Pet care experience

Safe, Calm, and Caring Pet Sitter

I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for them isn’t a hobby for me, it’s just part of who I am. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, ducks, rabbits, and even rats, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, needs, and routines. I currently have two dogs and a cat who are truly treated like my children. I’m very intentional about species appropriate food, daily movement and exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of affection. What sets me apart is that I don’t take a one size fits all approach. I respect each pet’s unique needs, preferences, and boundaries, whether that means extra playtime, a calm companion for seniors, or patience with shy or anxious pets. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first.

Loves our dog like her own! He’s a puppy and she has done a great job with all of the extra needs that come with puppyhood. Would highly recommend!

Emily has watched my dog Indy a handful of times now, and I couldn’t ask for anyone better. She is responsible, attentive, and provides so many photos and updates which gives me peace of mind knowing Indy is being well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy!

Emily is very sweet, loving, and caring, not only towards humans, but even more towards 4 legged friends. She is extremely responsible with her own animals, 2 dogs and a cat which were all adopted by her. She always makes sure they are healthy, well fed with the best quality food, and that they are safe and comfortable in a clean and ample environment. My Chihuahua loves her! I highly recommend Emily as a pet caregiver, your pets would be in the best hands with quality love and care from the heart, just like part of the family!

Emily is a lover of animals. She has grown up riding horses, having her own small flock of ducks to care for and numerous dogs and cats. Her love for her pets translates into love and compassion for all pets. I highly recommend Emily to all pet parents, she is well qualified, listens well and takes direction well. Emily will be an asset for Rover.com.

Emily is one of the most caring, responsible, and attentive people I know, especially when it comes to animals. She has always had a natural connection with pets and treats them as if they were her own. Whether it’s making sure they feel safe and comfortable, sticking to routines, or giving them plenty of love and attention, Emily takes pet care seriously. She’s dependable, calm under pressure, and very thoughtful about each pet’s individual needs and personality. I would trust her without hesitation to care for my pets, and I know any pet parent who works with her will feel confident knowing their animals are in kind, capable hands. She comes highly recommended!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I work full time remotely, which means I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care. My schedule is flexible, allowing for regular walks, playtime, feeding, and check ins rather than long stretches alone. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so your pet will have consistent companionship and a calm, attentive environment.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding instructions, exercise, medications if needed, and any household rules. I take time to understand a pet’s personality and environment so they feel secure and respected in their own space. In my home or yours, I keep a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment and never leave pets unsupervised for long periods. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and quick to notice changes in behavior or routine. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel confident and at ease while they’re apart.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day is centered around keeping pets happy, comfortable, and engaged. We start with feeding and outdoor time, followed by walks, playtime, or enrichment activities that match each pet’s energy level. I love incorporating sniff walks, gentle games, and interactive play to keep pets both mentally and physically stimulated.

Before caring for a pet, I like to understand their routine, personality, and any specific needs. This includes feeding instructions, exercise level, medications or health concerns, and any behavioral quirks or triggers. I also ask about how they do with new people, other animals, and changes in routine. Knowing what makes a pet feel comfortable (and what stresses them) helps me provide safe, consistent care and keeps their experience as smooth and low-stress as possible.
