Pet care experience

Keeping all tails waggin' 🐶 & 🐈

I have loved and cared for dogs for almost my entire life. I have been around dogs since I was 5 years old, which has given me a deeper understanding and love of all dogs. Besides caring for my personal and family member's dogs, I worked at a doggy daycare part-time and cared for dogs of all breed, ages and sizes. On a normal day, I would be responsible for managing at least 20-30 dogs indoors and outdoors. This experience allowed me to learn different canine behaviors and how to effectively handle situations. The experience and love doesn't stop at just dogs - I also have plenty of experience with cats and love them just as much! I currently work for a local dog walking company, where I take pride in offering top-notch pet care. I am around pets all day long and I can't think of a better way to spend my days! I have years of experience with a variety of pets, dog breeds, sizes and personalities. I also have been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends because I treat all fur babies like they are my own - always loved and spoiled! This is why I decided to join Rover and help local families have a stress-free vacation knowing that their pets are well taken care of with me. I currently work full-time Monday-Friday and will be available to care for your pets during morning & evening hours and on weekends. I do update my calendar every two weeks, at the least. While dog walking, I always ensure it is a safe environment for the dog and myself. Working in a doggy daycare has taught me an array of skills. I have a strong understanding of body language when it comes to dogs, therefore I am able to comprehend if your dog gets uncomfortable in its surroundings or by another furry friend. I am able to effectively manage and handle these types of situations because of my previous experience. I will ensure your dog enjoys every second of their walk by keeping that tail wagging! For any new clients, I do require a meet & greet to be scheduled so that I can ensure I take great care of your pet!

Emma is always great with my cat. She even checks in on my bird and fish just to make sure they are ok. This last time we had an issue that came up unexpectedly and when she couldn't get ahold of us, she went ahead and took care of the problem. She didn't just wait and hope I called back. We love her. She is great. We use her whenever we are out of town and I don't have to worry about my animals.

Whitesox loves when she comes to visit. She is great with him. She even keeps an eye on my fish and bird while we are gone. She is super friendly and responsive. Very professional as well!

Wonderful job as always. I wish the app would let us tip more because she goes above and beyond the call of duty to take care of our fur baby.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I work full-time so my availability is mostly on weekends, week day evenings and mornings. I always ensure I am available before confirming a booking.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

During the meet & greet, I will ensure I know all of the care details for your pet. Your pet's safety is my number one priority and I will be sure to care for them like they are my own! I also make sure to double check your home is safe and secure before leaving. Your trust is very important to me!

Pets

A typical day

I love to make sure your dog is getting plenty of exercise, both physically and mentally. I will grab their favorite toy and play with them or walk them until they are tired for the rest of the day. Two of my favorite places to walk in this area are the High Point Greenway and the Piedmont Environmental Center. I am open to any and all of your dog's favorite spots!
