Safety, trust & environment
At this time I am unable to care for pets in my home as we have 2 cats that have never even met another animal.
Information Emily R. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your fur baby has any special needs or preferences to help them get comfortable with a new friend. I am happy to try any and everything to help put them at ease.
A typical day
For cats I have a magic orange shoelace that I take with me that seems to have won over all but 1 feline friend I've met so far. I'm also patient with cats, and will let them determine how much interaction we will have. Living in Streeterville I love walking dogs over Polk Bros Park, Milton Olive Park, and around the Ogden River slip area. I also love the dog park, I have 2 small balls that I take for the little ones to be able to play fetch with!

Dog lover with Cats!
Pet care experience
As noted in the headline, I currently have 2 cats, and have had cats my whole life. While I do love cats, I have to get my dog fix through others. I started with Rover during Covid and have absolutely loved making so many new 4-legged friends! I also currently volunteer with various animal transport rescues that transport animals between shelters and fosters to help reduce the population in kill shelters. So I have experience with walking many types of dogs and it also seems that most dogs and cats take to me very quickly. I also think I am great at getting excellent photos of your fur-babies! I would love to help take care of your fur babies if/when you need it!
Reviews


Emily was INCREDIBLE!!!! She was so loving to my dog and cat, sent amazing updates and pictures ♥️, and went above and beyond to stay and help out when my return flight went through delays and cancellations. I cannot thank her enough and will be using her again next time I leave town!!!


Emily did an amazing job house sitting and watching our 2 kitties! She was so accommodating to our cats’ needs, catering to both a sassy adult and crazy kitten. She even dealt with some chaos at the place because of our contractors, and was super flexible and responsive to everything. I’d highly recommend Emily.

Emily is the absolute best!!

It’s so nice being able to trust that my senior cat is safe and loved when Emily watches him. I’m a very anxious pet-owner as I’m sure we all are when leaving our pets, and I know I can always count on Emily. My cat loves her too!
