Safety, trust & environment

I treat every home with respect and always communicate clearly with updates and photos. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities.
Information Emily H. would like to know about your pet
Please share your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medical needs, and personality traits. I also like to know who their vet is and if you have a preferred emergency vet in case of an unexpected event. Let me know how they handle new people, any behavioral quirks, favorite toys, or specific concerns so I can provide personalized, attentive care.
A typical day
A typical visit includes feeding, fresh water, cleaning the litter box, a quick yard check, and spending quality time with your pet. This might mean playtime, walks, brushing, enrichment activities, or simply sitting with them to help them feel secure and cared for while you’re away, depending on their personality and needs.

Reliable & Attentive
Pet care experience
I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, and small animals. I’ve had pets my entire life and currently have two cats of my own. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including puppies and kittens, senior pets, and animals with medical needs. I have experience administering oral medications and monitoring chronic conditions. As an incoming medical student, I’m highly detail-oriented, responsible, and attentive to changes in behavior or health. I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter working with feral cats to help socialize them for adoption. This experience strengthened my patience, confidence, and ability to read animal body language — especially with shy, anxious, or high-energy pets. In addition to cats and dogs, I’m comfortable caring for bunnies, turtles, and other small animals. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. You can expect consistent communication, photo updates, and dependable care every time.

Reviews
Emily did such a great job with our pup! Communication and pictures were great. Will book again!
Emily was absolutely wonderful watching our dog bean for a week while we were on vacation! Bean is a super shy dog with some arthritis and weird quirks so it was so great that she was able to make bean feel comfortable and secure! She did a great job handling her meds and routine. We came back to a spotless house and a happy dog!
Emily H. is an exceptional choice for pet care. She consistently provides safe, loving care because of her deep understanding of animal behavior and her unwavering patience. Her commitment to following specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise ensures that every pet receives personalized attention and maintains their routine, reducing stress while I was away on vacation. She truly connects with animals, making them feel comfortable and cherished under her supervision. When it comes to great customer service, Emily is highly communicative and reliable. She often sends updates and photos, providing peace of mind and showing her dedication to keeping owners informed. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care for both pets and their owners make her an absolute standout. I have used her several times to care for my cats. She makes it easy to not worry about your furry family members. I highly recommend Emily H. Recently, when she took care of my cats, they were very relaxed and happy upon my return, a clear testament to the positive environment she creates. What makes Emily an awesome human being is her incredible empathy, not just for animals but for people too. She's remarkably trustworthy, kind, and always goes the extra mile, making her an invaluable resource for anyone seeking top-notch pet care.
