Forever friend for the furry

Pet care experience

I was raised on a farm and gained an innate understanding and passion for animal behavior. I've worked with animals who have behavioral challenges, and I appreciate developing a mutual respect for each other and modifying interactions to make everyone more comfortable. I serve farming communities as a farm-sitter since I no longer have a farm of my own, and I would like to work with more clients with pets in town. I am a full-time student at Ithaca College, but I am taking the spring 2020 semester off, January-May, to do some work that I enjoy and save money for school. I love dogs and cats and enjoy building trust with clients, so they are comfortable leaving their pets in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Hello, Emma Brown Shaklee is a wonderful dog sitter. She has taken care of my 2 year old husky a number of times. Emma is an animal lover and she takes watching pets very seriously -from making sure water and food is provided to long walks and great playtimes! Emma has also been known to milk goats and cows and care for just about any pet you might have. I highly recommend that you add Emma to your list of Rover dog sitters.
