Pet care experience

Kind keeper for your sweet pets!

Hello, my name is Emily! I've always had a deep connection with animals, and a natural ability to care for them and connect with them. Because of this, I've had my fair share of pets through the years, all of whom I have adored. I have cared for cats, dogs, hamsters, gerbils, rats, rabbits, hermit crabs, lizards, guinea pigs, and fish! I’m a graduate from Carnegie Mellon University, living and working in and around the Pittsburgh Area. I’ve been pet sitting through Rover for 8 years, and have had the privilege of helping more pets and families than I can count. My experience helping a large variety of animals with different personalities and needs has allowed me to develop good instincts and judgment when caring for new and familiar pets. I am always grateful to spend time with your furry family members, and hope to make your time away from your pets as stress free as possible for you. I teach private voice lessons online in the evenings, and take class periodically during the day. This gives me the flexibility to offer my services at a variety of times throughout the day! Please reach out to me if you have any questions, or would like to set up a meet and greet to discuss my services further. I look forward to hearing from you!

Besides great dependable care with photos to prove it, Emily really engages with our cat and indulges all her wishes (play, brushing etc). She’s a natural with animals.

Emily is so dependable, thorough, organized, efficient and really takes the time to get to know and appreciate our cat. Doja loves her so we don’t worry a bit about her while away.

Emily was phenomenal with our 12-week old Corgi puppy! We sincerely appreciated the meet-and-greet that she offered prior to watching our girl. We know that puppies can be rather spunky and unpredictable, but Emily’s experience and confidence in working with her was reassuring. Certainly recommend booking Emily and we hope to have another opportunity to book her in the future, too!

Emily is amazing!!! My dogs absolutely love her. I have 4 and they can be a handful but they took to her like she’s known them for years. She’s so detailed in what’s happened each day and really gives me such great peace each day she stops in with them. 🩵
