Safety, trust & environment

I have lots of personal experience with elderly dogs and have a special place in my heart for them. Having a dog that was diagnosed with Cushings and severe separation anxiety, I am well equipped to handle medical needs or just provide comfort for any animal who needs it.

Information Emily D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if they have any behavioral issues before hand especially if it involves other animals or people. I want to provide the best experience for you and your animals so this would be great help

A typical day

Depending on the animal I like to take them for long walks or easy hikes if they are able. I also enjoy just relaxing with them if that’s what they prefer.

Pet care experience

I’ve been pet sitting ever since I was little. Friends and family often trust their pets to me while they are away. I specialize in elderly dogs and have lots of patience when it come to dogs with special needs or medications

Emily went above and beyond in taking care of our senior cat! She was able to give our cat all her meds and provide us with great updates.

Emily was fantastic! There were some hiccups getting into my building and she was so patient waiting for me to respond to figure it out. Highly recommend.

Emily is so attentive and good with my animals. I have a dog and a cat and she gives each one the care they need while I’m away. I’ve never had to worry or rush home while she is with them.
