Emily is the best. I reached out to her at the last minute when my regular walker and I had a miscommunication and I did not have coverage. She was warm and friendly and a great communicator. Louis really enjoyed having her and I highly recommend.

Emily was communicative, caring and a great help walking our dog while we were away. We’re so grateful for her consistent and responsive support!

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.
