Big dog lover

Hi! I'm Emily. I've always been a big animal lover. I grew up with cats but helped take care of neighbor's dogs when I was younger. After my husband and I got married, we adopted our first rescue, Aggie. We adopted our 2nd rescue, Daisy a few years later. I've taken care of several dogs whether it be for family or friends throughout the years. I love the loyalty and joy they bring. I've watched several friends' dogs and regularly dog sat for a German Shepherd while living overseas. I've also had the rewarding experience of having my late dog, Aggie, CGC (canine good citizen) certified to do pet therapy through Therapy Dogs International and the Red Cross. I loved how happy it made people on our visits to hospitals and nursing homes. Dogs bring me so much happiness and joy. :)

Emily treated Mattie like her own. Her dog was super friendly and the two dogs enjoyed each other during Mattie's short stay. Mattie and I will definitely be asking to return.

Highly recommend Emily! Goes above and beyond. Emily was very considerate and attentive in the care of our two dogs. Was very respectful of property, keeping a watchful eye on our residence. Emily communicated often and clearly. Will definitely have Emily in mind the next time we need our dogs cared for in our absence.

Emily is an amazing pet sitter!! Our 10 year old dog, Red, was happy, content, and well taken care of for a full week under Emily's care. He loved her and was always excited to see her. She took pictures and sent updates. Emily was accommodating when our schedule changed a couple of times and made sure Red was fine. I never had to worry about Red. Emily goes above and beyond and is very kind as well, she even took our trash bins out for collection day!
