A typical day

A typical day as a pet sitter is filled with fun and engaging activities for the pets! Here’s how it might unfold: **Morning:** - **Feeding Time:** Start the day by feeding the pets their breakfast, ensuring they have fresh water. - **Morning Walk:** Take the dogs for a morning walk in the neighborhood or a nearby park, allowing them to explore and sniff around. - **Playtime:** After the walk, engage the pets in some playtime. This could involve fetch, tug-of-war, or interactive toys to keep them stimulated. **Midday:** - **Training Sessions:** Incorporate short training sessions to reinforce good behavior. Use treats for positive reinforcement. - **Socialization:** If there are other pets, arrange a safe playdate to help them socialize and burn off some energy. - **Quiet Time:** After all the excitement, allow some quiet time where the pets can relax, either by cuddling or letting them nap. **Afternoon:** - **Outdoor Fun:** Organize a fun outdoor activity, such as a trip to a dog park or a nature trail, where the pets can run freely and enjoy the fresh air. - **Hydration Break:** Ensure they stay hydrated, especially after outdoor play. **Evening:** - **Dinner Time:** Feed them their evening meal and check if they need any medications. - **Interactive Play:** Spend some time with interactive toys or puzzles that challenge their minds. - **Cuddle Time:** Wind down the day with some cuddles on the couch, brushing their fur, or just relaxing together. **Night:** - **Final Potty Break:** Take the dogs out for one last potty break before bedtime. - **Rest:** Settle them in their sleeping area, ensuring they are comfortable and safe for the night. Each day as a pet sitter is unique, filled with laughter, love, and plenty of furry fun!

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Emma and I’m looking to help care for pets while I’m home during the week days! I am currently working nights, as well as in night school while raising a family. I grew up with multiple dogs and cats in our family home and have experience caring for animals on all levels. In a home of our own in Falmouth, we currently have a dog of our own and a beautiful fenced in yard we’d love to get more use out of and playtime for our girl. I am trustworthy, patient, energetic, and love to get outside no matter the weather.

I am so thankful for Emily! She's fantastic with the pups, cares for them like they are her own!! We're so lucky to have her! She has the experience our pups need with a loving hand but strong arm (and that's what it takes to walk 1 of our dogs, haha)! Would definitely recommend her!!

Emily is an extremely caring and responsible pet caregiver. She is a naturally kind and nurturing person and her love for animals is clearly evident in the high quality of care that she provides! I would highly recommend Emily for pet sitting and dogwalking - she is highly trustworthy and will make sure your pet is given so much care and love.

Emily has a remarkable knack for taking exceptional care of dogs, regardless of their size. She understands that each dog, big or small, has their own unique personality and needs. For larger dogs, she ensures they get ample exercise, often taking them for long walks or runs. For smaller dogs, she pays close attention to their dietary needs and provides plenty of opportunities for social interaction to boost their confidence.. with a warm heart and a gentle hand, Emily treats each dog under her care as if they were her own.. My mastiff & My Australian shepherd just adore Emily.
