Safety, trust & environment

I personally have a dog door with a fenced yard for my two dogs and have spent a lot of time training them so I trust them with the dog door open when I leave the house. For other people's pets, I will of course follow their rules if they crate or leave them free roaming in the house.

Emily has been an absolute lifesaver during my busiest travel seasons. With a demanding schedule that keeps me on the road often, I needed someone I could fully trust to care for my special needs dogs—and she exceeded every expectation. Her attention to detail is unmatched. She carefully followed all routines, medications, and specific care instructions with precision, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. But what truly sets Emily apart is the genuine love and compassion she shows. My dogs weren’t just cared for—they were comforted, understood, and treated like her own. Knowing they were in such capable and caring hands allowed me to focus on work without worry. I can’t recommend Emily enough for anyone needing high-quality, attentive, and heartfelt care for their pets.

Emily is the kind of person dogs instantly love—and it’s so easy to see why. She is the most amazing dog mom to Troop and Zona, and the way she cares for them is so genuine and full of love. She’s also taken care of my dog Stevie, and I swear Stevie never wants to leave her, she treats her like one of her own 💞 Emily has such a natural connection with dogs, and you can truly feel how much she loves them in the way she shows up for them. If anyone was meant to be a dog owner it’s her. I trust her completely and couldn’t recommend her more 🤍🐾

I have known Emily Cuzick for almost 11 years. She has a warm heart, a super friendly personality and is very attentive. She naturally makes people and pets feel very comfortable around her. When she comes over, my own dog prefers to sit and be around her. She has watched Coco more times than I can count over the years and I am very grateful to have peace of mind that Coco is safe and in great care.

If there’s one person I trust completely when it comes to dogs, it’s Emily. She is, without a doubt, the biggest dog lover I’ve ever met. Her love for animals isn’t just something she says, it shows in everything she does. Every dog she meets is instantly treated like family, with so much patience, kindness, and genuine care. Emily has such a natural way with dogs. They’re drawn to her calm, loving energy, and you can tell she truly understands them. Whether it’s going the extra mile to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy, or just showering them with affection, she treats every single dog like her own. I always joke with her and tell her I want to be one of her dogs, because they are so spoiled and loved!! Anyone would be incredibly lucky to have Emily caring for their dog. She’s responsible, trustworthy, and has the biggest heart- especially when it comes to animals. I honestly couldn’t recommend her more!
