I'll be the Dorothy to your Toto

I’m Emelyn and I love dogs! I adore spending time with animals and have also fostered rescues. My home will be the perfect place for pets and you can feel comfortable knowing your dog is in my loving and safe care! I have a big fenced yard where they can run and play. I grew up with dogs, including a German Shepherd, Cocker Spaniel, and Poodle. As an adult, I’ve had Jimmy Choo, a Maltese-Yorkie mix since 2012, Bruce, a shepherd mix for 2 years before passing, and Charlie, a long-haired dachshund mix who was a pandemic puppy abandoned by her person who went back to work! I always treat the pups I watch as if they’re my own and will be a loyal and trustworthy care provider while you’re away. My friends like to characterize me as a joyful and enthusiastic person and that is definitely true! I always try to find the “bright side” of things. I’m positive and loving and will absolutely take those elements of my personality into the care of your pup! I know how hard it is to be away from your fur baby so I’ll be in constant communication, sending photo and text updates so you know your pup is having fun on their stay. When I’m not spending time with my pups, I enjoy reading, hiking, and finding new and interesting restaurants. I also love to travel and road trips are a personal favorite of mine! Nothing like going down those back country roads with your window open! I’ve also been known to spend an afternoon crocheting and would love to snuggle with your pup while I do so! I’m happy to keep your dog as active as they need! Although I work full-time during the day from home, your dog will be well-exercised and loved!

Emelyn really takes very nice of our dog and she even cooks some chicken and rice for him since he loves home made food ?

Emelyn is just a great sitter. She’s very responsive and super caring!! She kept sending pictures and gave regular updates. She was super flexible to extend the stay by a day and graciously take care of my dog. Highly recommend

There are no words proper enough to express my gratitude. Emelyn was a true angel! My little beagle got sick during his overnight stay and she was very understanding, compassionate and communicative throughout the process. I will definitely use her as much as possible and consider myself lucky to have found such an understanding and reasonable dog sitter! Thank you again Emelyn.

Emelyn was great. Very responsive and took great care of our dog for the week. We got pictures and updates and felt like she really cares for his well-being. Highly recommended.

Emelyn has been wonderful with our kitty! She was very attentive to my scatterbrained schedule (I moved to this new place last week and there are boxes everywhere!) and was so flexible with us. Thanks Emelyn!

Schedule

I work full time from home, so I'll always have at least on ear to what's going on, even if I'm in meetings. Your dogs can hang out with my dogs or on their own during the day, however, I will walk them in the morning, evening, and before bed, and have some play time during my lunch break. I leave the door to the backyard open during the day so the dogs can go in and out freely.

Pets

A typical day

My neighborhood is very dog-friendly. I know your pup will love that there are other dogs in my neighborhood, I never go on a walk without running into at least one or two dogs! When we’re not outside with other pups, taking walks, we’ll spend our time in my dog-friendly home! Dogs are welcome on any furniture and there are plenty of toys to keep them occupied. If your pup likes to relax, I love snuggling up on the couch together. My dogs are very chill for the most part and they sleep most of the day. Whatever your pup needs, I’ll be happy to provide.

Before a stay I like to learn a few things: - Does your pup have any medical issues or behavioral tendencies I should know about? - What is the best way to spoil your dog? - What is your pup’s normal routine and schedule? - How much activity does your dog need? - Are they allowed to have treats when I give some to my dogs?
