Caring for Land and Sea Puppies :3

Hi! Thanks so much for checking out my profile :3 I am so excited to bring exceptional care and love to your pets while you are away! I am currently offering house sitting services and drop-in sitting services for cats, dogs, and whatever other animals you have in your home, as well as dog walking services. I am a full-time intern with a marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation organization, so contact me for more details about my booking availability. Before returning to school to earn my Master's degree, I worked for four years as an Animal Care and Adoptions Specialist for an animal shelter called Bideawee on Long Island in New York and offered pet-sitting services to my community since I was 14 years old. Working in rescue, no need is too great or too extreme, and I love speaking with my clients about their animal’s specific needs to ensure that they receive the quality care they require. Do not hesitate to reach out with concerns about any variety of medical and behavioral needs, including neonate/puppies/kittens, senior animals, reactive/behaviorally challenging animals, FIV/FeLV+ cats, or animals with medication - whatever you need, trust that I’ll be happy to provide! I have also been pet-sitting since I was 14 years old. In addition to my 10 years of professional experience with domestic pets, I also have had pets my whole life. I have two wonderful dogs named Dottie and Enzo, a beautiful senior cat named Samantha, and a kitten named Marie. I also have a snail and a leopard gecko, as well as all of my seal friends at the rehab center! Thank you for trusting me with the care of your precious pets! I am excited to welcome your furry, feathery, and scaly friends into my extended animal family!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My top priority is providing your pets with safe, thorough care. I understand that strangers can be stressful for pets. I am happy to do consultations with you and your pet before our scheduled service so that your pet can become accustomed to me and we can discuss all of their necessary care to ensure they receive all that they need while I am with them.

Emily was excellent with my dog reactive Aussie Callie. So thankful to have someone trustworthy to look after her while I am at work.

Emily was amazing with our dogs and our home! Our girl dog is very shy and hesitant with a lot of people but she took right to Emily the first day! She took great care of both our dogs and sent us photo and text updates, which made us feel at ease they were in great hands! We look forward to having her stay with our pups for our future sitting needs!!

Schedule

I am a full-time intern, but my schedule is a little unconventional. I work 12-hour shifts during the day as well as occasional short evenings shifts. When house-sitting, your home is my home base for breaks, evenings, and off-days! When dog walking or dropping in, I plan my visits around my work schedule.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Emily can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- General care schedule (feeding times and amounts, treating schedule, walk/potty break schedules) - Administered medication amounts and schedules - Any allergies, dietary restrictions, exercise restrictions, or medical conditions/special needs - General idea of behavior/temperament. Triggers and off-limits activities/actions for reactive, fearful, or otherwise difficult pets is also always helpful.
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.
