I am a pet lover who can provide walks, litter box cleaning, feeding, and snuggles if asked for the pet who is missing his or her owner!

Information Emily N. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know most importantly how your pet reacts to strangers (are they aggressive, shy, etc.)? If an introduction is needed prior to me coming alone, I am happy to accommodate this!

A typical day

I love any games that require stimulation and intelligence! One of my favorites is the treat toys, as well as fetch (for dogs) and lasers (for cats).

Animal lover and human nurse

Pet care experience

Hi, there! I am a human nurse and former vet assistant looking to help you with your in-home pet sitting needs. I currently work in research, and I have experience with small animals (cats, dogs, fish, birds, hamsters, etc.). Note as of 05/22/2026: Please be mindful that I had a poor experience recently with a new client and that is why I am rated 4.2. I previously had only 5 stars. While Rover was able to remove the written review from the client, they are unable to fix my star rating. I am a professional who works with calm pets and will not respond to inappropriate requests. Thank you.

Emily was beyond fantastic! Really professional and thorough! She took such good care of Baxter and our house while we were gone. Was always in touch with updates and pictures, and went above and beyond for us! 11/10 would definitely recommend!

Meeting Emily was a relief after our other pet sitter fell through in the days leading up to our trip. Emily was willing to do a last minute meet and greet and asked thoughtful questions about caring for our dogs and cats. She was communicative and our pets seemed to enjoy her presence. Would definitely recommend her!

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.
