Hard-working animal lover
Pet care experience
I’ve lived with a pet my entire life, including both dogs and cats. I LOVE all animals and have always helped neighbors or friends with pet care, whether that be dog walking, overnight pet sitting, or multiple daily checkins to feed & love on their pets. I have experience administering oral medication (I’ve hidden it in everything from cheese to a spoonful of peanut butter) and IV hydration bags, and I am also more than happy to take care of any basic grooming needs like brushing!
Reviews
Absolutely fantastic service. Emily has a passion for animals and it shows every time she’s with them. Wonderful pictures, descriptive notes, highly recommend.
Emily helped with feeding and administering insulin to our dear family cat- Spooky!!! Emily was prompt, kind and so warm and personable I instantly felt reassured as soon as we met. I am especially grateful to find someone comfortable caring for animals with medical needs. If you need someone to help with your beloved pet rest assured Emily’s got you!
Emily C. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Emily took amazing care of our cat while we were out of town. Our girl tends to be a scaredy cat, but she warmed up to Emily right away!! She sent us thorough updates, which were so very appreciated. We are so happy we booked with her, and have already re-booked. Emily is a delight!!

Safety, trust & environment
I currently live with just one anxious senior cat, so I am not offering in-house services or overnight services elsewhere so that I can preserve my home environment for her. I will follow any (no matter how detailed) care instructions for caring for pets during the day in your own home- I understand how important it can be to keep that routine for our furry loved ones, especially when their person/people are away!
Information Emily C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know anything I can do to make your pet feel comfortable, even if it seems silly or “extra”. I have a special place in my heart for senior and special needs pets and I know they often require a lot of care <3
A typical day
Something I prioritize is sending LOTS of pictures as well as a detailed description of how I spent my time with your pet- as a fellow anxious pet parent, I understand wanting to know as much info as possible.

Availability
I currently work a very standard M-F 8-4 job, so any time in the early morning or evening on weekdays and any time on weekends I am free to stop by and care for your pet.
