Giving Your Pup The Very Best Care!

Hello, my name is Emily and I love animals! I have owned and cared for a variety of pets my entire life, but I especially enjoy dogs. I grew up with them while living with my parents and once I left home I greatly missed them. I decided to start watching dogs in my home through Rover and it has been a wonderful experience. I love caring for them and will always treat them as I would my own. It’s a responsibility I do not take lightly and I pride myself in giving them the very best of care. My goal is to make sure your pup feels like they are in their home away from home when they stay with us. I currently have 1 cat (which would be kept in a separate part of house when our fur friends are visiting. ) I am a wife and mother of two children (10 and 13). I typically work 1 evening a week as a nurse and I am home the rest of the week. While I am gone my husband Phil will be here with the dogs in our care. He and my children also love animals and greatly look forward to their stays with us. We would love to share our home with your furry family members.

This is our third time for our 7 pound Yorkie, Cooper, boarding with Emily and her family. He always comes back super happy. We will definitely be boarding with her again.

I cannot recommend Emily enough! She and her family have watched my dog, Onyx, a few times, and they treat him just like family. She takes him on nice long walks and always keeps me updated with pictures. It is such a comfort knowing he is in such great hands. Will definitely use her services again!

I cannot recommend Emily highly enough. She welcomed my dog into her home and treated her like a true member of the family from the very beginning. She took her on walks, gave her plenty of love and attention, and made sure she felt safe, comfortable, and happy every day. The biggest sign of how wonderful Emily is with dogs is how excited and relaxed my dog feels around her and her family. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing my dog was not just being watched, but genuinely cared for and loved. I am incredibly grateful for the kindness, warmth, and exceptional care she provided.

Doggy Day Care • May 23, 2026

Emily is a godsend. Often times our travel plans are last minute, and so far she has always been able to accommodate us. Our dog has some health issues, and we feel comfortable trusting Emily to take care of and pamper him just the way we do.

Emily was so kind to our special needs dog. I can now do some traveling without constantly worry about our pup.

Schedule

My schedule is very flexible and allows me to be home most of the time. This ensures that I have plenty of time to play with and spoil your pup! We prefer to only board 1 or 2 dogs at a time so that they can be getting our full attention and the best of care. Our spacious backyard backs up to a beautiful community park and there are numerous walking paths to provide lots of fun and exercise throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

A trusted adult will always be here with your pup. We adore animals and greatly enjoy having them stay with us. We make them a top priority when they in our care.

A typical day

We live right next to several beautiful parks and walking paths and can provide ample exercise and playtime. I love taking my dogs for strolls and spending lots of time with them. I typically take longer walks in the morning or evenings when the temperatures aren’t as hot to ensure our pups are comfortable. We live in a spacious 3 story home so your pup will have more than enough room to play and explore while we are inside. A lot of our rooms have soft carpet, but we also have hardwood if your pup prefers a cooler, hard surface.

It would be very helpful to know if your pet has any health concerns or preferences so that we can be better prepared to meet their needs. Would like to know activities your pet enjoys doing and their routines during the day and at night. Do they like to sleep on couches or our bed or do they prefer sleeping in a crate? We are more than happy to accommodate whichever your pup prefers. We want them to be happy while staying with us!
