Experienced, caring dog walker

Pet care experience

I am an experienced, caring, and responsible dog walker and dog lover! I grew up with golden retrievers and have dog sat and walked a variety of dogs over the past 12 years. These dogs include a red heeler, a border collie mix, a pitbull mix, a poodle, a dachshund, and plenty of Labrador retrievers and goldens (my favorite). I have experience with anxious dogs, special needs and senior dogs, as well as puppies and high energy dogs who require a lot of exercise. I am happy to provide references! I work remotely and have availability on many weekdays midday or in the afternoon. I am willing to come to your home to pick your dog up for walks or hikes. I am very active and love walking, running, hiking, biking, and playing frisbee and fetch. I look forward to hearing from you!

Emily was such a pleasure! She was punctual and enthusiastic and took personal interest in our dog Shawnee as if she were her own loved one. We were very comfortable leaving Shawnee in Emily’s care. We would give her 100 stars if we could!

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.
