Pet care experience

100% attention for your dog!

I have been a dog owner and lover for fifteen years! I have experience with many different breads ranging from a beagle to a black lab. My pet care experience includes taking care of all the basic needs for a dog and more! I also have experience administering medicine and with different kinds of food. I have experience with varying ages up till 18 years old. I have extensive experience with senior dogs as well. I am available most of the time during the day and night! I know many parks and dogs parks in the Philadelphia area that are safe and fun for all breeds and ages. I love cuddling, walking, playing and all things dogs. I promise to take care of your dog like it was my own.

Emily is terrific with our dog! We've left our dog with Emily multiple times. Emily is always very responsive and easy to communicate with, and our dog is always really happy to spend time with Emily!

Our dog Lindsey had a great stay with Emily for one week while we were on vacation. Emily is obviously a dog lover, and I felt very comfortable leaving Lindsey with her. Emily is easy to communicate with, and very accommodating. I highly recommend her, and will use her again!

Emily babysat my dog (a lab) when I was gone for vacation for a week. I trusted her completely taking on this responsibility. Emily is truly so kind and caring to anyone she meets, and it transcends into her love for animals. Anytime after that Emily has seen my dog, he is jumping for joy to see her because he remembers her!
