Thank you for considering me to care for your pets; it would be my great honor to provide care for them as if they were my own! I so look forward to speaking with you further, and until then, I wish you and your furry/scaly/slimy friends all the best!
Information Emily C. would like to know about your pet
Allergies, medications, significant medical history (heart attacks, strokes, runny nose, runny eyes, etc.), age, special needs. I have no breed preferences, and have no predispositions towards any breeds!
A typical day
Walks around the neighborhood, local nature hikes (if desired), leashed walks in Fed Way/Tacoma parks (if desired), lots of indoor/outdoor playtime, etc. I have a dog-friendly car for transport if you would like your dog walked somewhere special around town!

Pet care experience
**Yes, all walks are 1 hour for $30! Please see details below.** MY BACKGROUND • 15+ years of experience caring personally & professionally for all sorts of dogs, cats, fish, birds, chickens, goats, horses, lizards, rodents, and more — both on & off this platform. • Lifelong pet owner, currently sharing my home with my partner and our four dogs! • Part-time work in Theatre & Film as a production manager, designer, and technician. I typically work shows nights and weekends, which you'll see reflected in my availability. MY PRACTICES & TRAINING • I love exercising with dogs—hiking, long walks, and runs—and am also happy to provide indoor play for cats, puppies, seniors, and weather-sensitive dogs. **Currently not offering dog running services while I recover from a hip displacement.** • Trained in canine and feline CPR and general emergency response. • Practiced in administering oral, injectable, and topical medications and experienced in caring for senior pets, animals in declining health, and pets with special needs (e.g., frequent walks, assistance up stairs, separation from other dogs). • Extensive experience with shy, nervous, and reactive pets. For reactive dogs, I request a brief owner-accompanied walk before the first solo walk to ensure safe, consistent handling. • I have experience training both my own pets and reinforcing client's training. While I am not a dog trainer and do not offer these services independently, I’m happy to reinforce your methods while your pet is in my care. TYPES OF BOOKINGS / USING ROVER DOG WALKING General-purpose booking for any dog walking. Walks are 45-60min. A "Report Card" will be sent after each walk (in which I always include pictures), detailing water/food given, bathroom stops, and a map of the walk. I do not walk multiple clients at once without explicit permission from both owners, as well as a neutral introduction between dogs. Rates: Rate: [45 minutes through 1 hour (base rate): $30]* DROP-IN VISITS In-home visits for any non-canine pet (cats, fish, rodentia, reptiles, etc.), un-vaccinated puppies, senior dogs, or other special-needs canines. Drop-in visits usually consist of feedings and waterings, backyard potty/play, in-house play-time, medication application, and other daily routine and care items as the owner sees fit to request. **Please do not simply book a drop-in visit instead of a walk because of the price difference — these are two different types of booking.** Rate: [30-45 minutes (base rate): $25]* HOUSE-SITTING (OVERNIGHT) **CURRENTLY INACTIVE** CANCELLATIONS Please kindly notify me at least 2 hours in advance of a walk or drop-in cancellation. I am happy to be flexible, but I do plan my days around drive time and care for my own dogs. If you decide to reach out to me to care for your pet(s), please make sure you are available within a few days of our first contact for a "Meet-and-Greet" before we confirm the booking. Here, we will go over your pet's care instructions including food, walks, crating or open house policy, any reactivity information, as well as important information about your house (such as key/code swapping) if you are ready to move forward with booking. *All rates will differ during Holidays, as well as for additional household pets under the booking. You will always receive a detailed invoice from Rover prior to confirmation of the booking or payment. USING ROVER • I've been sitting through Rover for 10 years now, so have seen the service go through innumerable iterations and updates. Please let me know if there is ever any issue with the app or website, and I am happy to do my best to answer or get in touch with the Sitter Support via email. • All payments, once confirmed, are held by the app until after the walk/visit/stay is complete, at which point the payment will be released to me within three business days. • Rover sitters (me) keep only 80% of our total earnings (the other 20% is kept by the Company to cover their insurance policy, pay for their support staff, etc). I price my services accordingly as this is my full-time job, based on my experience, and the level of care I provide. There is a tip option recently introduced, but I price my services to avoid relying on tips. Rover as a company subjects all bookings to a "service fee" (10% of the booking cost); this is out of my hands, so please do not ask me to remove it. • All Rover Report Cards will be sent directly to your phone via text message immediately upon completion of the walk/visit. All messages that owners send me via the app/website are delivered directly to my cell phone via text. You are welcome to call me at any time once we have booked a walk/visit/stay.

Fantastic visit with our pets. Very appreciative of her attention to detail.
Emily has watched my cats several times and always does a great job! She communicates well and goes above and beyond.


Emily is a pleasure to work with. Well organized and took great care of my dogs.

Emily was great with my dog going on nice walks and I appreciated lovely pictures
