Safety, trust & environment

I have two dogs if your pet needs company. I can also leave them at home if need be as I have a very trusted roommate who I will split rover funds with. One of my dogs is elderly and VERY well behaved and the other is about seven, loves to play, and is also very well behaved. I am familiar with crating, training, and need for routine. I can administer most types of medicine. I even had to give my pig injections when he was sick!

Amazing Job, regular communication, consistent updates on food, water, litter, and went the extra mile to play with Carmen!

Emily is one of the most reliable and communicative sitters my cats have had. My kitties are older ladies, and knowing that I have someone who is comfortable and capable of handling the challenges that come with that gives me great peace of mind while I am away. Emily is also able to be flexible - when weather caused my travel plans to change a bit, she was able to pivot and add an extra day. And of course, she loves and dotes on animals, which also makes her great.

Emily was great to work with! She communicated well, sent lots of pictures and followed instructions. Would definitely rebook with her.

House Sitting • Aug 26, 2025

Emily did such a wonderful job caring for Ardley again! Ardley can be nervous on walks, but Emily was willing to work with us on what Ardley needed and made sure everything went smoothly. She sent frequent updates with their walks and snuggle sessions. Additionally, she went above and beyond to alert us and accommodate repairs when we had a maintenance issue at the house while we were away.

Emily stepped up at the last minute when my cat care plans fell through, and she went above and beyond in so many ways! She is one of the most communicative sitters my cats have ever had -- I felt very in the loop about everything going on with the cats in my absence. She made me feel completely at ease and comfortable leaving my girls in her care!
