A built-in playmate & lots of love!

Pet care experience

For day care / boarding: I have a 6 year old black lab, Harper, who loves other dogs. She can show your dog the inside scoop, like the most comfortable spots on the couch and the best spot in the yard to post up and stare at squirrels (no? Just her?) We have a large fenced in yard, but typically still go on a nice long morning walk to start the day! On weekends, we like to get out to some of the local trails. If your dog has any special needs or limitations, please just let me know — I want his/her stay with me to be as stress-free and fun for them (and for you) as possible. For drop ins: I’m happy to check in on your home/pet! Until I take the leap to adopt a cat of my own, I’m thankful for the chance to play with your cats via drop in visits. This can include food, water, play time, litter box cleaning, or anything else your cat needs while you’re away. (I’m also happy to water plants or grab mail for you!)

Our dog loved staying with Emily and Harper! Nice big yard for him to run around in and came home happy and tired.

I am so happy we found Emily to watch our dog for the weekend. Her communication was great and he came home tired, happy, and healthy. I would happily use her to watch our dog again!

Luna had a great time with Harper and Emily! Emily sent us lots of photos of a smiling Luna while we were away. We'll definitely rebook with Emily again and highly recommend her to watch your pup.

Information Emily H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any allergies, specific leash triggers, a sensitive stomach, or anything else you think I should know! I want to make sure their stay is as stress-free for them, and you, as possible.

A typical day

We’re early risers, and Harper loves hikes/nature walks. She would love to have a friend along for the adventure! I’ll always ask before driving your dog anywhere, but if they’re up for it, we’d love to include them in weekend activities (hiking, Ruff Canine Club ((+$10 for the fee), etc.)
