Pet care experience

Friend of the Felines

I was raised on a farm where I cared for horses, cats, and dogs. I have grown up with indoor and barn cats, and bonding with cats is my specialty. I am comfortable administering oral medications and caring for pets with medical needs. I will follow your cat's lead, provide the best care possible, and love them like my own throughout the stay. I provide daily updates and always keep you informed about any changes I notice, in addition to sending a lot of pictures.

Safety, trust & environment

I am organized, clean, and observant. While at your home, your pet's care is my top priority. I always make sure to leave no trace whenever possible so you come home to a clean space. When house sitting, I send daily updates in the evening to summarize my day with your pets, including lots of pictures. If I notice any odd behaviors, I will always reach out to ask what is normal for your pet and keep you updated with any changes. When dropping in or going on a walk with the dog, I let you know which route we took and provide pictures and/or videos. When dropping in on a cat, I will always provide pictures and keep you updated on their food and water intake, behavior/demeanor, and what we did during the visit.

Emma was wonderful with both of our dogs while we were away. She communicated clearly throughout and sent multiple photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing our 6 month old puppy and 10 year old dog were happy and well cared for. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

Emma was amazing. My dog can be difficult with new people and she worked with my baby respecting her time and taking care of her. Would recommend her services to anyone that needs it :)

Emma did a great job with my cats! Her rover cards always had pictures and video along with thorough updates so I didn’t have worry at all while I was away. It was clear my cats loved her and felt very comfortable around her. She also had no problem feeding my exotic pets and even watered some of my thirstier plants. She was always quick to get back to me will definitely book again!

Schedule

I am a PhD student and graduate assistant at Saint Louis University, and my schedule varies depending on the day. I can perform most of my work tasks from home and will communicate anytime I will be gone for more than 4 hours if your pet is not used to being alone. When house sitting, I live my life in your home while taking care of your pets. I always check for any conflicts before accepting a booking to make sure I can best accommodate your pets' needs. I am happy give you insight into what my schedule looks like during the duration of the booking to make sure this is works for the both of us.

Cats
Emma can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
If your pet has any quirks or favorite things, let me know so I can learn more about your pet before the visit. Also, please let me know where your pet's supplies are located, such as their leash, food, treats, kitty litter, etc.
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.
