Information Emily C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pup has any guarding issues so I can ensure proper precautions are taken. I live with my boyfriend so if your dog is more cautious and weary around men let me know so he can be there for the meet and greet to ensure your dog is comfortable. If there is anything else you think I should know please let me know.
A typical day
I will stick to any schedule you have in regards to meal times and bathroom breaks. Otherwise lots of play time or naps depending on what your dog would like to do.

Pet care experience
I've had dogs my whole life growing up. Unfortunately due to my job I can't have my own fur baby at the moment but would love to spend time with yours! ( Flight attendant but would only take bookings during my days off so I can be home all the time). Pre pandemic, on the weekends I would volunteer dog walk at the Friends of Homeless Animals' shelter in Aldie. I have been volunteering dog walking at the animal shelter for over three years now so I have lots of experience walking different types of dogs and paying attention to each of their individual and unique needs. At the animal shelter the rule was to keep dogs 12 feet from each other when walking. If you have a dog that is a bit leash reactive I have experience making sure they are at a safe distance from other dogs. I grew up with Huskies as a child so I'm use to walking high energy dogs but also love walking older more relaxed dogs as well. I most recently fostered a border collie mix with the Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation so I have experience with high energy dogs that need lots of mental and physical stimulation. I use positive reinforcement ( the act of rewarding a positive behavior) when trying to modify behavior. I enforce whatever rules you have at home for example if you have a no human food or no furniture rule I will enforce that at my house as well if you'd like. If your dog is allowed on furniture they are welcome on our furniture. I have a big backyard with a nice section that has a privacy fence for your pup to run around and play in. Your pup will only be off leash once secured in the fenced in area. I like to have the pups play around in the backyard a bit before walks. A picture of the fenced in section is available for viewing under my pictures. Rest assured your dog with get plenty of exercise and cuddles with me as their sitter! My house is only one story but has three steps or so to get to the main door. Can provide a picture for any dog owners of senior dogs. I only take in one dog family at a time. I would love the chance to walk and play with your dog. Contact me if you have any questions Currently accepting a new client for a once a week doggy day care. Multiple night bookings require either a daycare or overnight stay to make sure the dog is a good fit before you leave out of town.

Emily is great and super flexible! At a time where my pup needs special care I really appreciate it.

Emily was great with my pup! She has her lots of attention and kept me informed through the day. We can’t wait to see you soon!
