Pet care experience

Pet Lover w/ Flexible Availability!

Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover based near Cedar Rapids/Iowa City with a flexible schedule and have always had a genuine love for pets of all sizes and personalities. Over the years, I’ve had the chance to be trusted to love and care for many other pets! Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, drop-in care, or overnight company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m active, patient, and detail-oriented, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m happy to follow specific routines, medication instructions, feeding schedules, and anything else that helps your pet feel at home. I also have experience with dog training that increased my love and passion for handling all kinds of different dogs and pets. While caring for your pets I will always be sure to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I hope to work with you and care for your lovely pets!

Emily has been so great with Indy! He gets very excited to see her. She is great about keeping him entertained and getting out much needed energy. She has even worked on training skills. When Emily has Indy we are extremely confident that he is in good hands.
