Pet care experience

Lover of all sizes

I grew up in a busy household with 2 cats, a dog, and a rabbit (2 at once a few times). I have always been an animal lover and even volunteered at SpokAnimal for a year in highschool. I currently own 4 cats of my own and a hedgehog, just waiting for the right time to add a dog to the mix. I often prefer larger breed dogs and am pitbull and restricted breed friendly. I actually was active on this app with a few repeat clients but due to some personal reasons I had to take a break. I have experience training my own cat to sit, spin and beg for treats so I would be happy to continue training while you are away! I send many photos and videos because I know what it is like to be away from your fur babies. I am willing to pet sit multiple pets even of different species. I have limited experience with farm animals such as horses, goats, and chickens. I currently own a hedgehog and have experience pet sitting for sugar gliders.

Safety, trust & environment

I follow your exact directions. I know from experience that each person cares for their pets differently and I believe it would be a mistake to apply my personal practices to your own animals. However, I am a gentle teacher and will never be comfortable applying force or physical punishments for corrections. Because I have pets of my own I am unable to have animals stay at my own home.

Emily is wonderful. Her communication is great and she went above and beyond to exercise and spend time with our dog. We will definitely use her again.

Emily did a fantastic job house sitting and taking care of my doggo while I was away. She kept in touch and frequently sent photos of my happy pup. I would definitely book her again.

Emily did a lovely job watching our kitten Remi for the weekend! She kept him company and we came back to a clean house. We appreciated that she sent some photos/videos!

Emily is thorough, friendly, responsible, and ensured that Leo had everything he needed for the weekend. She took him for walks and reported back with detail as I was away. I appreciated her communication and positive attitude.

Please let me know about any aggressiveness towards new people, children or other animals, how they are on a leash, training level, and any special accommodations such as medication. I am pitbull friendly (love them actually) but I don't have too much experience with them although I'd love to learn.
