Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog Whisperer of 20 Years
What sets me apart is the variety of animals I have cared for and the level of care I can provide. Here's what I can do for you: Dogs: I have lived with dogs my whole life. I've raised and trained puppies, provided medication and post-surgical care for seniors, worked with hard of hearing/deaf dogs, earned the trust of shy dogs, trained adults, done leash training, trimmed nails, grooming, walking, playing, and have generally been characterized as a dog whisperer. Cats: I can provide care to adult cats as well as kittens. Skills for kittens include: stimulating, syringe feeding, weaning, toilet training, socialization, medication administration, nail trimming. Birds, Fish, Small Mammals, and Reptiles: I also have kept aquariums, birds, and frogs! Pets are family and I know it can be hard worrying about them when out of town. I will relieve those worries!

Ratings and reviews
Emily followed all instructions with our pup to our knowledge and kept our house clean! We do have a pet camera in our home that views the kitchen that we let her know about and let her know she could unplug if she was uncomfortable which she did unplug. Overall everything went fine and she set up 2 meet and greets prior to and communicated with us via a picture a day and some updates through out the stay which we appreciated!
Emily was great! She came and met the kitties before we went on our trip and we were very happy with her visits. Definitely recommend! :)
Emily was very thorough with a meet and greet and asked extensive questions Emily showed up on time per our arrangement and seemed to follow directions from what I could tell However there does seem to be a period where my dog may have been left unattended for overnight and I specifically asked for the dogs to sleep in same room with the gate up as I do not like them wandering at night. She claimed he tried to escape and wanted out so she let him go in another room while she stayed elsewhere My little dog for some reason was not comfortable with her and wouldn’t easily approach her. This was upsetting to hear as I never had any type of report of this ever happening before. I ended up having to schedule alternate care to cover the remainder of my stay. This caused excessive amounts of stress on my end as I was out of the state traveling and had to find other care last minute
Emily was a great communicator through her stay with my dog. She was well prepared for our meet and greet prior, with extensive questions that made me feel at ease leaving my dog in her care. I came home to a happy pup! Would highly recommend Emily for your pet's care
Emily was great to work with! We’re so grateful she could check on our pups for us. She did a meet and greet where we showed her around and then was able to check on our pups when we were away.
Emily did another great job with my fur babies!
