Dog care is woven into my day from start to finish. Mornings start with a walk, which sets a calm, positive tone for the whole day. I check in at midday to make sure every pup is comfortable and getting attention, and afternoons are reserved for playtime and activity. As the day winds down, I shift into a quieter evening routine to help dogs feel settled and secure before bed. When needed, I stay overnight so there's always a familiar face nearby. Because I work a flexible schedule, I'm not rushing between commitments. Dogs in my care get genuine, unhurried attention throughout the day, not just the leftover parts of it.

Safety, trust & environment

When I care for a dog in their own home, my goal is simple — keep everything as normal as possible so they barely notice their owner is gone. I follow the routine the owner already has in place: same feeding times, same walking schedule, same house rules. For senior dogs especially, that consistency makes a real difference in keeping them calm and comfortable. For puppies, I stay attentive and keep a close eye to make sure they're safe and not getting into anything they shouldn't. I treat every client's home with care and respect, and owners can count on regular updates and photos throughout the day so they always know their dog is in good hands

Pet care experience

I have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life from energetic puppies who are still figuring out the world, to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I'm comfortable administering medications, so owners of older or special-needs dogs can leave with real peace of mind.

Emily was really helpful and communicative house sitter. We received regular photo updates that put our minds at ease since we were out of country. When we saw our pup Ayla she seemed well adjusted and calmer than when we left her! We will be reaching out in the future to continue working with her in the future and recommend you do as well!

Emily is one of the most caring and responsible people I know. She has grown up around pets and truly loves animals of all kinds. She’s patient, kind, funny, and very attentive to each pet’s needs. Emily loves being outdoors and going on walks, so pets in her care will get plenty of exercise, love, and attention. I would absolutely trust her with my pets and know they would be safe, happy, and well cared for!

Emily is a thoughtful, loving pet care provider. She has demonstrated throughout the years that she can care for pets that require extra care and attention. She has assisted with dog and cat rescue facilities; and she has been a lifelong pet owner and caregiver. Emily is a compassionate person and always gives of herself. She works as a devoted team member and can equally contribute individually to any pet care tasks. I recommend Emily Cole without reservation.

Emily is someone I would always trust with my pets, as I have in the past. She delivers the BEST care and attention towards all animals, as well as being patient and attentive to those animals who need more attention and special care. She is professional as well as a downright animal LOVER, the perfect combination for a pet sitter/walker.
