I set my own schedule, which means I understand how crucial it is to maintain a predictable routine for our furry friends. I'd love to hear all about your pup's typical day so we can work together to create a plan that keeps things consistent for them. Overnight Stays: I offer a 12 hour period in-home care. The start and end times may vary per day. An example of a 12 hour period is as follows: arrive at 7pm and depart at 7am. I will also provide up to 2 drop-in visits of a minimum of 30 minutes during the day to ensure quality time for play, walks, and love. Overnight stays include meal feedings morning & evening, medications if applicable, and general cleaning. I can also help with bringing in mail, trash day, and watering plants. Please reach out for more information.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm well-versed in handling reactivity and reading dog body language. It's important to me to never push a dog into a situation where they feel uncomfortable. I'll ask you questions to fully understand your dog's temperament, needs, and preferences. Plus, I'm more than happy to provide notes and pictures of my visits. If your pup tends to be wary of new people, I suggest booking a few visits to help them feel more comfortable and minimize any stress. When it comes to building a bond with your furry friend, I always opt for force-free approaches

Information Emily J. would like to know about your pet

Scheduling a Meet and Greet prior to the booking will be required to ensure it's a good fit. Your dog's mental and emotional health are important to me. Please share any relevant details, such as fear-based aggression, touch preferences, separation anxiety, allergies, or special needs. The more information you provide, the better equipped I'll be to care for your pup.

A typical day

Dogs navigate the world primarily through their amazing sense of smell, so I'm a huge supporter of sniffari walks, allowing plenty of time for them to indulge their noses. It's one of the most enriching activities for them. Does your dog get anxious during walks? No problem! We can switch gears and organize playtime at home, catering activities to your dog's preferences.

Sniffari Adventures with Emily

Pet care experience

**Licensed, Insured & Bonded** Hey there! I'm passionate about making sure dogs have the best time in safe and stimulating environments. Whether your furry friend is a high-energy pup or more of a chill companion, I've got the skills to keep them happy. As the guardian of a dog who copes with reactivity, I totally get the importance of creating comfortable spaces. I'm all about personalizing my care to fit each dog's unique needs, and while I'm happy to accommodate your preferences, I'll always stick to methods that feel right to me, like positive reinforcement and lots of love and patience. Oh, and let's not forget about Sniffari walks—they're my absolute favorite! So if your pup is craving some adventure, shoot me a message!

Emily is amazing. I have a fearful reactive pup who is picky with people he meets. Emily and I have been working together the past couple weeks on building the relationship and I’m so proud of the progress of my dog. It’s hard to meet people who understand dog behavior and energy, and I’m so happy we found Emily.

We can’t wait to use Emily again! She is extremely responsible and communicative. We had her walk our dogs several days in a row. She was right on time and followed all of our instructions. Thanks for taking care of our pups and sending updates!
