Pet care experience
There's nothing I'm more passionate about than animals. I've been around dogs and cats all my life, and fall in love with every pup and kitty I meet. I have been lucky to enough to have always grown up with dogs and cats- my family, and myself, have fostered a few animals as well. I volunteered at a feed store/animal rescue in middle and into high school. During college, I volunteered with Pets Forever, a nonprofit organization, where I would visit pet owners who were unable to provide exercise for their dogs themselves and take them for walks. I also fostered 11 cats over the course of about 8 months for our local cat rescue. During college I also worked at an animal veterinary clinic for nearly a year. After moving back home, I worked as a dog handler and manager at a boarding facility. I then began work at an emergency and specialty animal hospital where over the course of nearly 4 years, I gained a host of new knowledge and experience in animal health and veterinary care. I now currently work at an urgent care for pets. I am punctual, reliable, friendly, and look forward to meeting you and your best friend(s)! Note: I would love to start booking with more repeat clients- ie regular/weekly walks or dropins. So let me know if you’d like help on a more regular basis!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Whether your animal needs drop in visits to potty, walks, feedings, litter box changes, medication administration, or just some love and attention while you’re gone, I’ll be happy to work with you on your pet’s specific needs.
Information Emily H. would like to know about your pet
I have plenty of experience dealing with timid or fear-aggressive dogs. I am comfortable reading body language and physical cues. I love all dogs (and cats), even the ones that require patience, and am more than happy to move slow and work with them and you until they're accustomed to me.
A typical day
I am happy to walk, play fetch with, or hike with your dog. I can either walk around your neighborhood or drive your pup some other place you think they'd like to visit. (Local parks, trails, just a different scene, anywhere!) What we do is up to you!
