Safety, trust & environment

I’m a bit of a hover mom when it comes to pets. Haha I always like to know where they are and what they’re doing to be sure they’re not getting into anything that could be harmful.

Information Emily H. would like to know about your pet

Any information you have to share about your dog beforehand is always helpful. Even if you feel like it's too much, it never hurts. Any quirks or special needs that will help me get to know your loved one quicker so that I can be more attentive to their needs. I also require a meet & greet prior to watching a dog in our home. I want to be sure your fur baby will be comfortable.

A typical day

I like to take dogs on long walks and let them sniff their hearts out. If you have any games your dog enjoys, let me know and I can play with them!

Pet care experience

I had a dog for nearly 14 years (RIP little Jockamo) and grew up with several dogs around the house. I pay attention to behaviors and how dogs try to communicate with us. I’m very patient and if you need some assistance with training, I’m willing to help out! Or if you just want someone to keep your dog company, play a bit, and go for a walk, I can do that too. If your dog will be hanging out at my home, we have a small fenced yard, so they can have some off-leash outdoor time! I do require a meet & greet prior. No last min requests please, unless I’ve previously watched your pup. I also have experience with cats and can help out with pop-in visits, but unfortunately I am not able to host cats in our home.

She is very good with Bella. It seems like Bella really enjoys herself

This is one of our "favorite" dog sitters/walker and I highly recommend Emily for her reliability, honesty, trustworthiness, and how she relates to animals with lots of love and care. She also loves taking lots of pics of her own "fur baby", Jockamo, and loves to share him on social media as well.
