About Emily K.
Communication
Cat skills
Safety, trust & environment
As a school psychologist, I know how important communication is and I aim to be as responsive with your four-legged family members as I am with the kids I work with.
Information Emily K. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special medical or feeding needs, or any specific hiding places that may not be obvious. I am happy to dispose of litter in any outside receptacles if you let me know.
A typical day
I love getting to know different pets and their unique personalities and preferences. I always try to entice the pets I sit in some play and movement, but I am happy to just chill with more low-energy pets. My phone is full of animal photos.

Cats make up 80% of my personality
Cat care experience
I grew up with a family cat and regularly cared for cats in my neighborhood when their owners went on vacation. I adopted my cat Amelia in 2017. As the owner of a cat with her own fickle personality, I know that cats like to approach people on their own terms. I love cats who play and cats who ignore me for the whole visit. I have been active on Rover since 2018 and have some experience administering oral medication and pills.
Reviews
Emily has cat-sit for me a couple times now and I’m so glad to have found her. She is extremely reliable and you can tell she cares. She does a nice job of providing updates/pictures which always gives me peace of mind when I’m away. I 100% recommend her!
Thank you for taking care of Dre while we were away! We greatly appreciate your consistently and pictures. :)
Took great care of my cat and sent nice detailed check ins during visits!
Emily did a great job with my kitty! Followed my instructions and no issues. Would use her again for sure!
