As a stay-at-home mom, I’m so happy to be able to keep our dogs company! We typically go for walks morning, afternoon, and evening, and spend plenty of family time outside. I love how flexible this lifestyle is for us! I am also excited to show my kids how we can turn our love of animals into a useful service for our community!

Since we are a family of 4 + Gertie, we cater to dogs who are spoiled rotten and love to be around people and other dogs.

Your dog will be a member of our family, being loved by mom, dad, and 2 young energetic boys all day long! We will go in at least 3 walks a day, cuddle on the couch, and play in the yard.

Pet care experience

I know first hand how hard it is to leave your dog in someone else’s care. I have spent my vacation time away wondering if she’s being pet, loved, cuddled, and talked to, wondering if she’s anxious or sad, hoping she knows we will be back soon. If this sounds like you and your dog, we would love to welcome your pet into our family. You can enjoy your time away knowing that your dog will have a home away from home, complete with snuggles from our kids, and plenty of playtime with our dog Gertie- she loves dogs just as much as we all do! We will play in the yard, go on walks, cuddle on the couch, and even let your dog sleep in the bed, if that’s what they’re into! I figure if I’m walking one dog at least 3 times a day, why not add a furry friend or two? At our house, you can rest assured, your pet will be loved, a little spoiled, and taken care of as if it were our own.

Goose stayed with Emily and her family while I was in Europe and I had great peace of mind knowing that Goose was being well taken care of (and having a blast) while I was gone! Emily was very communicative and sent me pictures and videos of Goose!

Rui had so much fun staying with Emily and her family! I got plenty of updates throughout the week too. I’m so thankful for Emily and the kindness she gave Rui throughout his stay.

I cannot say enough except for how lucky I am to have Emily help walk my babies while I am at work. She does great with large dogs as well as my little 16 year old. Do not try to steal her away from us but if you are lucky enough to have her fit into your schedule, I would highly recommend her.
