Highlights
Pet care experience
Wagging tails, expert walks!
Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and it’s something I truly enjoy. I’ve helped neighbors and family with walking, feeding, bathing, and general care, and I’ve also fostered kittens. I’m experienced with pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors who need a gentler approach. Spending time with animals means a lot to me, and I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Emily always take such great care of my pup. She provides a lot of updates and photos.
Emily watched my very nervous/anxious dog for 5 days. Tons of trail walks and photos every day. House is immaculate. Trying to book her again. Five stars!

Schedule
I’m a full-time student with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or check-ins, I can adjust my routine to match your pet’s needs and keep their schedule consistent. My schedule is especially open during the summer, with even more daytime availability.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, their safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priority. I take the time to follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and any medications—so your pet feels secure and well cared for. During walks, I prioritize leash safety, stay aware of our surroundings, and choose calm, pet-friendly routes. In your home, I’m respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and ensure everything is secure while you’re away. For boarding and daycare, I offer a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention and supervision. I have a small fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and I’m happy to take dogs to a nearby dog park if requested. I’m mindful of each dog’s comfort level and energy, and I tailor care to match. I provide consistent photo updates for walks, meals, medications, and playtime so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to offer dependable, thoughtful care that gives you complete peace of mind—and helps your pet feel safe, relaxed, and truly at home.
A typical day
A typical day is centered around keeping your pet happy, active, and comfortable. For dogs, that can include walks around the neighborhood, playtime in the yard, and fun activities like fetch or frisbee. If your dog enjoys exploring, I’m happy to take them on a short outing to a new, safe area or to a nearby dog park for extra enrichment. I tailor each day to your pet’s energy level and personality—whether that means active play, relaxed companionship, or a mix of both. I also enjoy reinforcing good habits and can work on simple, fun tricks during our time together. For cats, I focus on a calm and cozy routine with playtime, enrichment, and plenty of attention (or space, depending on their personality). My goal is to make each day feel engaging, balanced, and as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible.
