I lOVE animals and a aspiring vet!

Pet care experience

I have always loved animals! It is impossible to put into words how much I adore and care about animals! I am a current animal science major minoring in zoology working my way to becoming a wildlife veterinarian. I have an ESA kitty myself, have experience in dog sitting, have helped train my dogs at home, and volunteered at a no-kill shelter socializing, playing, cleaning, and just hanging out with the cats and kittens. I am constantly looking for opportunities to love any type of animal! I am best with dogs, cats, and rodents. I am especially fond of older cats and dogs, they are the sweetest! I am also okay with giving medication if given the directions, like a pill or something. I am very active; I love walks and hiking if any puppies would love to go on hikes I am down to clown!

Emily did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away for a two week vacation. I will be hiring her again.

Emily was super attentive and sweet! We were able to schedule a meet and greet right away and she did a great job taking care of my cat. She sent photos every day, left things clean and organized, and notified me of any concerns right away. I already recommended her to a friend and would recommend her to anyone for overnights or drop in care!

Emily came by to feed and hangout with our cat while we were camping. She sent lots of cute pics and did a great job. She’s very enthusiastic and sweet. :)

Emily was incredible in every possible way! Our puppy loved her, our Guinea pigs got a pedicure on her watch, and our house was returned to us cleaner than we left it! Emily herself has a very sweet personality and her demeanor is calm, invested, and so genuinely caring. She listened well, and we knew we were asking a lot of her but she delivered above and beyond what we could have expected with a puppy in the hot July heat. Her communication was great. Her eagerness to make us feel at ease while traveling was comforting and we would (and we will) hire her again without question! Only some people in this world are gifted with a soul made to connect with animals- Emily is one of those people. She was immediately so interested in getting to know Cookie (our puppy), and our 3 guniea pigs and made every effort to learn their personalities to better serve them and help them navigate a new person in their lives. She was delight. Hire her! You won’t regret it. :)

My kitty cat merlin is spoiled rotten! He gets the best foods and gets played with daily! He probably eats better than I do haha. I will treat your pets the same as I would treat my own. With the utmost love, care, quality foods, and playtime! I am very accommodating and will do fine with problems, sick, older, younger, and any in-between animals as well. I am a firm believer that when working with animals it is all about mutual respect and trust. So, I will do everything in my power to create a safe, trusting, and respectful environment for any fur baby I meet!

Information Emily D. would like to know about your pet

Any health restrictions/preferences, behavioral things, age, walk time preferred, how they are around other dogs, any medications needed, any no-touch spots, treats they like, and just fun facts about the dog! Like what breed or anything like that.

A typical day

We could go to lakes or streams, go on hikes, walks, to the park, maybe even dog parks! I love fetch and even the occasional keep away. They will get all the belly rubs, treats, and love they want!
