I live with both my parents and my younger brother. They are the most amazing people and have supported me through growing my business. I'm able to help others by watching their pets while continuing my education thanks to them.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a Fenced yard and 3 fur babies of my own. They are cautious towards new guest but will eventually warm up. I'm located within a community that has big local parks and we have the Castaic Lake around the corner where I could take your pet to on their daily walk. I would provide enrichment in play, treats, & grooming. Any special instructions or requests will be heard and applied.

Information Emily C. would like to know about your pet

As we all know every pet is different and who knows them better than you! There are a couple questions that i feel is important to get the best experience possible. * Frequency of walks * Meal Times * Medications/ Medical History * Emotional Triggers, Separation Anxiety? * Is your pet reactive? * Is your pet allergic to anything? * Is your pet potty trained? *Do they eat specific food? * Likes/Dislikes * Energy Level Feel free to reach out anytime. I am a quick responder im all forms of communication.

A typical day

WHEN YOU BOOK Be sure to bring a blanket or bed that smells like them to reduce anxiety. Also make sure you pack them enough food for their stay. Giving them different types of food and being introduce to a new area can cause stress and loose stool. If you want, you can bring them specific treats if you're not okay with the treats i give them.

Emily provided care for our dog, Mater, and while her initial handling seemed professional, we encountered several issues. Mater was apprehensive during drop-off, but Emily, understanding as a vet tech, managed the situation. However, we were concerned when she mentioned aggressive behavior and a potential need for us to pick him up. This was surprising given his usual good behavior with other sitters. Throughout the weekend, Emily reported that Mater was sweet and happy, though she had isolated him from other dogs due to barking. This isolation was unexpected as Mater typically interacts well with other pets and people. At pick-up, we noticed Mater was excessively thirsty, raising concerns about his care. Additionally, we observed a smell of marijuana in Emily's home, which might have affected Mater’s behavior. We also found that she did not adhere to our care plan, as evidenced by returning more probiotics than expected. Given these factors, we have reservations about recommending Emily's services.

Emily dropped in on our cats while we were out. She had great communication and followed our requests perfectly. Also very friendly to our pets. I highly recommend her.

Emily was amazing! Such great detail and care with our boy Bruce who is still in his silly puppy phase. We loved her constant communication with us and photos. He had a smile on his face the entire time he was there so we know he was properly cared for. Also appreciated the extra training and mental stimulation she provided him. Definitely recommend her service!
