Pet care experience

Lifelong animal lover!

I’ve been around animals my whole life—growing up with both big and small dogs, and currently a proud cat owner. I’ve cared for pets of friends, neighbors, and family, handling everything from feeding and walking to bathing and playtime. I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely love animals. You can count on me to treat your pet like one of my own.

Emma is absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond for her first visit with Ruby. She took her out, walked her, and played fetch! She also made sure to follow the instructions I gave her EXACTLY! My puppy absolutely adores her, and I would recommend her to anyone who needs someone reliable, trustworthy, and kind for your pet!

Emma’s an amazing pet sitter!! She has watched my little havanese on multiple occasions and always sends me photos for updates! My dog absolutely adores her which is why I always come to her whenever I need a sitter.

Emma is a super reliable and caring pet sitter! She truly loves animals, is detail oriented, and goes above and beyond. I couldn’t recommend her more!

I highly recommend Emma as a pet sitter and dog walker on Rover. She has watched my cat, Zeke, over many weekends and consistently goes above and beyond in every way. From keeping his feeding schedule on track to making sure he’s comfortable and well cared for, Emma handles every responsibility of pet sitting with care, reliability, and professionalism. What stands out most is my peace of mind when Zeke is with her. Emma communicates clearly, shares thoughtful updates, and genuinely loves animals. She treats Zeke like her own, and I never have to worry when I’m away. Knowing she’s looking after him allows me to relax and focus on what I need to do. Emma would be an excellent addition to the Rover community. Any pet owner would be lucky to have her!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am currently a Graduate student at UVA with a flexible schedule that allows me to drop by in between classes to walk and play with your pet! With that, I am typically more available in mornings and evenings, but can accommodate a variety of needs!

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their own home, I always prioritize keeping their routines consistent and their environment safe. I follow all instructions closely, keep the space clean, and ensure your pet gets the love, attention, and exercise they’re used to. I treat your home with the same respect I would my own.

Pets

A typical day

I love to include a variety of activities for your dog! Taking them on multiple walks, playing with their favorite toys, and making sure they got lots of attention and cuddle during the day!

Please let me know if your dog has any special medications or accommodations that I need to be aware of. I want to make sure your pet gets cared for in the best possible way personal to them!
