Information Emily C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs or medication’s that need to be administered. Please also let me know if they are friendly with other dogs or if there are certain people or activities said they do not enjoy.

A typical day

They will have all the fun new sniffs to experience while they are on a walk on a new route. We will play lots of fetch if they enjoy that. If they are able to be taken in the car, I would love to take them for a drive.

Nurse with a love for animals

Pet care experience

I have taken care of pets since I was eight years old. I have been dog and cat sitting for neighbors and coworkers for the last 10 years. I am also a nurse, so I am comfortable giving medication‘s to pets if they need it. I love all types of furry animals.

Emily did an amazing job. We are thankful to have had her watching our dog and will be using her again.

Emily was great! I was going to be out of town for four days and wanted someone to stop in and check on my cat. Henry is somewhat shy with strangers, but Emily was able to befriend him very quickly, and she was kind enough to share photos and updates about how he was doing. Communication was great and I couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter. Highly recommend!

Emily is wonderful. She is thoughtful, professional and friendly. She took the dogs for walks and played with them outside and they loved her. She even changed the sheets and left everything sparkling clean. We highly recommend her!

Look no further, Emily is the best! This was our first time using a dog sitting service and I’m so happy to have found Emily. She took such loving care of our two Cavaliers and our home for four days while we traveled. She is respectful, considerate, and went above and beyond what was asked. She stayed beyond the time we gave her so we didn’t have to worry about the dogs if our plane happened to get delayed. She was diligent about the medications that one dog was on and when we got back she had already taken care of their dinner and evening walk for us and in addition had done the dishes and even washed the sheets. I will not hesitate to ask for her services next time we need a pet sitter.
