Experienced Dog Lover

Experienced Pet Care with a Love for Animals Growing up on a house surrounded by a variety of animals, I’ve been caring for dogs since I was young. My love for nature and long walks makes dog walking a perfect fit for me. I was previously a full-time dog sitter, and thanks to my dedication and love for pets, I was always fully booked. After taking a break, I’m excited to be back, offering services such as Dog Walking, Drop-ins, and House Sitting at your place. I’m passionate about being around dogs and cats, and I have a special love for horses. If you’re looking for a caring and experienced pet sitter, feel free to message me to book a meet and greet! 🐾🐈🐶

Our Jack Russell had a great time with Emily (as evidenced by all the photos we received throughout his stay!). We felt very settled knowing he was in safe hands and will definitely be coming back.

Nesta had a great time with Emily. She is so calm and lovely - and her communication both before and during the stay was amazing. We will be booking with her again 😊

Emily was really kind and provided pictures and videos with our two dogs playing. They seemed so happy and once we were back it felt like our two dogs really liked her. I would definitely recommend her!

Emily did a great job of looking after our high-energy Springador, Loki! She was incredibly patient with him, re-assuring is with updates and pictures at regular intervals throughout his 3-night stay!

Schedule

Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, as it aligns perfectly with my lifestyle and passion for animals. I structure my day around the needs of the pets I care for, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, and care. Morning walks are a great way to start the day, providing both the dogs and me with some fresh air and physical activity. Throughout the day, I schedule drop-ins and additional walks, depending on the needs of each pet. Evenings are often reserved for house sitting or another round of walks, making sure each pet feels comfortable and settled for the night. My love for being outdoors and spending time with animals makes pet care a fulfilling and enjoyable part of my routine, allowing me to stay active and connected with nature while ensuring the well-being of the pets I look after.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I focus on creating a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I follow the pet owner’s instructions closely, maintaining the pet’s regular routine, including feeding times, exercise, and any special care they require. I ensure the home is safe and secure, and I spend quality time with the pets, providing them with attention, playtime, and affection.

A typical day

I love keeping pets engaged and happy with a variety of fun activities tailored to their interests and energy levels. Here are some of the activities I enjoy doing with the pets I care for: 1. Long Walks and Nature Hikes: For dogs who love the outdoors, I take them on scenic walks or hikes, allowing them to explore new smells and enjoy the fresh air. 2. Playtime: Whether it’s a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or chasing after toys, playtime is a great way to keep pets active and mentally stimulated. 3. Interactive Games: I enjoy engaging pets with puzzle toys or hide-and-seek games, which challenge their minds and provide entertainment. 4. Training Sessions: For pets who enjoy learning new tricks or practicing commands, I incorporate short training sessions that are fun and rewarding. 5. Cuddle Time and Relaxation: Some pets just love to relax and be close, so I make sure to spend quiet time with them, offering plenty of cuddles and belly rubs. 6. Exploration Adventures: If the pet is comfortable with it, I sometimes take them to pet-friendly parks or neighborhoods for a change of scenery and socialization. These activities are not only fun but also help to strengthen the bond between me and the pets, ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well-cared for while under my supervision.
