Pet care experience

7 years of professional experience!

I’ve had pets since I was born! I grew up taking care of cats, fish, lizards, rabbits, and dogs. For three years, I worked taking care of 50-75 horses at a natural horsemanship farm, alongside taking clinics at the local vet office. I have worked at a local veterinary hospital for over 3 years and work as a veterinary assistant. My job entails taking medical histories, performing blood draws, vaccinations, injections, and fluids, taking radiographs, restraining and handling animals, and caring for animals post-anesthesia, and more! The clinic I work at is AAHA certified and fear free certified. I am experienced with animal care in many facets, including dealing with sick, hurt, and disabled animals. I also have a background in animal training. I have spent years training and working with behaviorally challenged horses and have trained my own animals, including a deaf rabbit who was previously terrified of people and a dog with separation anxiety. Additionally, I have a degree in biology (ecology and organismal biology) and will be going to vet school to continue studying veterinary medicine and pursue my DVM. I’m an animal lover through and through and I’d love nothing more than to spend time with your fur babies!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have lots of experience watching pets in home, checking in, and taking pets out for walks. I love to go for long structured walks or take them for some playtime at a park! I also enjoy just stopping by and providing some love and playtime at home. For house sitting, I do have a fee of $20 additional for staying overnight. Let me know how I can cater to you!

As another rover worker, I understand what it means to having to work around multiple schedules and she did awesome with that. And the dogs seemed to do pretty good with her for only meeting her once. I would definitely book through her again.

Emily did great with our two dogs, one who is very anxious and the other who is very high energy! She took them on walks and to the dog park, took lots of pictures, and we felt very at ease knowing she was taking care of them!

Emily was great with Marti. Very courteous and professional. She took her for a long walk. Marti looked quite happy and content when we got home. Highly recommend.

I am absolutely thrilled to write a testimonial for my friend Emily for dog sitting my dogs! A true pet lover, Emily went above and beyond in taking care of my furry friends while I was away on vacation. Not only did she keep them well-fed and watered, but she also made sure they received plenty of exercise and playtime to keep them happy and healthy. She even kept me updated with daily texts and photos, so I never had to worry about my pups. What impressed me most about Emily was the genuine affection and care she showed towards my dogs. They quickly warmed up to her and seemed to love spending time with her. It was clear that she truly cared about them, and that meant the world to me. Overall, I cannot recommend Emily highly enough for anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring dog sitter. She is an absolute gem and my dogs adore her!
