Safety, trust & environment

I work to ensure that the pets are comfortable with my presence. If the pets need to be crated or kept in a certain area of your home, I will make sure it happens. I am also mindful to always leave spaces that I use either the same as or cleaner than I found them.

Information Emily P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your cat and or dog has any special needs or preferences ahead of time so I can provide the best experience possible.

A typical day

I typically enjoy long walks. If your dog is friendly with other dogs and people, I’d be happy to take them to a dog park. I am also happy to play catch, fetch, or teach your dog basic tricks.

A thoughtful neighborhood petsitter

Pet care experience

I love animals and have grown up with both cats and dogs. My neighbors, friends, and family have all had me walk, feed, bathe, play with, and clean up after their furry friends. I have experience providing care, medication, and first aid to week-old kittens, injured cats, and senior dogs with health conditions. I have trained both dogs and cats to do tricks like sit, spin, shake, and up. I have a deep love for all creatures on this planet and prioritize respect and consent in my relationships with them.

Emily did such a great job taking care of our dog. She gave is regular updates and did a great job giving his medications. I was able to relax on vacation because she was there.

Murray is always so happy to see Emily! We couldn’t ask for a better rover. She is so communicative, reliable, and trustworthy. We look forward to using Emily again in the future!

Emily was amazing watching our dog, Murray! She was attentive, communicative, respectful to our home, and provided exceptional care. We appreciated the daily photos we received from her while we were on our trip. We couldn’t be happier with Emily and we are excited to use her again in the future! I highly recommend entrusting her to watch over your furry loved ones.

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.
