Pet care experience

Spoiled Pets Welcome Here!

I’ve been a professional pet caregiver for over 5 years, with experience caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with medication administration and specialized care, including puppies, senior pets, and pets with medical conditions such as epilepsy. Pet care is truly my passion, and I take pride in treating every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I own my own pet care company (“Paws On” Pet Sitting) along with working with Wag! and Rover. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a specific routine, or just lots of love while you’re away, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities! I have extensive experience with house sitting and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment while their family is away. I’m happy to maintain your pet’s normal routine and provide the enrichment they’re accustomed to, including walks, indoor playtime, outdoor activities, and plenty of attention. I also have experience with dog training and can reinforce your existing commands, boundaries, and training routine while you’re away. In addition to pet sitting, “Paws On” Pet Sitting offers dog training and AKC evaluations upon request. I take caring for both your pets and your home seriously, and I’m always happy to discuss routines, special instructions, safety concerns, or anything else that will help you feel comfortable while you’re away! A Few Important Notes! • I do not typically provide continuous/hourly care outside of overnight stays. Extended or 24/7 care may be available upon request for an additional hourly rate. • All services require a pet-care agreement to be signed prior to booking. • Complimentary meet & greets are currently offered for vacation-care bookings, including house sitting and bookings with multiple drop-in visits. If you’d like a meet & greet before a single drop-in or walk, you’re welcome to book an additional drop-in for your preferred meeting time. • I’m currently unable to provide care for diabetic cats. Diabetic dogs are welcome! 😊

Emily was a godsend during our vacation in Ammon, ID. She was extremely flexible to our changing schedule, adapted to our dog’s needs depending upon timing and weather, and is an excellent communicator. She and her business partner are truly top notch and gave us peace of mind that our pup was in great hands. Thank you, Emily! I wish you lived near me and I would hire you all the time!

Emily is fantastic! Great communication and she's definitely tiring out our younger, more hyper, fur baby! I'd recommend her any time!!

Schedule

My schedule is flexible and revolves around pet care! I typically have walks and drop-in visits scheduled throughout the day, so while I don’t currently offer 24/7 or constant care, I’m happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s normal routine and any additional needs whenever possible. Because I may need to step out for other scheduled visits, I do require that pets in my care are comfortable being left alone for at least 6 hours at a time. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s schedule beforehand to make sure we’re a great fit!

Before providing care, I like to make sure I have everything I need to keep your pets happy, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible! Prior to your booking, you’ll receive a pet care agreement and a short questionnaire about your pet(s), their routine, and your home to complete. This gives you an opportunity to share important details such as feeding schedules, medications, behavioral quirks, favorite activities, household instructions, emergency contacts, and anything else you’d like me to know. The more I know about your pets and their normal routine, the more comfortable I can make their time with me!
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.
