I love taking pups on adventures in nature. I’m happy to follow instructions for pet care in your home carefully. It is important to me that your animals feel comfortable and relaxed and have fun! I enjoy being responsive to their needs and routines.
Information Emily (Forest) C. would like to know about your pet
I’d love to know your animals’ routines, their favorite activities and toys, any special needs they have, if they have any reactivities, and if they need any particular physical or social supports. i have an airborne allergy to natural latex found in bedding/furniture. i ask pet parents to send pics of materials tags on the mattresses, mattress pads/toppers, comforters, and bed pillows in the home and the model of the couch + upholstered furniture. that way i can research to be certain i can safely sit—which i find saves everyone time.

Reviews

Forest did an amazing job watching my dog, Bo, while I was out of town. They kept me up to date on all the happenings around the house and sent daily feedback about Bo. Including pictures and videos! Forest took wonderful care of Bo and asked all the right questions before I headed out of town. I knew they were going to be a perfect sitter and they didn’t disappoint! From quality care, waiting until the heat of the day was past to walk, sending updates and leaving a spotless house… forest was spectacular! If you have the chance to book with forest, I would highly recommend! They took the time to ask about Bo’s needs and my expectations. I knew I was getting quality care with forest. I was welcomed back by one happy healthy pup thanks to forest :)

Forest took amazing care of Jasper, he was tuckered out even when we got home later that day! :) we loved the updates too!
Emily forest is gentle and caring. It is important to them that pets receive love! Emily forest grew up in a home where animals were respected and cared for. They always wanted to make sure animals were safe, fed, played with, and that they felt loved, including dogs, rabbits, chickens, and birds. They are conscientious about doing what they say they will do, being on time, and making sure animals have the care they need. They follow directions for animal care (ie food/animal’s needs) and handle pets with gentleness. People care that their animals are loved, and this is what Emily forest does!
forest is exceptionally warm, kind, and responsible. Their connection, deep attunement to, and play with animals always brings me and my furry pals comfort and ease. Their level of responsibility and care is immeasurable and I am always grateful to call upon them for any of my pet needs and support. It’s rare to find such a genuine, loving soul to love and care for my pet pals. ❤️
