Information Emily K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or if they don’t get along with other dogs. I am open to any dog, just have to know all the facts to keep them and others safe.

A typical day

I love to go to the beach, long walks, hike, and play catch. Being so close to the park there are tons of dogs in the evening for your furry friend to play with.

Dog Lover Looking for Furry Friends

Pet care experience

Hi everyone! I’ve been living in the Bay Area for the past four years, with the last two spent in beautiful Tam Valley. I am an avid runner, hiker and yogi! I am currently in graduate school and work from home. While I don’t currently have a pup of my own, I absolutely love spending time with dogs and would be thrilled to help care for yours! I grew up around dogs and have always had a soft spot for them. Whether I’m out walking or running errands, I can’t help but stop to say hi to every pup I pass. I’m all about giving dogs the love, attention, and activity they need, whether that means long walks, hikes, park playtime, or just some quality companionship. I have my own car, so transportation is easy, and I’m very familiar with dog-friendly spots around Marin and San Francisco. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and treat your dog like one of my own. If you're looking for a caring, responsible sitter or walker, I’d love to connect! Feel free to message me with any questions, I’m happy to chat or provide references. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Emily was wonderful with our dog! She watched him for 4 nights and sent daily photos and updates while we were out of town. She was also excellent with communication when scheduling and was extremely flexible with a last minute change to the schedule.

Emily did a wonderful job walking our dog Indie. She took the time get to know our dog in advance and was very punctual and playful with our dog. Recommended

Emily took amazing care of our dog — totally spoiled her and she looked so happy in all the photo updates we got. On top of that Emily is super friendly, a good communicator, prompt, and punctual.

Emily took great care of our pup, Atom, at our home. She took him for long walks at different locations each day, including a beach outing (with advance permission) and shared photos throughout our trip. She followed the instructions that we provided for dog and home care, and asked questions as needed. I felt comfortable that Atom was well cared for and highly recommend Emily. Admittedly, we were cautious to leave Atom with a pet sitter for the first time and had a great first experience with Rover, thanks Emily!
