Experienced animal lover!
Pet care experience
I grew up on a farm, and have loved and cared for a variety of animals my whole life. I have worked as a manager and animal attendant at several animal shelters, vet clinics and kennels and have extensive experience loving and caring for others furry friends. I have experience administering medications, feeding specific diets (i.e., raw diet, chicken allergies), handling different breeds and energy levels. Currently I have one Australian Shepherd, Odie. Odie loves to play, so daily walks/hikes and play time are a must in our home! And after playtime, cuddles on the couch are our favourite. Your pets will have free-range of the house and is welcome to cuddle and sleep wherever they are used to at home. As well, during their stay I will do my best to ensure any specific requirements for your pooch are met (i.e., exercise, medication, dietary restrictions etc). Picture updates throughout the day, can be made available.
Reviews
Emily looked after Gary for two weeks - during that time, we received numerous pictures and videos of him hiking with Emily and her lovely dog Odie. Emily cared for Gary as if he was a member of her family and the pics of him with a giant grin provided a high degree of comfort while we travelled abroad. If you are looking for a flexible, kind and responsible person to care for your family member (dog lol), then look no further - we will never go back to a kennel and know Gary looks forward to his next visit with Emily and Odie!
I felt really relieved to know my dog was in great hands. Emily is super caring, attentive and love animals. Thank you so much Emily!
Emily was fantastic! Bumper clearly from the pix she sent felt right at home! He appeared to have had a great time, would not hesitate to bring Bumper back, thanks again Emily
