I come with your dog's new BFF!

Would your dog be comforted by being cared for in his/her own home while you are out of town? I'm happy to house-sit and keep your dog's routine uninterrupted. Or do you just have a long day and worried they'll feel neglected? I'm a general animal lover with a weak spot for dogs and getting to know their unique personalities. My work involves a lot of writing which I can do from anywhere. This means I can take adventures midday if your dog likes, or offer snuggles while I work from the couch. I have a lovely 13lb. 3 yr old happy terrier mix Hugo who is generally loved by dogs of all sizes. Dogs who don't like other dogs, like Hugo. He has a wonderful ability to read them and submit and roll onto his back if that is called for, OR go in for some rough & rowdy play if the mood is right. He is tough as nails & super sweet. Ideally your dog would appreciate canine companionship while you are gone, and my guess is you are reading this because you think my pup is a plus. Including Hugo is critical for overnights, but for day activities I'm a happy to do those alone, if your that's your dog preference. A nice midday break is typically heading to Woodland Park, Ravenna, Golden Gardens, or if we are lucky to be in a new neighborhood for us, explore that. What neighborhood do you live in? I'm very flexible, responsible and accommodating to each client. Let's see if our dogs click. For Walks: $20 for 1/2 an hour $30 for an hour

Emily was great with our Rosie. Rosie can be a little shy at first, but she settled in quickly and it was clear Emily knows how to care for a dog. We got great updates and communication throughout the day. We would recommend Emily, and would definitely use her services again.

Our elderly dog had another great time with Emily and Hugo staying over. I can get a little anxious leaving my old one, but Emily is super dependable with medication schedules and our pooch was very relaxed when we arrived home. Thank you, Emily!

Emily and Hugo were lovely guests in our home caring for our elderly pooch who needed lots of love and daily medication. She sent lots of great pics, was very responsive, accommodating our later arrival home, and left our house looking clean and tidy on our return. We won't hesitate to call Emily in the future.
