Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of pets of every kind for friends and family. I love and respect both people and animals! I prefer walking to driving, so I think your pet and I will get along. I like to cook and can make gourmet meals for your pet! I can walk, feed, and bathe your pet too ;8-)

Emil is a great dog walker for our needs. We rely on him daily, and never disappoints or doesn't show up. He is a great communicator and is upfront on what he can do. We will continue to book Emil in the future.

Emil was willing to accommodate me and my puppy Rip with a last minute sit when my original care plans fell through. He was patient and understanding with Rip being new to me and still working on his potty training and leash skills. I am so grateful!

Emil did a great job taking care of our puppy. He provided updates with photos and was very nice to her.
