Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy Tails with Emily!
Hi there! I'm a pet sitter and dog walker with over 20 years of experience. I am a remote worker with a flexible schedule that is ideal for pet sits and walks. More paws = more fun! I offer discounted rates for additional pets. I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. My grandparents owned a farm and petting zoo, so I grew up surrounded by a variety of animals—from goats and chickens to all different breeds of farm dogs. Some of my earliest memories are helping my grandpa with feedings and daily care, which taught me responsibility, patience, and just how much joy animals bring to our lives. At home, I’ve always had pets of my own (both dogs and cats) and trained my puppy—which gave me firsthand experience with patience, routines, and positive reinforcement. I also frequently dog and cat sit for friends, treating their pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s keeping up with high-energy pups (I'm very active!), giving extra TLC to senior dogs, or making sure cats get their playtime and cuddles, I approach every pet with enthusiasm and care. I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you’re away, and I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to spend time with your furry family member. I’d love the chance to get to know you and your pet—let’s make sure they’re happy, safe, and loved while you’re away!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I’m a recent graduate of Harvard University, and I bring that same thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and reliability into the way I care for pets. I know every pet and household has unique needs, so I make it a priority to carefully follow the rules, routines, and preferences you’ve set for your dog or cat. Whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, following training cues, or keeping up with daily exercise and playtime, I ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. My goal is always to create a seamless experience so your furry friend’s routine stays consistent while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Emily and my cat are besties - I love knowing she’s having so much fun while I’m away!
Another great time with Emily! Mo loves her!
Emily was kind, communicative, and sent photos/videos of my cat that reassured me he was doing well and being taken good care of! Moosh and I highly recommend her care.
Tonka had a blast with Emily and she was very thorough and responsible with him!! Would book her again definitely!
Emily was so wonderful to work with and took such great care of Mo! I could tell by the pictures that Mo immediately fell in love and they seemed to have such a good time together! Emily was a great communicator and all-around awesome :)
Emily was wonderful to our puppy Maverick! She was super communicative and kept us in the loop with lots of pics and updates. She took such great care of him and was such a good sport about his puppy tendencies and the extra TLC!

Schedule
I work full-time from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can easily take breaks throughout the day for walks, pets, and playtime. I live a very active lifestyle and love going on lots of walks throughout the day. Would love your pup's company! I am always happy to schedule a commitment-free meet-and-greet prior to any booking :)

- I am happy to meet with new clients before our first scheduled drop in/walk/sit! Please share anything that will help me give your pet the best possible care. This could include special needs, medical conditions, dietary restrictions, training goals, or any behavioral quirks (like leash reactivity, separation anxiety, or shyness around new people/animals). The more I know, the better I can keep your pet safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m always happy to accommodate and follow your routines closely.
