Dog & Cat Foster, vet assistant exp

Pet care experience

*Disclaimer* I have 2 small children and 4 cats in my home. Your pup MUST be trained and gentle enough to be around them. I have been caring for other's pets for 14 years. Friends and family have relied on me to care lovingly for their pets. I have fostered several dogs and cats through those years as well. I shadowed for my vet as a child and teenager until I was old enough to work for her as a receptionist and assistant. I have had many animals myself throughout my life, many of which required nurturing back to health or continuous medication administration.

Emily was a terrific host for our dog and adopted her as part of the family. Our dog got along fine with her cats and liked being the only dog in the home. Emily is experienced with animals and knows how to control dogs and understands their behavior, while being very easy going and loving with them. She’s a gem!

Emily was great to work with and very professional and accommodating. I highly recommend her and will use her as a cat sitter in the future.

This was our first time using Rover. I was nervous leaving our Pepper with a stranger but Emily was fantastic. She was quick to respond if I asked how Pepper was doing. She went above and beyond with making my nervous dog feel comfortable and happy. Pepper seemed completely peaceful when we picked her up. I would definitely use Emily again!!!
