Availability
I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the day. When petsitting at your home, I can be there all day if you have wifi and a place for me to use my laptop, or I can pop in during the day and stay overnight.

About Emily D.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always try to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, going on regular walks, playing, administering basic medications, or simply providing companionship, I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs and personality. Safety is my top priority. I make sure doors, gates, harnesses, and leashes are secure, and I closely supervise pets during walks and outdoor time. I also understand the importance of following any instructions you provide regarding your pet's care, behavior, or medical needs. When staying in a client's home, I treat both the pets and the home with the utmost respect. I'm tidy, responsible, and communicative, and I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

Experienced Dog Walker & Sitter
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who grew up around dogs and puppies thanks to my dad, a responsible dog breeder. Caring for dogs was a big part of my life from an early age, and I gained hands-on experience with dogs of different breeds, ages, and personalities. I grew to love cats as well when my best friend adopted two cats and we all lived together for several years. Since then, I've had the pleasure of pet sitting for puppies, dogs, and cats for friends, family, and clients. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are happy and well cared for while you're away. As an animal lover who's new to the Boston area and currently unable to have pets in my apartment, pet sitting is a wonderful way for me to spend time with animals while helping pet owners travel or work with peace of mind.

Reviews
Emily took care of my two cats for years, and I trusted her enough to pay her to come by during the day, stay overnight, and handle feeding and everything else they needed. I also had a dog for about a year while I was dating my boyfriend, and she took care of him too, all while juggling the cats, who could definitely be a handful at times. She was always reliable and caring which made a huge difference because my cats are literally my entire world!!!
I used to work very long hours as a lawyer and I could always trust Emily to take care of my puppy while I was at work. She was always so good and attentive with him so I felt far less guilty about being away for too long. She’d stop by for walks, play with him, and make sure he had everything he needed.
Emily watched my two cavapoos while she was in college, and I always knew they were in good hands with her. Sometimes she stayed overnight, and other times she just came by to walk them, depending on what I needed. They had special meals and medication that had to be given on schedule, and she always made sure everything got done. She was reliable, easy to work with, and my dogs really liked her.
Emily is extremely reliable and on time. She has watched my cat, Samson and my snake, Yue multiple times over the past few years. Each time all of the instructions are followed and Samson loved being watched by her! Overall I highly recommend her, she reliable, on time, following instructions, connects and is very gentle and sweet with pets.
