1. Emily K.
“Emily did a great job with my pack . Even handled the unpleasant task of cleaning up after a sick dog. I was very comfortable leaving them with her for the first time. They seemed really comfortable with her and the house was in great shape when we got home. I would book her again!”

About: I am usually the go-to person friends and family call to walk with and watch over their fur babies. I have a great amount of experience taking care of animals of all ages and sizes (including my own) for friends, family, and neighbors. I love to try and teach new tricks when possible to keep their minds active! Although I am in school while I work, there are set days where I don’t have class. With that there are several days when I am free to watch, check in on, or walk fur babies. When watching my own pets, I normally have them on a leash while outside since I don’t have a fenced in yard. I like to make sure my pets and other peoples pets aren’t outside in the heat for too long and have plenty of water breaks especially when playing. When walking my own or other people pets I don’t like to have them close to roads, I try to walk them in parks and on trails.

About: I’ve taken care of babies and animals since I was a child myself! I have lots of love to give. I know how hard and stressful it can be to find good child care and pet care. I know how hard it is to trust others with your babies. With me, your little loves are safe and taken care of! I want to make this my full time job. So I try to have the most of open availability as I possibly can to take on as much love as I can! I do as directed! I can walk your babies, I can feed them, I can administer medications, even subcutaneously. I can make sure they’re happy and well observed and taken care of!

We have 3 dogs, 5 cats, and two Ferrets of our own that she cares for daily. Including baths, feeding, and exercise. She has also taken care of snake. She has a love for any animal and it shows.

About: I’ve had a few dogs in my lifetime… from an American Eskimo, to a Golden Retriever, to a husky & now I have an Australian Shepherd. I LOVE dogs. I take pride in taking such good care of my own, and I would treat any/every dog with that same compassion & love. I have experience in dog sitting. I also have a lot of experience walking my own dogs… if you can walk a 65 pound eager husky, or a high-energy Aussie, you can walk just about any type of dog. I treat dogs better than I do humans. 🤍🐾 I am a high school teacher. I have the summer off, so I have plenty of time to walk & care for other people’s furry family members. I have a sweet pup of my own, Ripley, who can keep your dog company in my home & on walks. Your pupper is my top priority when in my care.
