Availability
I’m home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection throughout the day. My own dog, Ollie, loves making new friends, and we stick to a structured routine with multiple walks, enrichment activities, and lots of cuddle time. I maintain a clean, safe environment and can follow your dog’s regular schedule, dietary needs, medications, and any special instructions.

Safety, trust & environment
I always make sure to have a clean environment so the dogs can’t get into anything that would be harmful to them. They will get at least 4 walks a day and one trip to the fenced in dog park behind my complex if weather permits.
Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet
If your dog has anything specific they need just let me know and I will gladly make sure it happens! If they have food aggression or destructive tendencies under certain circumstances just let me know. As long as there is a way to prevent it we will be all good. I used rover A LOT when I worked full time and I know what it feels like to have to leave your dog with someone all day. My dog struggles with separation anxiety and so I had to let people know what things to do to minimize that. For my dog it’s exercise and making sure he’s gone to the bathroom. So if your dog has anything that needs special care Let me know. Because my dog has separation anxiety so I don’t like to leave my dog alone at home for more than a few hours so your dog also won’t be alone for more than a few hours. If your dog isn’t potty trained I just ask that you provide pee pad's to make it easier to clean up. If you have a routine you would like me to stick to just send it in a text to I can make sure I follow it.
A typical day
Most day my dog eats at 7am and again at 5pm. If this isn’t your preferred schedule just let me know. One thing I also enjoy doing is just basic dog training to get some energy out of their system. When there’s not much going on the dogs are welcome to lounge on my couch and look out the window (my dogs favorite thing to do)

Loving Care You Can Trust 🐾
Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Emily, and dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a family where our dogs were truly family members, and my first job at 11 years old was walking my neighbors’ dogs. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—including puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need medication or extra attention. As a Rover customer myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. That’s why I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away.
Reviews
Emily was WONDERFUL with Ollie!!! She sent lots of updates, pictures and videos. It was reassuring to know he was happy and being so well taken care of. Emily will be my first and only choice when I have to leave Ollie in the future.
Best dog sitter! I loved all the pictures and videos she sent! I knew my dog Max was having a good time with her and her dog. Max was completely exhausted when I brought him home which was perfect! Will definitely choose her to watch my dog again.
Emily is so amazing at taking care of my dog River! I always feel safe leaving my dog with her! She sends lots of updates with pictures which helps put my mind at ease. She took my dog to go play outside everyday and took videos of her dog and River playing outside. I will continue to leave my dog with Emily anytime I go out of town! 🩷
I cannot more highly recommend Emily! She is wonderful with dogs and treats them like part of her family. She has cared for my dog Wrigley and I never have to worry when he is with her. She is attentive to all of his needs and he gets along great with her dog Ollie.
