Pet care experience

Lots of love!

I have been caring for animals my whole life. I have 3 years of veterinary technician experience and have worked with shelters in the states as well as other countries. I am also a dog and cat foster mom! I have experience working with exotics including reptiles, amphibians and birds. I've always searched for jobs that revolve around animals because they are my passion. Caring for dogs and cats is the perfect job for me, I enjoy every second of it. I pride myself in providing each pet with loving, individual care. I have a large fenced backyard and usually have a foster dog or two for your pup to play with as well as lots of love and attention!

Highly recommend Emily, she is great. Very easy to communicate with and sent lots of photos of Sandy's stay. Her own dog, Teddy, was very sweet also. Wouldn't hesitate to book with her again!

Emily took great care of our newly adopted dog Violet, was very communicative and so easy to work with. Violet had a blast playing with Emily’s dog! We will definitely book with Emily again!

Missy spent a week with Emily and had a wonderful stay! We recieved lots of pictures and updates and MIssy had a great time playing with her dog during her visit. We can't wait to use Emily again.

Emily is always a great pup sitter. My little guy is old and grumpy but he feels right at home with her.

Emily was easy to contact for a last minute booking for my pup Charlie. I was out of town until late Sunday and she was able to accommodate a later pickup that evening.

I love hosting dogs at my home! I cater to each dogs needs and enjoy running, hiking and swimming your pups if they're interested or just lounging on the couch.

Pets

A typical day

I have a large fenced yard for your pup to play. I enjoy taking the dogs on hikes. In addition to that, the canal is close by and perfect for long walks/runs. There are also many hiking trails in the area.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Emily can host up to 1 pet per night
If your dog or cat is coming to my house my only requirement is that they meet my dog Teddy and we make sure everyone gets along! If I have a foster pet we’ll do introductions as well. Dogs don't need to be crate trained to stay with me. If I'm taking care of your dog in your home I only ask what their temperament is like so I can be aware. I have extensive experience working with dog/leash reactive dogs, I just need to know in advance.
