Pet care experience

Caring and dedicated pet sitting in South Somerset

Hello, I am Emma, a lifelong pet owner and dedicated animal welfare professional. I have over 4 years professional experience working with a variety of animals in animal care environments (rescue centres, boarding facilities, wildlife hospitals, animal sanctuaries). I have a degree in wildlife biology where I studied animal behaviour and welfare and completed my own research project & dissertation in this subject area. I am extremely passionate about providing the highest level of care to animals and I endeavour to ensure every need they have is met. In my most recent role, I worked as an Animal Care Assistant for 1.5 years at a boarding kennels & cattery. I am experienced in handling a wide range of dog breeds, and no matter their size, I love them all! I devote myself to providing the best possible animal care so your fur babies will be in the safest hands. I have a love for all animals so I am happy to look after whatever breed/species your pet may be! Ensuring that your pet is happy and healthy is my top priority. In your home, I will respect your property and follow all instructions/advice given to me. Typical duties I will undertake while pet-sitting or dropping in for a visit are: feeding, watering, cleaning up any messes, letting your pet outside if you have a garden or outdoor space, welfare checks, play and lots of cuddles.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I follow all instructions given to me. For example if your pet(s) are only allowed access to certain areas of your home, I will ensure that this is strictly adhered to. I take safety and security very seriously, as such I will not leave windows/doors open or leave any area of your property unlocked unless specifically asked to. When we meet, I will ask about your pet(s) usual routine so that I can keep them as comfortable as possible while you are away.

Emma is absolutely amazing! She really looked after our boy Riley and he really loved her! He was also poorly at one point and Emma dealt with it with no problems. She also sent us regular updates of our lovely boy whilst we were away. We couldn’t be more grateful, thank you so much xx

Emma was absolutely brilliant with our sausages and bengals! We loved getting regular updates, and when she left, the house was left beautifully tidy. Thank you so much!

We couldn’t ask for a better Housesitter for our elderly dog. Emma looks after Basil so well , he seems disappointed when we return 😂

Schedule

I am looking to pursue pet-sitting as my full-time job as I thoroughly enjoy getting to meet new clients and their lovely pets. I have a number of ongoing repeat clients, meaning that any new bookings would need to fit around these but generally I am very flexible.

Cats
0 to 7 kg
7 to 18 kg
18 to 45 kg
over 45 kg
Emma can host up to 8 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavioural issues so that I can cater to their needs and help them to be as comfortable with me as possible. If your pet requires medications at specific times, please let me know so that I can stick to your routine.
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.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
