I am a teacher so during the summer I have lots of extra time. In the fall, I revise my hours. I’ll make sure your dog gets good exercise and some snuggles.

Information Emily D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog is good with other dogs and/or kids. I have no breed preferences. I also need to know that your dogs are up to date on their flea and tick control, as well as their vaccines.

A typical day

I will take your dog on a fun walk and keep up with their pace. I will use treats if you want and make sure to clean up any messes.

Pet care experience

I am an animal lover with three dogs, three bunnies, a horse, and an axolotl. The last two don’t live at my house, but they get lots of love just the same. I’m looking forward to reopening pet sitting at my house, but as of right now one of my dogs is recovering post surgery and is not allowed off leash. Once she is, very happily host your dogs and treat them like family at my house. In the meantime, I’m excited to take your dog down as many walks this weekend. I’m always very safe when I walk them and give them lots of attention and treats. I’m also willing to discount walks if you are OK with my dog coming with me and your pup. She loves everyone, and has boundless energy. I am a Spanish teacher at a local middle school and during the school year I have to walk around my work schedule, but I will always do my best to accommodate you. Weekends and breaks I am off can usually help out a few more families. My 10-year-old daughter often likes to join me on walks and visits as well. She has never met a dog. She doesn’t love it. Typically all dogs love her back. She is definitely a Rover walker in training.

Emily is absolutely amazing. It’s clear she loves animals and she has a way with them! We’ve been trying to socialize our pup by having more people drop by and Emily was so understanding about the situation! She’s been great with our dog, Rigatoni. She’s patient, kind and knowledgeable!
