Home a lot,active,animal lover

Hello everyone! My name is Emily and I am a huge animal lover. I am located in Cedar Rapids and almost always available. I have about 15 years of experience with both cats & dogs and have 4 dogs of my own. I have 3 little girls who are 6, 5, and 1 😊 We live in a ranch style home and have a fenced in backyard. I am an active person and will give your pet plenty of love and attention. I will also take dogs on walks if they enjoy that. I have never had an owner unhappy with their pets stay. I have a Facebook page as well with pictures, information, and reviews. Please feel free to call or text with any questions or to book.

Sent pictures almost everyday, responded to messages within a couple of hours. My puppy had other dogs to play with and seemed to enjoy her time.

Emily kept me updated on my dogs, and helped out in a tight squeeze when we had to leave town for a funeral.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard so dogs can be out there and play around as much as they want to when we’re home. If they enjoy playing with other dogs I have 1 bigger one and 3 smaller ones. They will be crated whenever we are not home to ensure they’re safe unless they’re used to free roaming and won’t have accidents or be destructive.

Pets

A typical day

I love to keep the dogs happy with lots of play time and then cuddles once they are tired out! They will have fun playing with the other dogs and I have plenty of toys for them to enjoy too!

Please let me know what kind of care your pet needs ahead of time! I am willing to handle dogs that need special care. I have experience with seniors, deaf dogs, & ones that need medication regularly. All are welcome ☺️
