Responsible dog mom & pet lover

Pet care experience

I have grown up with dogs in my house my entire life. Im also currently a dog mama to a 1 year old pitbull/lab mix. I’ve done a lot of training with puppies so I am comfortable helping out with youngsters who need a little more firmness. I just LOVE to be around dogs. However, I still understand that dog sitters must be cautious and caring and I can be both of those things. I have helped watch my neighbors dogs through daily checkins. I also have done weekend stays for a multi-dog home and my responsibilities included walking, bathing and feeding. If you’re comfortable I also love taking dogs to the dog park, although I realize that isn’t the best environment for every pup. I also have over 100 hours of volunteer time at my local animal shelter back home in Maine. I worked with every cats&dogs and did a lot of dirty work but absolutely loved it. I am comfortable if the family has other pets besides dogs! Looking forward to helping families out and getting to know your pups! I am incredibly flexible, I work from home as my job is fully remote. If I don’t have the availability you’re looking for, you can message me and I will see if I can make it work! I have a young dog that recently went through obedience training where I learned how to keep my pet safe, but also other pets. I understand that every dog had a different personality & needs and will adapt to those needs. Safety always comes first and this is achieved by being extra aware of the dog and the environment. I also am paranoid about water in the summer so I always double check that!

Em was great with my pup and sent photos throughout the day while watching him. I would use her again. Thanks!

Em was amazing! She was available on a short notice due to a sitter cancellation. She did great at helping our pup meet her dog and gave me piece of mind by sending a video. Would definitely rebook with her again.

Information Em B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any specific dietary needs. It is also very important I know how your dog is around other pets, whether on walks or at a park, so I am able to adapt to their needs and safety.

A typical day

I love to take dogs on long walks, however through trainings I have come to learn that they also need mental stimulation. If you’re comfortable with it, I could take your dog to the dog park. I can also play fetch or tug of war. I have a few mentally stimulating indoor games as well that can help keep your dog busy and entertained.
