Proud cat, reptile, and bird mom!
Pet care experience
I was born into a family that has never been without a dog and a cat (at minimum), so I've spent my entire life around animals, personally and professionally. I've worked in zoos, shelters, rescues, and even trained dogs for a time. I've expanded my experience to include a wide variety of cat and dog breeds, but also birds, snakes, and lizards too! It's that 20+ years of experience caring for domestics, exotics, and medically complex animals that I will be bringing to care for your furry, scaly or feathery babies! I have experience giving a wide variety of medications, including Sub-Q fluids, shots, and even pilling cats and dogs if necessary, so if you have an animal that needs special attention, I'm your gal! I personally have a medically complex cat, so I understand the dread of trying to find someone not just willing to care for them while you're away, but someone who can competently administer their medications. I promise to give your pets the same gentle and experienced touch when dealing with those tough meds as I give my own cat.
Reviews
Emily is amazing!!! She stepped in and helped me out in a very stressful time with my fur child. She was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, kind and caring. If ever I need help in the future, she is the first person I am reaching out to.
Emily was SO wonderful!! She left detailed reports after each visit and was so attentive and loving to our shy and skittish cat. Thank you SO much Emily, you are amazing! 🤩
This was my first time using Rover, and now I want to use Emily every single time I need a cat sitter! She was amazing and has such a wealth of knowledge about taking care of animals. My two cats are very shy, and they trusted her enough to be playful and goofy during her visits. She also sent us incredibly detailed daily updates about how they were doing (with pictures!!), which helped so much with my anxiety about leaving them at home. Overall, it was the best experience I could have ever asked for with my girls, and I would literally give her a 1,000-star rating if it was possible!
Emily stepped in to care for my cats when sitters I have previously used were unavailable. My cats are older and can be complicated so it's always a relief to find someone who can make sure they get the medicine and attention they need.

Safety, trust & environment
I can easily take your dogs (or cat!) for a walk in your neighborhood, or take them to a local dog park as my vehicle can accommodate large or small dogs. Please let me know if they have a favorite place to go! I'm also perfectly happy playing with a laser pointer in your home with your feline or playing in your backyard where your pup knows all the best places to hang out.
Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet
Please send along as much information about your dog as you can; whether that's behaviors, habits, medical/dietary needs, favorite toys, or scariest sounds...the more information I have about your pet, the better experience I can provide them in your absence.
A typical day
Not only can I provide fun walks where we can explore all kinds of new smells ans sights, but I'm also experienced at providing (and leaving) fun enrichment for your pet to work on. We can also work on any existing behaviors and maybe come up with some new ones to show Mom and Dad when they get back!
