily's dog. We don't live in the area, but were there visiting family. If we head back to that area and need a sitter, we would definitely use Emily again in a heartbeat 🙂

Emily took on a very last minute dog sitting request and did fantastic with my two little dogs. She followed all requests and sent many pictures and videos each day. My dogs loved her, and she is highly recommended.

Very friendly, attentive, and communicative. Keep me updated on how my pup was doing and sent lots of photos and videos.

Emily was fantastic! Updated me multiple times a day with videos of my pup. I loved to see him running around the yard during the day and cuddled up on the couch at night. He looked like he was having so much fun I got a little worried he wouldn’t want to come home at the end of his stay 😂
