Pet care experience
Pets make a house a home and are a member of the family. I’ve had dogs all my life and will consider your pet(s) a member of my family while in my care. Pets in my care are my priority. For sitting in my home or your home, I may charge more than others because I’m prepared to address unexpected care. I try to keep my rates competitive, but it’s challenging to pick one rate for all pets. Please reach out if you’re interested. I’m happy to discuss rates depending on need.
Reviews
Emily is wonderful. Buster was well taken care of!
Emily is an amazing pet sitter and house sitter
Emily is absolutely wonderful with our young puppy. She made sure our puppy had a lot of play time, and even did some training with her. She sent regular updates and took really adorable pictures of her. We appreciate Emily caring for her while we were away!
Emily is a commensurate professional who will treat your pets and your home as her own. She has had pets (dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, horses) her entire life, including two small dogs right now that are her "children." She's responsible, responsive and exercises excellent judgment. She also spent decades in corporate America and is attuned to the demands and needs of similar professionals who need help caring for their pets, including providing excellent customer service. I can't recommend her enough.

Safety, trust & environment
In your home, I’ll follow your norms and schedule. I’ll ensure your pet is in a safe and clean environment. I’ll adhere to your established rules for furniture privileges, treats, feeding time, post walk cleaning, etc. If I’m staying overnight at your place, I’ll wash my linens and remake the bed (unless you’re returning before noon and then linens may still be in the wash). If I’m watching your pet in my home, I appreciate potty trained and polite pets. Baby pets or incontinent pets will get a smaller area to roam for damage control. Our Coton de Tulear is very friendly and loves to play; she also gets the memo when others aren’t as spritely. If your dog is aggressive towards other dogs, let me know in advance so we can discuss a possible solution.
Home
Information Emily B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or preferences. I’d also love to hear about their typical day, so I know what to expect.
A typical day
We’ll play with toys (fetch, tug, et al.) Lots of pets. If brushing and practicing tricks are palatable—we’ll do those too. Walks or even a hike if there a nearby trails.
