Pet care experience

Your fur babies are in good hands!

(NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS IN RICHMOND!!!) I’ve taken care of my family’s pets my whole life and then 6 years ago I adopted my dog Beau- Frank. He is very high energy and has a lot of behavioral issues and food intolerances but I work with him every day with professional training. I have also cared for many friends and family’s pets and also for people I don’t know. I am very trustworthy and I am confident I could take care of your pet and keep them safe. No dog has as many issues as my dog so I haven’t run into a dog I can’t take care of! I treat the pets I sit for like they’re my own and treat them and the home I’m staying in with respect. I know how hard it can be to trust someone new but with me you have nothing to worry about! Can’t wait to meet your furry loved ones!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I would not be able to care for your fur baby at my home because my dog does not get along with other animals but I would be more than happy to care for your pet at your home! I know the anxiety that can come with a stranger staying at your home but I’m more than happy to do a meet and greet :) I am very detail oriented and have no problem sticking to a schedule. Safety is my #1 concern with your pet!

Emily was great with our dog and flexible about staying an extra day when our travel plans changed. Thank you for taking such good care of our pup!

Emily did a fantastic job with my nervous, old pup. He can be finicky but he warmed up to her quickly! She took wonderful care of our house as well and left it in great shape. Highly recommend Emily and we will definitely book with her again!
