Safety, trust & environment

I rescued my dog Sadie 9 years ago after finding her on the highway, where she had clearly been living on the streets for some time. Sadie is sweet, but she struggles with anxiety related behavioral issues, which means she requires some medication, special care, and a lot of patience. I love my dog very much, and I promise to provide that same great care for your pet.

Information Emily H. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know important notes about your dog's temperament. Any behavioral issues? Will they require some extra warming up to a new face, or are they ready to rock and roll with new friends?

A typical day

We will go on fun walks with lots of neat things to see and smell. I'll bring an extra water bowl and make sure no mysterious objects are eaten. Belly rubs are a must!

Your dog's cool aunt

Pet care experience

Hi there! I can't wait to be your dog's cool aunt who stops by occasionally for fun adventures and then disappears until next time. Thanks for considering me to help care for your fluffiest family members! I know inviting someone into your home and entrusting them to care for your pet is a really big deal. I hope to help put your mind at ease by telling you a bit more about my character. I am trustworthy, considerate, and communicative. I will take good care of your pet, respecting any and all of your specific wishes established ahead of time. I will be courteous of your home and safety, confirming lock ups and other important details. If I have any questions I will certainly ask you!

Emily has helped us with potty breaks for years now and we are so grateful for her. The dogs are always calm and happy when she has cared for them.
