Safety, trust & environment

I strive to bring the same level of care I provide to my own cat to every cat I help take care of. This includes routine meals, affection, playtime. My cat thrives off routine and I bring that same attentiveness to each cat I take care of.

Information Emily M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your cat has any special needs at all. I have experience with oral medications, special feedings, and young kittens. Additionally, let me know what your cats favorite toys and activities are!

A typical day

When working with cats, I always make sure activities are on their terms. Additionally, I like to create routine to make them as comfortable as possible. With cats this includes feedings, cleaning up and plenty of time for play and affection.

Cat care experience

I started taking care of my neighbors cats when I was 12 years old. Since then my experience has grown to include dozens of cats I’ve cared for ranging from kittens to senior.

Emily was so amazing! She brought out the best in my shy cat while I was away. Thank you Emily!

I absolutely loved how caring Emily was with my cat Hobbes. He can be slow to warm up to new people, but he clearly felt safe and loved with Emily with away. Thank you!

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.
