I typically work from home most days a week and love being able to hang out with the animals. I live a happy peaceful life that I look forward to sharing with your animals too, and find pet sitting mutually beneficial. I hope to meet you soon!

Safety, trust & environment

I like to make sure my pets are happy, calm and loved, so we keep the vibe happy and calm for them through energy and environment; it’s chill over here. I love dogs that will cuddle with me in the couch! I’m super careful to ensure they don’t escape out the door and that any encounter with other animals is treated with attention and care. I never take dogs to dog parks or let them off leash outside.

Information Emily B. would like to know about your pet

I like to know as much as you’ll tell me about your pet, especially if they have anxiety or behavior issues or special needs. I can give medication but if it’s oral or injected I’d love to have a meet n greet before accepting a request to make sure it’s a good fit.

A typical day

I like to go on walks around my neighborhood a few times a day and play with toys inside; I have lots of half ripped toys that need more ripping or we play fetch with balls.

Pet care experience

As a lifelong dog owner, I've cared for many sweet nuggets, big and small, quiet and loud, young and old, and would say I have extra experience with senior dogs and am open to hotel stays as needed. I've watched a lot of dog psychology content on a basic level, and know what our babies need to be healthy. My sweet lab recently passed and I’d love to fill my house with dog love again at any opportunity. I still have beds, treats and toys and can’t wait to meet more angels on earth!

Emily is the best! She took great care of my fur baby with updates and was even super patient with the nervous barking she does when meeting someone new. I really recommend her for great care, where you know there won’t be any worries. My dachshund usually doesn’t eat dinner when meeting someone new or walk well on a leash but she ate her dinner and was walking happily & even napped.

Emily took great care of Mochi! Lots of walks, 1:1 time, and updates. We wouldn't hesitate to have Mochi stay with Emily again.

Emily continues to be incredible! Super communicative, lots of pictures and does well with our pup who has some reactivity on walks.

Emily is incredible! Super communicative with many sweet photos whenever we were missing our boy :) we made a mistake with pickup time and Emily was so understanding and flexible about it. Would recommend to anyone needing great care for their pup!
