Pet care experience

*NEW BOARDING CLIENTS: Please give me at least 3 days (72hrs) of notice before your dog’s stay. Please read through my profile before sending a request!* Recent graduate of URI’s Animal Science program & passionate animal lover, you can be assured your fur baby gets the best quality of care. I have owned & cared for pets (dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, etc.) for over 10 years. I am knowledgeable and have a passion for animal behavior & training. I have practice in observing canine body language and recognizing when a dog may be feeling anxious or uncomfortable with a situation. As an aspiring dog trainer, I am a huge advocate for positive, reward based methods of training & handling dogs. As well as providing physical exercise (walks, playtime) I will also provide plenty of mental exercise as well (food puzzles/games, training, etc.) to keep your pet’s stay with me enriching & filled with positive experiences. Your dog can look forward to plenty of fun, love, snuggles, belly rubs and/or scratchies where ever he or she likes it. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! :) Check out my Facebook page: Emily's Pup Sitting & Walking - Rover.com I will post plenty of pictures of your pet's time with me there! *If you have any objections to your pet's pictures being posted, please let me know!*

Thank you Emily for taking such good care of our kitties while we were away. We had peace of mind knowing they were in your good hands. The extra time you took to play with them clearly made a difference. They were looking for you after we got home. 😻 You’re the best!!

Information Emily G. would like to know about your pet

Is he or she housebroken? How long do they usually go between potty breaks? Any food allergies? Medications? What vet do you use? I am a short drive away from Compassionate Care & Lincoln Animal Hospital. Are they good with other dogs? Cats? (I have 2 dogs & a cat) Does he/she walk nicely on leash? Are there any behaviors you’d like me to work on with them? Is there anything your dog is reactive to or fearful of? Bikes/Cars? Other dogs? People? I will make sure to keep clear of anything that scares your dog, keeping them under threshold and comfortable. Are they a power chewer or destroyer? If so, please let me know & pack a few toys that are safe for your dog to have. Favorite games/toys/treats?

A typical day

I will provide fun, stimulating walks which will allow your dog to sniff & explore while getting the exercise they need. I live right down the street from the local bikepath, and not far from Chase Farm, Lincoln Woods & The Cumberland Monastary: all great places for a walk or hike with your pup! If your dog is a puller, I am willing to work with him/her on loose leash walking and will always be sure to reward good behavior on walks w/ sniffing opportunities and yummy treats. I have a fully fenced in yard for supervised playtime & a smaller fenced in area where dogs can be let out to potty. Your dog will enjoy lots of playtime (tuggy, fetch, hide & seek or whatever they like!) and enrichment opportunities to keep them busy. For the sake of mental enrichment, I'd like to sometimes change it up for meal time: feeding from a Kong, food puzzle or through a training session instead of straight from a bowl. I love training & if you’d like, I’d love to teach your dog a trick or two :)
