Keeping Your Pets Safe & Home Sound

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 10. It started with walking neighbors’ dogs and quickly turned into full-on pet and house sitting. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me with their pets, homes, and even their kids. The longest I’ve house sat was 1.5 months while a neighbor was abroad. I’m comfortable with senior pets, puppies, and everything in between. I treat every animal like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away.

Emily was ok for the most part. I just wished she would've updated me more by sending daily pics and videos or feedback of my dog during his stay and kept up with my dog's belongings. She told me upon picking up my dog that she couldn't find his seat belt it was somewhere in her house. When driving I always use his seat belt for safety so that was really nerve wrecking. Had she told me in advance I could've arranged other safety measures. I also would've appreciated if she offered to pay/replace his lost seat belt being it was misplaced during his stay.

Emily was absolutely amazing! She watched our two dachshunds, London and Monty, over the weekend and we couldn’t be happier with how everything went. From the moment we dropped them off, we felt totally comfortable knowing they were in great hands. She sent plenty of updates and pictures, and it was clear she really cared about their happiness and comfort. Both dogs came back happy, well cared for, and totally relaxed. We’ll definitely be booking with Emily again, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter!

Emily is a wonderful dog sitter! She is reliable, loving, and engaging. I have loved using her when I need someone to take my dog out during long work days or spend time with him when I’m gone on the weekends. Highly recommend!

Emily is the most responsible and caring person! I have trusted her completely with my labradoodle Ruby. I always know I can count on Emily to look after my girl when I cannot!

Emily took care of my golden retriever for a few months, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She’s kind, reliable, and always went the extra mile to make sure my pup was happy & well cared for. My dog absolutely adored her and would get so excited anytime she came by! I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy & loving pet sitter

Schedule

I work from home four days a week and only go into the office in Boca Raton on Tuesdays. My schedule is flexible, and I don’t have any children or pets of my own, so I can easily dedicate time and attention to caring for yours.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely, make sure they have a clean, calm space, and always keep an eye out for anything unusual. I maintain a secure environment—doors locked, leashes double-checked, and plenty of supervision—so your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

A typical day

I tailor activities to each pet’s personality and energy level. This can include neighborhood walks, fetch, or relaxing cuddle time. I love getting pets outside for fresh air when appropriate, and for lower-energy pets, I focus on companionship and calm enrichment. I’m also happy to send photo and video updates so owners can feel connected and at ease while they’re away.

Every pet is unique, and I want to make sure I provide the best care possible. It’s helpful to know their personality, energy level, any behavioral quirks, medical needs, allergies, favorite toys, and routines. I also like to know how they prefer to be greeted, their feeding schedule, and if they have any fears or triggers. The more details you can provide ahead of time, the better I can tailor their care, keep them safe and happy, and make the stay as comfortable as possible.
