I work Monday - Thursday at the hospital and have short mid-day lunch breaks, but if you live within 5 minutes of the hospital, I can often make mid-day potty breaks work with my schedule. During my non-working hours and on my off days, I am able to spend as much time with your pets as possible.

Information Emily D. would like to know about your pet

I am committed to providing the best care possible for your pet and would love to hear about any special needs or requests ahead of time so I can make sure I am able to accommodate them.

A typical day

I am a very active person so if your dog needs a lot of exercise, I am happy to walk, run, or hike with them to their hearts content. If your animal prefers to stay in and cuddle, I definitely am 100% okay with that as well.

Pet care experience

Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I’ve had all types of pets ranging from dogs and cats to horses and reptiles and have 15+ years of experience in pet sitting. I have extensive experience with horses and farm animals as well, through riding, competing, and training horses for most of my life. My 1.5-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog, Ruger, comes with me to any stays that I book. He is very well behaved and friendly with all animals. When I am not at your house (at work, errands, etc.), he goes back to stay at my house. If you have ANY questions at all about me or my services, feel free to reach out and I would love to get to know you and your furry friend! I work Monday – Thursday at the hospital and have short mid-day lunch breaks, but if you live within 5 minutes of the hospital, I can often make mid-day potty breaks work with my schedule.

Emily was amazing! Treated our dog like a prince and even taught him how to take long walks! Reliable, great communicator, and will definitely book again :)

Emily was amazing and would highly recommend. She was attentive, engaged and very responsive. She was great with our high energy large breed and patient with our geriatric small breed. She left our house clean and orderly.
