reliable, friendly, attentive

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!

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!
