Pet care experience
I worked in the pet care industry for 4 years, gaining experience in training, reading dog behavior, administering medication (including insulin injections) and understanding what makes a dog go home happy and healthy at the end of every stay. I also fostered dogs in my home for two years and have worked with all sorts of personalities and socialization preferences. I decided to care for pets out of my home instead of staying in the pet care industry because it allows me to spend more time with my own pups and provide individual attention to visiting pups left in my care. We have a spacious fenced in back yard for dogs to play in. If your pup is social they will enjoy romping with our goofy resident Golden who loves making new friends. If they prefer the company to people instead of dogs we can accommodate letting them have their own separate space away from our dog and give them individual playtime in our yard. We can also go for walks around the neighborhood - we live in a quiet suburban community that makes the perfect environment for calming daily walks. I understand that dogs are family and I promise to treat your pup as such. I encourage you to message me with any questions or concerns you might have about your dog's stay with me.
Reviews
Emily took amazing care of my senior dog, and sent the best updates!
Emily did amazing with Bambi. I really appreciate how comfortable she makes Bambi feel in her home. She really goes the extra mile!
Emily took care of our 4 month old Labrador while we traveled for a week. Put simply, Emily gets it. She gave our boy the special attention and care a Labrador puppy needs, and sent us daily updates so we knew our guy was doing well. Beyond that, her dog Padfoot helped mentor our little guy, and he came back to us with some maturity that he picked up from hanging with his new friend. Could not recommend Emily more highly!
Emily is amazing with bambi! She picked her up from daycare, and was able to keep her at her at house last minute for the night. Bambi is normally a shy and scared dog but I feel like Bambi felt very welcomed and happy at Emily’s house.
