Dog Lover Looking for Furry Friends
Hi everyone! I’ve been living in the Bay Area for the past four years, with the last two spent in beautiful Tam Valley. I am an avid runner, hiker and yogi! I am currently in graduate school and work from home. While I don’t currently have a pup of my own, I absolutely love spending time with dogs and would be thrilled to help care for yours! I grew up around dogs and have always had a soft spot for them. Whether I’m out walking or running errands, I can’t help but stop to say hi to every pup I pass. I’m all about giving dogs the love, attention, and activity they need, whether that means long walks, hikes, park playtime, or just some quality companionship. I have my own car, so transportation is easy, and I’m very familiar with dog-friendly spots around Marin and San Francisco. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and treat your dog like one of my own. If you're looking for a caring, responsible sitter or walker, I’d love to connect! Feel free to message me with any questions, I’m happy to chat or provide references. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend!
Qualifications

I care for pets first and foremost as the pet owner would prefer I do. In my space Im happy to cuddle on couches and in bed with dogs, but will follow whatever structure the owner has. I have dog bowls for food and water.
Ratings and reviews
Emily was wonderful with our Berner. She was reliable, punctual, and communicative throughout our whole trip away. Would definitely book again!

Emily was wonderful with our dog! She watched him for 4 nights and sent daily photos and updates while we were out of town. She was also excellent with communication when scheduling and was extremely flexible with a last minute change to the schedule.

Emily did a wonderful job walking our dog Indie. She took the time get to know our dog in advance and was very punctual and playful with our dog. Recommended

Emily took amazing care of our dog — totally spoiled her and she looked so happy in all the photo updates we got. On top of that Emily is super friendly, a good communicator, prompt, and punctual.

Emily took great care of our pup, Atom, at our home. She took him for long walks at different locations each day, including a beach outing (with advance permission) and shared photos throughout our trip. She followed the instructions that we provided for dog and home care, and asked questions as needed. I felt comfortable that Atom was well cared for and highly recommend Emily. Admittedly, we were cautious to leave Atom with a pet sitter for the first time and had a great first experience with Rover, thanks Emily!

Emily was awesome with my big guy! They went on a ton of walks / runs. He came back happy and tired! Emily was very easy to communicate with and I would not hesitate to book with her again.
