Availability
I'm currently in a flexible post-grad transition and actively job searching, which gives me plenty of time to focus on pet care. I respond quickly and keep communication clear so you always know how your pet is doing. Most importantly, I'm able to give pets plenty of undivided attention, so they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
My goal is to create a low-stress environment for both pets and owners. I always follow instructions closely to maintain a normal routine. In a client's home, I keep things clean and secure. I prioritize safety on walks and during playtime, and make sure pets feel comfortable and settled before leaving.
Information Emily W. would like to know about your pet
Before a visit, I like to learn about your pet's routine, personality, and specific needs. This includes feeding schedules, medical needs, behavior quirks, and triggers. I make sure to understand their leash behavior, house rules, favorite toys and activities, and any boundaries to maintain in your home.
A typical day
With dogs, we usually enjoy a neighborhood walk, time outside, and play with their favorite toys to keep them active and happy. I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and downtime so they feel comfortable and cared for. With cats, I play with their favorite toys, cuddle them, or simply keep them company nearby depending on their mood.

Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Emily! I have loved animals as long as I can remember, and I understand the need to provide them with the best care possible. I grew up with cats, and three years ago adopted my beloved corgi. I treat every booking like I'm caring for a family member. Whether I'm walking, feeding, playing with, or just keeping your pet company, I make sure they feel safe and cared for. I've built long-term relationships with repeat clients through reliable communication and consistent care. I always provide updates with some cute pictures so you know how your pet is doing :) I'm especially comfortable with dogs that need structure and consistency, or pets that are a bit shy or anxious at first. I pay attention to their behavior and often find that we become best friends by the end of the visit. If you're looking for someone dependable, responsive, and caring, I'd love to meet you and your pet!

Reviews
Our first time with Rover. Emily was wonderful. Sending notification when she arrived at the house, provided the map and additional info. She always left loving notes about Maggie. We would definitely use Rover again and request Emily.
Emily did a great job taking care of our cat while we were in Italy. She sent frequent photos and spent a good amount of time with him. So happy with our choice!
Emily did amazing with our two cats while we were on vacation. She was very responsive and I can tell that my cats were happy and comfortable with her!
Luca seemed fine when we returned home in the afternoon. The photos of Luca and comments were welcome. Emily and Luca got along well. However, it appeared that Luca wasn't let out of the house in the morning until 11 AM. Which meant that he was locked in the house for over 17 hours. I thought the morning visit would be around 8:30 AM. I also noticed that water hadn't been added to his food and Luca hadn't touched his breakfast when we arrived back home around 3:30.
