I will love your pet like my own!

Pet care experience

I have ample experience dog sitting & dog watching many family pets. I have watched up to four dogs at one time. I consider myself to be loving and caring. I pay attention to detail and the dogs body language. My biggest concern is that the dog feels safe and comfortable. *Please note that my pricing is not a “one size fits all.” I have price ranges based on the level of effort and expectation. I am more than willing to work with clients regarding pricing and adjust within a certain price range.

I was really anxious about leaving our pets with a “stranger,” but Emily immediately felt like a friend. She is the perfect blend of accountability and flexibility. She treated our dog’s ear infection daily as instructed, and she handled both a surprise visit from utility workers and a surprise dogfood delivery with ease. She kept our energetic spaniel busy and happy while we were gone. I received lots of pictures and overall communication was excellent. Emily really aims to please, and when we returned everything was just as we left it - better in some ways actually! Thanks again, Emily!

Emily was very accommodating and provide great care and attention with my "boys". My dogs were always excited to stay when I dropped them off in the morning. I had zero complaints and will surely re-book when I am back in the area!

Emily went above and beyond for her drop-in visit. She followed instructions exactly and left everything in perfect order. She is so sweet and it is easy to see that she loves animals. Our pup was worn out and perfectly content when we arrived home. Emily has done a lot to put my mind at ease about booking a longer sit. Thanks Emily!

Emily is great to work with. She’s very attentive and helpful. She is great communicating, sending updates and pictures. She was also great at making sure our fur baby was eating his food and drinking water as well as having nice walks and getting lots loving. This is the second time we have worked with Emily and we wouldn’t hesitate working with her again in the future. She is doggie approved! 🐾. Thank you, Emily, for the time and love you have extended to our household.

Safety, trust & environment

I always start by finding out the dogs exact routine and writing that routine down. This includes food, medicine, time outside, bathroom schedule, sleeping and whatever else. I try to keep everything as normal and seamless as possible for the dog when watching them. I let my dogs sleep with me and sit with me on furniture. I cherish the snuggles and affection that my dogs give me.

Information Emily D. would like to know about your pet

My pricing will vary based on multiple factors. Please give me as much detail as possible. For example, my prices will increase if you want me to go to your house more then once a day for visits and walks. Each time I go over I’ll have to pause my day to do so (unless I’m staying at your house).

A typical day

Play fetch outside and play inside. Anything to get the dog excited and happy. I give lots of praise and affection. I also give lots of belly rubs if allowed.
