Highlights
Pet care experience
Boarding availability!
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!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Responsible, friendly, and great communication!
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.

Emily was very easy to coordinate with and took great care of our dog while we were away for a long weekend.

Schedule
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!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide everything they need, food & water of course, medications if needed & on schedule, snuggles & walks & playtime & pets! My partner 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!
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.
