I’ve never met a dog I didn’t like.

Pet care experience

I've always had a love animals of all shapes and sizes. I studied Biology in undergrad, which was motivated for my love on animals and conservation. One of my dreams has always been to be a wildlife caretaker. I’ve been in charge of taking care of chickens and bunnies amongst other things. I’ve been a caretaker for people who have ducks, dogs, cats, sheep, goats, and horses. It’s more than just a game of fetch; I understand that your pet has it’s own personality and I need to foster a relationship with them. I spend most of my time outdoors and am willing to bring your dog along on walks, hikes, and even bike rides.

Having Emily stay at my home and take care of Hank my GSD went so smoothly! When I returned home, Hank greeted me as if I had just been gone for a few hours. That's a great sign that he was a happy camper with Emily as his companion. I will definitely have Emily back to take care of Hank next time I go out of town.

Emily is great! Our dogs and kitty were obviously well-taken care of while we were away and were visibly content when we got home. They all liked Emily when they met her! House was left clean and it was easy to get in contact with her, if needed.

Thank you so much Emily! Your care for Chevy was phenomenal and he seems happier and more upbeat now due to his time with you. For everyone reading this.... I have a little guy who is pretty scared of the world, he is super loving and cuddly... but, just gets a little scared of loud noises and other dogs specifically. I needed something with a kind, loving, and caring heart to make sure my little guy was happy and loved while I was away. Emily was amazing! Much appreciated! She even got to my house at 5am on Day 1 so I could make my crazy early flight. Thanks again!

Emily is great with animals of all types, shapes and sizes! She is very loving, caring, and trustworthy. Emily is definitely one of the few "animal-magnets" I've ever known. Animals always seem to gravitate towards her and love her. She is also people-friendly, which is always a plus. ;)

I haven't gotten a dog of my own yet because my life hasn't opened up to that yet. Because of this, I pass on all of my dog-love to my friend's dogs and spoil them. Some have referred to me as a doggy auntie because I often bring my own treats! I do have a cat that I adopted when he was a tiny kitten and has been a huge part of my life for the last year and a half.

Information Emily G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pup is on the older side of life or has special health needs. I'm not shy to work with them, I'd just like to know ahead of time :) I have worked with elderly dogs and some dogs that required multiple medications.

A typical day

I like to spend a lot of free time exploring the area; hiking, walking, biking etc. I live at the edge of the foothills and I enjoy exploring the trails. I’m always down for a game of fetch!
