Availability

I have a small dog at home, so I regularly take her out for a short walk at least 4 times during the day. I work from home on Fridays, and on Monday through Thursday, I’m in the office but always come home during lunch for a walk, followed by a longer activity when I get home.

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs are allowed to freely hang out in my home, including couch/bed while I am home. Depending on the dog's comportment and their guardian's wishes, I would crate the visiting dog(s) while out of the home, or separate them using gates in separate rooms for ensured safety of your dog and my own. Please note: I require a meet and greet for any new boarding requests to ensure our dogs get along and stay safe during their stay. Not required for repeat stays.

Luna and I generally take 2-4 short walks in the neighborhood daily, and otherwise hang out on the couch and play with toys when I’m not working. On weekends, we often go to the park (weather permitting), or explore some short hiking trails. If your dog requires more/less, just let me know!

Emily was amazing. She took great care of our dogs and was very understanding and accommodating when unforeseen circumstances led us to booking at the last minute. Will definitely use again in the future and recommend her!

Emily was fantastic with my senior dog, an 11 year old chocolate lab named Moose. Moose clearly enjoyed his stay and will be returning for more visits!

Emily was amazing with my anxious girl, Twin. She kept her happy, calm, and comfortable the whole time, and the updates were great. Highly recommend I’ll definitely book with her again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
