Kind and Caring Dog Watcher

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm with numerous farm animals, cats, and dogs. Our dogs have always been members of our family and we love them very much. We had two family dogs when I was a little girl, a Bernese Mountain Dog and an English Springer Spaniel. When I was 12 my parents let me pick out my own puppy to train and raise. I ended up getting two Australian Shepherds because we couldn't choose between the two. I spent all my time training them and taking them on hikes. Five years ago, after my previous Australian Shepherds died, I got two more, and once again, trained them. They sit, stay, lay down, wait, come, and will sit and wait until I give them permission to eat at meal times. They are very well trained and it's something I'm really proud of. I love animals and I love working with them. I would describe myself as a kind but stern when necessary dog sitter. I've dog sat for family and family friends over the years. I've also never met a dog that I didn't get along with. I would love to become a friend with your dog(s) and help out with its care however needed. I'm in my twenties and have a car, so if needed I can come to your house to dog walk or dog sit. I'm currently taking classes online while pursuing a career in nursing so my schedule is very flexible. I wish everyone the best!

Emily has grown up around animals her whole life. We have 3 dogs and 3 cats. She has also cared for and rode horses for many years. She is loving and patient with all animals. She has trained our dogs to sit and wait before they start eating along with other basic commands. She has been involved with taking our pets to the vet, giving them medication and performing any treatments they may need. She is very responsible and dependable.

Emily was the best pet sitter we have ever had! Our puppy loved her! She is very knowledgeable of all things dog and their needs. Emily was here on time every time and was able to stay later on a moment's notice when our plans changed. I could tell by our puppy's enthusiasm the second time Emily visited that she had a wonderful experience with Emily. Emily is 100% dependable, responsive and professional. She is the first person we call when we need a dog sitter. We can enjoy our time away knowing that our pup is in good hands!
