Pet care experience
Ready to love your furbaby!
Hi there, I’m your pet’s new best friend! Whether your buddy barks, meows, squeaks, slithers, swims, or hops—I’ve got you covered! I have hands-on experience with animals of all shapes, sizes, and species, from playful pups and curious cats to slithery snakes, chirpy birds, and swimming beauties. I specialize in loving care for young and energetic, elderly, disabled, and even special-needs pets—they all have a soft spot in my heart and a warm place on my lap (or tank-side chats, if they’re aquatic). With me, your pet will get plenty of snuggles, scritches, and silly conversations (yes, I talk to animals like they’re royalty… because let's face it, they are 😆) Every pet in my care gets treated like royalty and all the love they can handle! Whether your pet needs a cozy cuddle session, a slow stroll, or just someone to hang out with and keep them company, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved and a little bit spoiled. Let me know how I can help give your pet the five-star treatment they deserve while you're away!

Safety, trust & environment
**UPDATE: My home is currently being renovated inside so I am only offering pet sitting outside my home but I will be offering sitting at my home again soon! :)** In my home, pets get the VIP treatment! I have a very large, privacy-fenced yard that's perfect for safe play, zoomies, and sunbathing. I live just one house up from the river, with a beautiful hiking trail nearby—perfect for nature walks if your pup enjoys a bit of adventure! Whether your pet is a couch potato, a trail explorer, or somewhere in between, I tailor their care to match their personality and comfort level. I stick to their routine as closely as possible and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved—whether that means snuggling on the couch, tossing a ball in the yard, or strolling by the river. In your home, I bring the same level of care and attention. I respect your space, follow your instructions to the letter, and do my best to keep your pet’s routine consistent. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels secure, happy, and like they’re right at home—wherever they are!
Ratings and reviews
Emily was great! She kept us updated on how our animals were doing and we came back to our house cleaner than we left it! Both our dog and cat were happy and healthy when we got home. We’ll definitely be using her again!
WHAT A GEM!! I can honestly say I will not be booking any other Rover again as long as Emily is available. She was by far the best Rover we have ever had house sit our dogs. She came over with a personalized check listed with everything under the sun on the list. Sent time stamped pictures multiple times a day and gave our dogs the best care we could’ve asked for. If you need a Rover book Emily! She will not disappoint!!!
Emily is absolutely amazing and a life saver when it comes to my accident prone lab pup! She is also very caring and treats my girl like her own :) My girl is always tired when she gets home and I can tell by the pictures and videos I get she really enjoys her time. I definitely recommend her for anyone who needs a compassionate animal lover who will become your pets new best friend!
I have known Emily since she was very young. She has always had an incredibly strong, loving and caring attitude towards animals. I know she has owned quite a few herself over the years but she has watched the family's pets a few times as well. She took care of my cat once when I had to have surgery done and couldn't get around. She was extremely professional about it and of coarse did an excellent job. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants someone to love and care for your animals like they were her own.

Schedule
Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine—it honestly doesn’t feel like “work” to me because I love being around animals so much! I structure my days to make sure I have plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and cuddle sessions. Whether it’s a daily drop-in, an overnight stay, or a midday walk, I prioritize giving each pet my full attention and care. I’m flexible and reliable, and I’m used to adjusting my schedule to meet the unique needs of every pet I care for!
