Safety, trust & environment

I'm a responsible caretaker of both dogs and homes. I try to be very thoughtful about following instructions and meeting your needs as clients so you can feel safe and comfortable. I know it's never easy leaving your baby with a stranger, so I'm happy to keep in regular communication while I'm taking care of your pets!

Information Emily L. would like to know about your pet

Knowing important info about your dog will help me adjust my care for their specific needs. I'd love to be informed about what kinds of things stress them out, how they react to different situations, any behavior or health issues to keep an eye on. I'd also love to know their favorite spots in the neighborhood or their favorite activities!

A typical day

I usually let the animals set the pace for our day! With more energetic dogs, I love hanging out outside in nature, or maybe at a dog park. But I also love to cuddle or take a nap with a more chill dog.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Emily! I grew up with animals, but I currently don't have any of my own, so I'm always looking to fill that pet-sized hole in my heart. I'm great with dogs and I'm always ready to match different energy levels and needs. I'm responsible and a good communicator, and I'll do my best to give you all the reassurance you need that your babies are safe with me.

Emily is amazing. My dog can be extremely stubborn when she doesn’t want to go out but Emily was undeterred. Winnie also hates thunderstorms and there were several while Emily was watching her and Emily was so attentive to keeping Winnie calm during the storms. Emily also sent great photos and regular updates. I felt super at ease knowing Winnie was in Emily’s hands!

Emily was incredible staying at our house to watch our dog for 4 nights. She was communicative, sending lots of photos and plenty of updates throughout her stay. She left our home exactly the way she found it. Highly recommend Emily for your next overnight need!

Emily was an amazing sitter for Lizzy. She was super responsive, left me tons of adorable pictures of Lizzy, and was very flexible and willing to work around my chaotic schedule. 10/10 would book with Emily again in the future.

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.
