About: I have taken care of many of my friends and families dogs ranging from puppies to older dogs. I have handled dogs of all kinds: bulldogs, aussies, zuchons, and many more. I can give medication, give baths, train puppy’s, etc. I work a full time job 8-5 on the weekdays. I am available most nights and come home on my lunch break. I am home most weekends. We do live in Groton but are willing to help out with drop offs and pickups. I have an extremely friendly mini Aussiedoodle that loves company. We have a large yard but is not fenced in. I love to go on walks or take the dogs outside to play.

About: I have 2 large dogs (Catahoulas) so I have experience with walking difficult dogs on a leash and understand the need to burn energy. I’ve had them since puppies so I’m familiar with light training as well. I work remotely from home and have flexibility to go to your home throughout the day as needed. I can be available at short notice. I can crate, treat, walk, play, and administer medication as needed. I’m comfortable with the special needs of your dog and will treat them as my own family.

“Emily was so sweet and wonderful to our fur baby while we were away. She was responsive, timely, and professional at every interaction. I felt at peace leaving Milo to be cared for by Emily and would 100% recommend her to anyone! :)”
