Highlights
Pet care experience
Graduate student and animal lover
I have been dogsitting/petsitting for friends and family since I was in high school. I have also been the proud owner of a rescue cat named Beans for nearly 3 years, who, because of her background, requires some special care and lots of love. I understand that each pet has a unique personality, and I can adapt my approach to make sure your pet has the best care possible.

Safety, trust & environment
I believe the best approach is to follow detailed instructions from the pet's owner. In addition to routine questions such as feeding schedule, walking schedule, etc., I like to ask the following questions: - For dog owners, are you comfortable with people approaching/petting your dog on we're on walks, or would you prefer that I request they don't? - Are there any pre-exisiting health concerns that I should be keeping an eye on? - Is there a specific walking route that your dog is most comfortable with? - Are there any training behaviors you've been working on with your pet that you'd like me to reinforce?
Ratings and reviews
Emma is wonderful!! I love the photos she sends of my cat and it's clear my kitty loves her. It gives me great peace of mind when I am traveling to have her coming in, she is very reliable. Thank you Emma!

Emma R. cancelled a booking after the stay began.
Fantastic as always. We can always count on Emma.

If I could give Emma 10 stars I would - she’s the definition of the person you want watching your pet when you’re out of town. Our heat broke while we were away. Emma let us know and came back to bring a heated bed for Cricket while we worked remotely to get it fixed. She’s the literal best!

Emma always takes such good care of Cricket! And stepped in to also watch our foster cat while we were gone.


As usual, Emma did a great job looking after our cat Merlin. We got lots of updates and the apartment was super clean and tidy. Emma is always responsive and reliable and our cat always seems happy and relaxed when we get home.

Schedule
I am a current graduate student at Georgetown, which means I have an extremely flexible schedule to check in on your pets! I can easily work spending time with your pets into my class schedule, especially during the summer.
