Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know the nitty gritty on if your pet has any special needs, aggressive tendencies, or specific behaviors. Communication is clarity and clarity is kindness!

A typical day

I love to engage with pets in whatever way they find comfortable / exciting- going for a run, playing fetch, taking time to check out all the new smells in the neighborhood, or just spending some quality time together.

Pet care experience

I do need the money, but I’m honestly on here just because I miss walking dogs, and really enjoy spending time with animals in general. I grew up with cats and dogs and now have two cats of my own. I enjoy all aspects of pet care and look forward to assisting with yours!

Emily showed us not only how much she cares for our boy Odin, but also that she is rooted in years of experience! Odin is a bit barky to new people and Emily was able to handle the situation with grace - so much so, that she had him at her feet at the end of the visit! She is prompt in all her communication. And being so kind to our whole family was so very appreciated. I would recommend Emily to any dog parent wanting whole, compassionate, and reliable care. 10/10 will definitely book again!!!

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.
