Lifelong Animal Enthusiast
Pet care experience
I grew up with two dogs, a cat, and multiple aquatic animals, so I have lifelong experience loving and training pets. Since 2019, I have watched over 15 different pets (through Rover and other apps), almost all of which were repeat customers. From 10 pounds to 100 pounds, young to old, cats or dogs, I have experience and I love doing it!
Reviews
I highly recommend Emily. I needed a sitter to look after my apartment and high needs cat for three weeks, as well as coordinate a daily visit from a vet tech and Emily was great. She was super easy to deal with, had wonderful communication and was very reliable. I will definitely ask Emily to house sit again when needed.
Emily was super easy to work with and was amazing with our dog! Kept us updated while we were gone and sent plenty of photos of our happy dog! Definitely going to use Emily again
Emily is amazing and very responsible !
Emily is a fantastic sitter, and I highly recommend her to anyone! I will certainly be booking with her again, as my new go-to sitter for my Great Pyrenees, Daisy! From the minute we reserved a weekend with Emily, she was very prompt and communicative about the boarding process. She was so eager to make our dog, who is an older girl, comfortable with her during the stay. She sent daily photographs and I know that Emily went above and beyond in the caring for our pet. When my husband and I needed to come back to town early due to weather, Emily was flexible and willing to meet us at a time that was most convenient. She truly puts the customer first and I will be using her again, hopefully, very soon!

A typical day
I love walking myself, so I am happy to use go only long walks exploring different areas if the city to keep your pet active and curious. On top of the walks, I will find them an activity or toy that they will love! Whether that’s hours of active play, or hours of chilling inside, whatever makes them happiest, we will do!

With a new job, I am working from home 100% of the time, which will give me more time one-on-one with your pet! I am available to board on weekends or weekdays, and for long periods of time.
