“Emily is fantastic! She took excellent care of our dogs and was the perfect houseguest. Our dogs were happy, well exercised, and well fed when we got home. She knows so much about dogs, she even gave me some great tips on training our puppy! 10/10 we will be asking Emily for help again with our dogs!”

About: I had dogs all my life until the last 7 years. Our cocker mix Sonic passed at age 18. Now I play and sit for my friends and family since I like to travel a lot. I do go south for part of the winter and last year I do help out fostering a pup from our local dog rescue community. I’m happy to walk well behaved dogs in a safe environment. I always make sure to bring bags and clean up , I am to do that in your yard as well. I will patiently play fetch and accommodate their schedule for potty breaks- even in the middle of the night. I am retired so I am very flexible with hours. I am interested in doing in home sitting for vacations. I am also available to potty breaks or walks locally. I am very responsible and trustworthy. I worked in healthcare as an RN for 27 years so I am good with adhering to caregiving needs with animals and humans.
“Leslie was great. She sent me pictures of my dog and texted updates. I never worried once when I was gone and most of the time I was outside of cell range and had no anxiety about issues popping up and her not being able to handle it. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Everything seemed to go well but we didn’t get many updates/pictures during her stay. The animals were happy and fed when we got back so I think all went well! We didn’t hear otherwise.”
“Cheryl was very accommodating and was able to help us out in a last-minute jam she took care of the dogs like her own and was very nice and sent pictures and updates frequently we'll definitely use her again”
“Oliver did a great job watching my pups. They are 14 and 6 months and they were well cared for. Our home was as well. We will definitely use him again. He did a great job communicating and keeping us informed.”
“Andrea was able to accept my request at the last minute as my sitter canceled on me. She was quick to respond, sent plenty of photos and was very communicative. My dog was so happy and comfortable with her that when we got back, she didn’t really payed attention to us, but was by the door sad when Andrea left. I will definitely be booking again with her.”
“Kristina was fantastic, my dog felt instantly comfortable with her and had a great time hanging out. Kristina is punctual, professional, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend and would book again.”
“Perfect! Heather is fantastic! She was timely, kind and great with my two large Rottweilers. When I got home my dogs were happy, calm, and seemed very content! I cannot thank you enough and look forward to working with you again. -Daisy, Goot, & Alissia”
