Pet care experience

Thoughtful care while you’re away

Animal Experience: I grew up with two cats (Nikki and Abbie) and a 100-pound weimaraner dog (Sherman). Nikki lived to 20, Abbie to 19, and Sherman to 14, so I went through all of the stages of life with them all. A few years later my parents fostered a labradoodle, Bruno, who had high anxiety and a bite on record. I helped train Bruno over the years. He enjoys neighborhood walks and is the sweetest pup around. In 2022 I adopted Juniper, a beautiful tabby cat. She’s quite the picky eater and has taught me patience and understanding in building a cat’s trust. Why become a Rover Sitter? I've always had cats and dogs in my life and absolutely love caring for them. I started Rover in grad school, which was a perfect fit to keep animals in my life while also getting me some much needed time away from my computer. I recently moved to Juneau, so I reactivated my account to care for new fur babies, and in the meantime, create some financial relief from the move.

Safety, trust & environment

I love spending time with animals and greatly respect your home as just that, your home. I hope to make your fur baby as comfortable as possible while you're away. I love walks (and am comfortable with large dogs) and look forward to getting to know them! I’m equally happy to collect mail, take the trash to the curb, and any other tasks associated with you being away.

Emily was a fantastic choice to watch Artie! She is so thoughtful and went above and beyond. My cat was happy to have someone come in and check on him as well.
