Safety, trust & environment

In clients’ homes, I strive to replicate your pet’s daily routine to ensure comfort and continuity. Whether your pet starts the day at 6 a.m. or enjoys daily walks, I adapt to their specific schedule and needs. Additionally, I take pride in maintaining your home’s condition, ensuring it’s just as tidy as you left it.

Information Emily W. would like to know about your pet

All information is valuable! Each pet has a unique routine and needs, so I truly welcome any details you wish to share to ensure I provide the best care possible.

A typical day

I understand the importance of daily stimulation for pets, and I tailor activities to your pet’s energy level. Sometimes that involves engaging in a game of fetch or using treat-filled Kong balls. Alternatively, I recognize that some pets prefer cuddles and a calm environment, and I’m more than happy to provide that comfort as well.

Your Pet’s New Best Friend

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for family and friends’ pets for over 15 years, gaining experience with a wide range of animals and personalities. What began with daily walks for my neighbor’s spirited Shiba Inu grew into house and pet sitting for a variety of pets, including two senior Shih Tzus who required diaper changes and medication. I’m also a cat lover—having cared for my own and many others over the years, I understand the patience and attentiveness their care requires too. My extensive experience with pets of all kinds has shaped me into a reliable, attentive sitter. Ultimately, I’m not making a business of petsitting—it’s something I genuinely enjoy so I do. So, I use Rover as a way to connect with and form consistent clients relationships. No matter your pet’s breed, size, personality, or needs, they’ll receive quality care and attention while you’re away. I hope to connect with you soon!

Emily was so trustworthy and kind!! She took such great care of our two dogs on short notice, making sure to give them plenty of love, walks, playtime, and following our complicated pill and feeding routine. We have never felt so comfortable leaving town and will definitely ask for her help again in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
