Pet care experience
I am an experienced dog mom of a 3.5 year old Australian Shepherd named Ellie and moved here from Long Island a year and a half ago. I’ve lived with dogs my entire life (total of 5 rescues) that I’ve loved and cared for. I have a 9 year old cat as well so I am very comfortable around both! I have dog walked for Wag! and Rover for 3.5 years now so you can be sure your pet is in good hands! I work from home during the day and have plenty of time to take your pet out as needed! I like long walks or playtime in the house! I have toys as well as grooming tools. My boyfriend is also a night time graduate student so he is always around to help as well. For sitting, I have a dog park on my roof as well as a community dog park right outside my apartment! I offer baths and brushing for longer stays. I know all types of harnesses and collars and have been trained to put each of them on. If you have any preferences please don’t hesitate to ask me about them! Can’t wait to meet your pup/kitty!
Reviews
Very sweet and attentive
Emily was great with Sasha, attentive to his needs and checked in. Would definitely book her again!
Emily was professional and punctual, followed instructions perfectly, and sent some great pics of our cat. Thank you Emily!
We had last minute travel issues getting home, and Emily saved the day! At the last minute she was able to drop in on our kitties and get them taken care of for the morning. Very professional and helpful, highly recommend.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am very careful when entering your home as my dog is quite the escape artist herself. If you crate your dog, I am great at motivating them out and to get back in when time is up! I make sure nothing is left out for those counter surfers!
Information Emily H. would like to know about your pet
Open to all breeds of all sizes! I love all social and shy cats as well! I always try to get the shy ones to warm up to me after some time. I would just like to know if there is any issues/special needs your pup has beforehand!
A typical day
I typically take my pup on walks to the water! I am open to suggested routes and times as well! We have room to play fetch and I really enjoy teaching new tricks!
Services

Availability
I currently work full time, but work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. I love to take breaks to go on walks and I figured it would be great to include your furry friend!
