Safety, trust & environment

When coming to your home, my top priority is making your animal feel as comfortable as possible. I’m happy to spend the night, go for walks, play with them- whatever they need. I love staying in-home with animals (including overnight). I can adapt to their schedule and they’re able to be comfortable in their own home.

Information Emily G. would like to know about your pet

It’s important to know facts such as feeding times and walk times but I also want to know what makes your dog happy and what I can do to make them comfortable!

A typical day

Of course my top priority is tailoring an experience to each specific pup(s). I’m happy to play outside, fetch, or play inside games. I am also happy to cuddle with dogs who prefer attention over physical stimulation. Whatever your dog needs, I can adapt to their needs.

Pet care experience

I’ve been around animals my entire life and am a huge animal lover. My rescue Sophie passed away in early 2021 so I don’t have any animals in my home currently. Fur babies deserve all the love and kindness in the world and I’m here to provide that for them. I’ll take care of your baby like they’re my own. I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I love all animals including cats! I’m LGBTQ+ friendly and am fully vaccinated! :)

I honestly cannot recommend Emily enough. After my dog Max was attacked, I was extremely anxious about leaving him with anyone—but from the very first moment, she completely put my mind at ease. Emily took such incredible care of him during a time when he truly needed extra attention, patience, and love. Emily kept me constantly updated with photos and messages, which was absolutely amazing and meant a lot to me, having to deal with work and other stuff at the same time as having a sick dog. Emily reassured me that he was safe, comfortable, and in the best hands. What stood out the most is how quickly Max bonded with her. He is usually very selective and doesn’t warm up to people easily, but he loved her from the moment they met—even allowed her to clean his wounds, which is nit an easy process at all!! I’m beyond grateful for the way she looked after him during such a stressful time. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly amazing with dogs, Emily is the one. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to leave Max with her again.

If you want someone to love and care for your dog as much as you, then Emily is your girl. Our puppy is always SO excited to see her and, as a result, we feel so comfortable leaving our dog in Emily’s care.

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.
