Enthusiastic stay-at-home dog mom!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a stay at home dog mom and experienced foster mom. I’ve decided to start dog sitting because of how many people I know who have a hard time finding sitters who won’t leave their dogs alone all day while the sitter works. I want your dog to have a blast while they stay with me. They’ll be treated as one of my own. Whether they enjoy car rides, trail walks, or whatever it may be, I’m down. Since my 14 year old dog is almost blind, I prefer older and calmer smallish dogs for sitting in my own house. I’m happy to sit for anyone else in their own home. I’ll even mow the lawn and give you a ride to the airport if you need!

Emily is the best! Katie always enjoys her stay and I know she is well taken care of. I also love getting pictures and updates daily! We will definitely use Emily again in the future!!

Emily was absolutely the best!!! My dogs are my family and she took SUCH good care of them!! I was away for 2 weeks where she stayed in my home with my pups. She sent updates daily, pictures, and house was perfect when I returned. I’m kind of a particular person about things and my boys definitely have some quirks but she was so accommodating and took it all in stride. It’s always tough to find someone you can trust in your home and your fur babies but Emily was wonderful!! Her reviews spoke volumes initially and meeting her I could tell she was a dog person. I know my boys were well cared for and she will be my go to sitter in the future! Highly recommend!!

Emily has stayed at our house to take care of our family "Zoo" two different times. Our pets were all happy and healthy when we came home, she sent updates while we were gone and she left the house neat and tidy after her visit. I appreciated her daily communications and updates! We will definitely have Emily come to sit again!

Information Emily G. would like to know about your pet

All breeds welcome! We don’t discriminate in this house. My first and foremost question would be your dog’s comfort with socialization. If I’m sitting in my house, I have 3 dogs (2 of whom are seniors). If I’m sitting in your house, I need to know how your dog will react if we run into another dog on a walk etc. I’d be curious about personality, if they like their space I can set up a crate for them. If they like to be with people they’re welcome on the furniture. I guess my three main questions would be socialization, energy level, activities they enjoy. Obviously any medical concerns as well. I’m very experienced with seniors, and have had dogs with issues like Addison’s and Cushings Disease.

A typical day

Any activities you think they’d enjoy! There’s a nice 3 mile path nearby that we enjoy. If that’s too long we’re happy to change it up and do shorter walks around the neighborhood. If your dog likes car rides cool- I’m always happy to go on a coffee run with a buddy. We have a doggy stroller for elderpups or small dogs who like to be outside but not walk a lot. We enjoy spending time outside and are happy to do anything with your dog. Dogs who need more than 3-4 miles walking a day probably won’t be a great fit with me.
