Safety, trust & environment

I understand every animal is unique! No two people are the same and neither are cats and dogs. My goal is to get to know your animal as an individual and provide them with the care that best suits their needs and personality. I may on occasion make suggestions or in some cases make decisions on the fly as necessary, but in the end you know your animal best and I will do my best to follow the routines you've set forth for them!

Information Emily C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what an average day for you and your pet looks like. What do they eat and how much? When do they walk and how far? Do they take any medications? Do they have any quirks? I'll take note of the details and take them into account when looking after your furry family!

A typical day

My goal is to maintain the schedule you've set for your pet. We'll go on walks when you typically take walks, we'll eat when you typically eat. We may play same games if there is a back yard available, or try out some food puzzles as well!

Pet care experience

I'm Emily (They/Them) - though I prefer to be called Fennel. I've always had a love for animals and have worked with them throughout my life! I have volunteered at various animal rescues, shelters, and zoos and through this gained experience with cats, dogs, rodents, reptiles, and insects. I love every sort of critter and it would be my pleasure to care for yours!

Emily was awesome, and took amazing care of my babies! Friendly and easy to work with, social with the fur-babies, and provided timely visits complete with full care and great communication - photos, statuses, and helpful observations! I'll definitely be booking Emily to care for the kids for my next trip! Thanks so much!!

Fennel was great! Will and would hire again. She sent me pictures everyday of my cat and took good care of her and the house.

AMAZIG! Fennel was so caring for Olly and left him in excellent care. He seems much happier than in the past when I’ve had him watched by someone. Thank you again, they’re great!
