Loving Sitter with Flexible Weekday
I’ve loved being around pets for as long as I can remember. Friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets like they were my own. I’ve looked after everything from 4-pound Chihuahuas to three Bernese Mountain Dogs at once—and I’ve enjoyed every moment. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from high-energy pups (like my old roommate’s dog, who I helped train) to shy, skittish dogs (like the one I grew up with). For the past few years, I’ve also been working through Rover and helping neighbors with pet care—primarily watching an older dog recovering from ACL surgery and an elderly cat with special needs. I take pride in being patient, reliable, and tuned in to what each pet needs to feel safe and loved.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
While my apartment doesn’t allow pets, I’m more than happy to pet sit in your home or take your dog on walks. I’m very comfortable meeting new dogs, handling walks, and crating if needed. I always adjust to each pet’s personality and routine—whether that means sticking to house rules, keeping up with high energy, or cuddling on the couch. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.

Emily is the best! So reliable & takes such good care of Doll! Provides lots of pics & updates and makes my dog feel so comfortable. They became fast friends!!
Emily was really communicative and our dog seemed pooped after her walk — signs of a great one! Would definitely hire her again
Emily is amazing! Super dependable & accommodating, made our last minute request work! She took great care of Dolly, sending lots of photos, updates and flagging anything she saw. Emily made my trip stress free!
Emily did an amazing job watching my dogs. She was great at communicating and ensuring my pets were well cared for during my trip.
Emily was truly amazing she even stopped by my house a day prior so I can go over everything with her since I had an early flight out the day she was supposed to come! She constantly sent me pictures and text updates which I appreciated so so much! Not only did she take pepper on walks but brought her to cool restaurants on Abbot Kenny! Pepper loves going places so I really appreciated that Emily took her everywhere with her and spent lots of time with her! She is trustworthy and I will definitely be using her again
