Highlights
Pet care experience
Adventure-loving dog mom
Since 2006, I’ve been a dedicated dog mom, foster, and senior caretaker. Whether we’re hitting the trails for daily adventures or I’m treating them to a relaxing massage, I’m all-in on canine care. And if the mood is right, I might even serenade them with a song!

Safety, trust & environment
I truly love caring for pups in the comfort of their own homes. I have a deep respect for the routines and systems you’ve already built—after all, you know your dog best! My goal is to honor those rhythms while gently building a soulful bond of my own. I’ll stick to your schedule to keep things peaceful and familiar, simply adding in my own little "extras"—like a calming massage, a happy song, or a fun trail walk—to make their day a bit brighter. It’s all about keeping them happy, relaxed, and loved right where they belong.
Ratings and reviews
Ember is fabulous! She kept our 15 year old dog safe and gave him so much attention and love. She adjusted what she did each day based on his needs. She did a great job keeping us informed while we were on our vacation. She went above and beyond and we can’t thank her enough. We would definitely book her again.
Ember is the best, great dog handling skills and intuition.
Ember went above and beyond taking care of my two dogs. She sent lots of pictures throughout the booking and my girls loved her.
It was immediately apparent to my fiancé and I that Ember has the confidence, experience, and passion that we were looking for in a dog sitter for our two German shorthair pointers, and she did a wonderful job doing a very short notice drop in visit and walk. I whole heartedly recommend her and plan to book with her again in the future!
I had the opportunity to accompany Ember during a socialization session with a dog displaying aggressive tendencies, and I was truly impressed by her calm, confident approach. She demonstrated a deep understanding of canine behavior, using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement techniques to help the dog feel more secure and less reactive.
mber is an incredibly caring and devoted provider who goes far beyond simply watching a dog—she truly becomes their friend. She takes the time to understand each dog’s unique personality, what they enjoy, what they need, and how to make every moment of their day fulfilling and happy. Through her education and commitment to continuous learning, Ember has become a trusted surrogate dog mom to many. While she has experience working with dogs of all ages, her true passion lies in helping senior dogs live their very best lives. She focuses on keeping them strong, comforts them on difficult days, and takes them on adventures when they’re up for it—always meeting them exactly where they are. Ember’s selflessness shines through not only in who she is as a person, but in the exceptional level of care she provides. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who loves their dog as much as I love mine.

Schedule
I’m officially trading the office life for more wagging tails! My schedule is wide open to build genuine, soulful connections with your pups through hikes, massages, and specialized senior care. I’m fully dedicated to my four-legged clients, though I always carve out "paws-on" time to ensure my own pack gets the same love and daily adventures they deserve. If you're looking for someone who treats your dog like family (and maybe even sings them a tune), I’m your person!
