Paws-itively Perfect Pet Care

With over a decade of hands-on experience, including extensive work at a rescue barn and shadowing at a veterinary hospital throughout my life, I bring a wealth of knowledge in caring for a variety of beloved pets. My expertise spans from horses to dogs, cats, and even exotic reptiles and birds. Since the age of 10, I have been walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for neighbors' and friends' pets. These responsibilities have fostered a deep understanding of their unique needs and preferences. When pets are with me, their comfort and needs come first, and I ensure to care for them in the best way possible.

Safety, trust & environment

At home, I share my life with two dogs and a cat, all of whom enjoy the spacious comfort of our expansive backyard and the security of being crate trained. This personal connection fuels my passion for ensuring every pet under my care receives not just attention, but genuine affection and tailored care to keep them happy, healthy, and content.

I have know Emily for 7 years and there’s nobody I would trust more with my animals. She is loving and hardworking, I know she will always go above and beyond. I have a cat and a snake, both of which she has taken care of on multiple occasions. She and I have worked pet sitting jobs together taking care of dogs and cats and she also spends a ton of time taking care of horses.

Emily is an amazing pet sitter; she takes extreme care to knowing each detail about the pets she takes care of. Her genuine affection for animals is shown in every interaction making for a very safe and comforting environment. Beyond her compassionate care, Emily is extremely reliable and professional and I highly recommend her.

Emily is a loving and responsible caregiver. She has taken care of my two dogs many times in the past as well as many of our friend's animals when they go on vacation. She has taken care of dogs, cats, horses, chickens, lizards, turtles, and ferrets. I recommend her without reservation and can say your pets will be in good hands!

Let me know your pet’s daily routines, dietary preferences, any medical needs or medications, behavioral quirks, and their favorite toys or activities. Understanding these details helps ensure I can provide the best care and make their time away from you as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I would also love the number for their veterinarian.
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.
