Pets

Safety, trust & environment

We are an outdoorsy, nature-loving family! We love to walk the dogs in the neighborhood and let them play and sniff all over our large yard. We currently have 2 dogs living with us - Oreo, a terrier, and Duke, a tripod yellow lab! Both are friendly rescue pups:)

Em and her daughter were such amazing sitters! They kept us updated with pictures throughout his stay. We could tell Jones enjoyed himself - probably being way spoiled!:) They let him run off some of his energy in their fenced in back yard, which was great. Jones is a snuggler so it was fun to know they let him cuddle with them. We will definitely use Em again and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and fun place for their pup!

If you’re looking for an amazing family to take care of your dog, Em and her family are it! They live close to the lake, which was an added bonus for our pup. Their house has a fenced yard and is dog friendly. Our pup was spoiled with toys and cuddles, and we got photo updates as well. They will definitely be our go-to next time we’re out of town. Thanks Em!

Stop searching for sitters, you've found Em! No further action required! Provided my 8 year old lab with lots of love, exercise & comfort! Nice, safe neighborhood w/ fully fenced yard. I don't think he wanted to leave. She will be my go to spot for dog care needs. Thanks again!

Let me know if your dog has any preferences, comforts, special needs or behaviors that I can account for. Most dogs are anxious during their first stay - let me know what best helps them manage! My preference is for breeds that are friendly with most dogs, listen to basic commands, and are house trained.
