Availability
I’m available to host in my home, especially because I work from home 4 days a week. If I’ve marked myself available on the weekend, it means I’ll be local, don’t have any big plans, and can hang with your dog quite a bit, offer daily walks, and I can provide potty breaks every 4-6 hours (usually more frequently). I can provide one longer walk per day, as well as potty breaks throughout the day and evening. I will utilize my schedule’s flexibility as much as I can to care for your pets as closely to their normal routine as possible!

About Emily M.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide everything they need, food & water of course, medications if needed & on schedule, snuggles & walks & playtime & pets! My roommate is also SO great with dogs, and will give them love too. On the weekends we often have a friend or two stopping in, so if your dog loves people, they’ll have plenty of attention!
Home
Information Emily M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any behaviors I should know about. It’s important for me to know if your dog is calm when passing by other dogs on the street, and if they are friendly towards all humans or if introductions need to be slow or particular
A typical day
I love to go for walks with dogs, around town, or on a nice trail if they’re okay with car rides. If walks aren’t their thing, hanging out with such good company is great too.

Pet care experience
I cared for my family’s lab until she was 15, giving me knowledge and experience with senior dogs. I have always leaped at the chance to dog and cat sit for friends, and they have continued to trust me with their furry friends. I fostered a sweet yet challenging chihuahua full time for 3 months in 2020, and learned I have good instincts when it comes to behavioral training. I also have some experience caring for a dog with a neurological condition and challenges with balance and stability. I lived with and helped care for a cat for 2 years. My roommate’s dog had high anxiety and was slow to trust, and I worked very well with him, too. I have great reviews on and off Rover and have had a great time caring for pets I’ve connected with through Rover so far! I don’t have any other pets. I work full time from home 4 days a week & 1 day a week in an office. On those 4 days from home and on the weekends, I’m available to host dogs in my home!
Reviews

I highly recommend Emily, who was very conscientious and responsive. I definitely plan to have her watch Maisie again.

Emily was fantastic! She was communicative at every step of the way and took great care of our pup Milo. We will definitely be working with her again!

Such a lifesaver to find a great sitter for Finny since our move to Portland! Would highly recommend Emily!!!

Emily was great with our dog Sherman for the weekend! She was communicative and gave him great care.
