I’m a Pet Sitting Biologist! ❤️🐶

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for people’s pets for over a decade, (through Rover for 4 years now!) and I have experience with behavioral training and love working with new animals. Previously, I’ve worked with zoo animals and house pets, and have a degree in Biology from CSU. Currently I am the Equipment Lead at a Biotech, so I miss getting to work with animals in my day to day. I have a cat of my own, named Jynx who is the light of my life, as I’m sure your pets are to you! I’d love to make my time with your pets as comfortable and positive as possible!

Emily was great with my fearful little pup, Pepper! She was super patient and had a great, calming energy that Pepper responded well to. Emily was also so easy to communicate and coordinate with, and super reliable. Looking forward to booking her again in the future!

Emily was so friendly and took great care of our pup! She was very good at communicating with us and sending plenty of picture’s throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend!

Emily took great care of our anxious dog Bailey! She kept us updated with lots of pictures and gave us so much peace of mind. Bailey looked very happy and relaxed and Emily left our house in great condition. Will definitely hire again!

Did a great job taking care of everyone! Great with my pup and my cats and even my snake! Got some great pictures and everyone was happy and healthy when I got home and my house was well taken care of. Thanks a lot!

Safety, trust & environment

I will not be providing services from my home, but during my time dog sitting I can provide daily walks, mini-photo shoots, and lots of love!

Information Emily F. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dog has any specific likes or dislikes (favorite toys/treats/etc), anything that may make the dog anxious or upset, (thunder, scared of men, etc) and what a typical day with this dog might be like so I can make sure everything is normal! :). I love all dogs but I have a sweet spot for herding breeds

A typical day

I can take dogs on walks, have doggy play time outside, and even do mini photo shoots with your pups! If you’re working on training, I can help with that however you need as well. I really aim for any dog sitting experience to be enjoyable and comfortable for everyone involved.

I typically work onsite on weekdays from 8am-4pm, so for check ins I am almost always available in the evenings on weekdays and all day weekends! For longer term bookings it would be very helpful to get at least a week of advanced notice so we can work together on a schedule!
