House sitting and night drops/walks

Pet care experience

Hello - so happy you're viewing me as a potential sitter for your dog! I want to preface a couple things right off the bat - I work a full-time job during the day so any drop-in visits or walks can only be done for my schedule in the evening time after 5:30pm (I will still reply if requested earlier in the day but will not be able to do them). I can do drop in/walks on Saturday and Sunday all day long most weekends so more open then! I am available for house sitting at any time unless you want me there the entire time then I would suggest booking a friday evening to Sunday evening/monday morning, otherwise I work a full-time job during the day Monday-Friday and gone most days about 10 hours so willing to stay at your house and give your dog a walk before I go into work those days and then right when I get home from work and stay over night at your place if that's what you need. Hopefully I can help you out in your pet sitting needs as I love meeting new animal friends and maybe someday my availability will open up again for more full-time care but I don't have that ability at the moment and rover does not allow you to be as specific as I would like to be in my schedule updates. I am also open to doing boarding in my own home but varies depending on the dog(s) as I have a dog in the household too. Anyway, putting the specific information here for all to read to make things a little easier for everyone. I look forward to hearing from you! A little bit more about me is included below :) My name is Emma and I have been great with pets since I could walk and hold them. I like to think of all dogs as my best friends because they really are so much fun to be around. I have experience with a diverse range of breeds. I do offer off leash in my own care including potty breaks as I have a fenced in back yard. However, any walks I would prefer all dogs leashed unless we went to do a dog park. I would take your pet for a walk or run depending on how active they are, we would play fetch and work on tricks. Your animal would grow to love me as much as I love them. You will never have to worry about leaving your pet again if you pick me as your sitter/ walker. **drop in visits can sometimes last longer than 30 minutes (depends on the pet(s)), we go for walks and allow for play time and snuggles** **I am available for late/early drop ins** **i do have a small breed 5 year old dog and would love to bring her with me if your pet(s) like other dogs and are also friendly, she is only 16 pounds & very well-behaved and loves meeting new friends but she is perfectly fine with staying at home if need be***

Emma helped me out big time when I needed a last minute drop in for my standard poodle mix Nilla. She sent me updates and Nilla was happy to have the company! She followed all directions seamlessly and asked questions if she had them. Would definitely recommend Emma and am looking forward to reaching out to her in the future!

Emma was on time for our meet and greet and on the day she cared for our dog. She listened to and followed all instructions, asked appropriate questions, and took excellent care of our dog at our home. Next time I need a dog-sitter I will contact Emma first.

Emma came to our home for a drop in visit with our Great Dane Axel. Axel got to play outside and get some exercise while we were gone for the day. Emma had great communication and sent a cute pic of Axel. Would recommend! Thanks Emma!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and my dog is friendly with other dogs, she mostly likes to smell them and she is good with hanging out by herself, however if it's a puppy and playful they can usually get her to come out of her shell! We can always crate your dog if preferred as well, likely would crate them at night time while we sleep, otherwise they would hang out in the house with us and be able to roam around where they wanted!

Information Emma S. would like to know about your pet

How often do they go outside? Any concerns with other pets? Are they crate trained? Anything else I should know while your dog is my care?

A typical day

Doggy parks, walks or runs around the neighborhood. We could play fetch and work on their tricks. We have lots of doggies around my area so we’d most likely run into a few and have play time with them as well as playtime with my own dog.

Availability

I'm currently studying and have a variety of jobs, but my favorite job is taking care of and hanging out with animals! My dog is also a big fan of other dogs and we always are going on walks or going to parks to meet other dog friends or explore. I am very active so being outside and going on walks are a daily routine for me!
