PhD student with flexible schedule
Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Emma, a current PhD student in English with a HUGE love of dogs. I have experience working with both small and large breed dogs, and I particularly enjoy dog walking!
Reviews
Emma was absolutely wonderful while pet sitting for my babies, Maddie and Teddy! She went above and beyond, even giving them baths while she was here. I would invite her to stay with them again anytime! Highly recommended.
Emma is the absolute best! She does a great job with both my dog and cat and is very communicative.
Emma was great! Kept me informed and did a wonderful job!!! Thank you!!
Emma is the best! My little guy loves his walks with her.
About Emma P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am a total dog person—when I'm in a room with a pup, it is impossible for me to focus on anything else! I am very attentive to body language, and have in the past been able to identify when something was wrong, and caught potential illness early on. I am particularly attentive to keeping foreign objects out of the way (socks!, plants!), and being hyper vigilant about keeping the door closed! (I’ve had some experience with runners)
Information Emma P. would like to know about your pet
I enjoy working with poodles and chihuahuas! I've spent a lot of time with senior dogs, and they are truly something special and I love working with them. If there are any commands you are working on, I would love to practice them while I care or your pet!
A typical day
I am a big time walker and love to take my own dog, Dolly, on long walks throughout the week. If it's rainy or too cold, we will go for a shorter walk and I will supplement that with some brain stimulating activity, like a lick mat, or a treat roll. Lately we have been going to the dog park, where Dolly has made some new friends.

Availability
I am a PhD student at Vanderbilt, so I have a very atypical schedule! My daily work is mostly remote, and I make my own schedule which makes it easy to work with you and your pup’s scheduling needs.
