Pet care experience

Dog Lover Providing Excellent Care

Interacting with animals has always been the highlight of my day. I have a decade of professional experience with pet care, primarily dogs and cats, but small animals and exotics as well. I have a beloved senior dog and a giant day gecko at home, but I grew up around a large range of animals, including dogs, birds, lizards, frogs, rodents and sugar gliders. I also have a bachelor's degree in biology with a particular interest in animals and plants. As a result, I have the experience, knowledge and passion to provide the high-quality care you're looking for. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means that I am able to devote plenty of time and attention to your animals. I will keep in touch with you while your precious pets are under my care, so you won't have to worry about their safety and comfort. I am happy to provide detailed updates and photos of the time they spend with me. I would love an opportunity to work with your family!

Emily makes days like this possible for me. I was on the run from 7:30’- 4:00 and needed drop in help so I didn’t have to run home. It takes a load off my shoulders to know Emily can step in!

Emily was awesome! She sent cute pictures and was very communicative. If there was anything she was unsure of she was not afraid to ask. I’m very pleased with my experience using Rover and I’m so glad I found Emily!

Emily was lovely! Came the day before to learn the feeding and medications. Sent pictures as well as texts letting me know how the girls were doing. It was all such a comfort since it was the first time having someone care for them in my home.

Emily was absolutely incredible. She took such thoughtful, attentive care of our girls. Throughout our entire trip, she went above and beyond, asking for clarification when needed, sending regular updates, and giving us complete peace of mind. When our flight home was delayed, she didn’t hesitate to stay flexible and make sure the girls were comfortable and cared for. Highly recommend her to anyone.

Emily was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! She was reliable, communicative, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was clear my pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I could tell she genuinely loves animals and treated them like her own. I came home to happy dogs and a stress-free experience. I would highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

I'm between jobs right now, so I'm able to provide even more time for your pets. When I do find my next job, I will be sure to give advance notice to any clients potentially affected by the change in addition to updating my profile.

Emily can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I am uncomfortable walking very large dogs (90+ pounds) on a leash, because I am not strong enough to stop them from getting away if they got frightened or overexcited. However, I am happy to care for dogs of any size in a closed environment, like indoors or a fenced yard.
