Pet care experience
Hi there, my name is Emily! Currently I am in the animal therapy field using energy healing and currently going to school to become a certified canine massage therapist! Being in the animal industry as an Animal Healing Practitioner has been the best thing to ever happen to me, I have worked with almost every animal you can think of, as well as all life stages in dogs and cats! I have lots of pet experience ranging from taking care of my own pets for as long as I can remember, to helping with family pets. I have previously worked in a pet store for 3 years gaining so much knowledge, advice, and being dedicated to always doing extra research in current pet issues. My goal is to focus on your little ones needs, and to make sure my time with them is one on one and letting them enjoy our walks and time together! I believe we can learn so much from spending time with animals and I love to expand my horizons and see what the next little one can teach me. I am reliable and have a gentle spirit and understanding of animals. I am excited to be able to help out where I can in my free time and meet some new furry friends!🐾
Reviews
Emily and Lucy were fast friends. They got along great. Emily's nice and personable.
Emily has been walking my dog during our long work hours when we need her. She always sends updates afterwards with a couple photos. She’s always available and my pup seems to adore her! Highly recommend :)
I have booked Emily several times and each time has been great, I get wonderful updates and I can tell how happy my dogs are in the pictures I get from her.
Emily was very caring and gave great updates and photos of my dogs. From the photos I received I can tell they were very happy to be in her care!
About Emily K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Currently I have 1 dog, a couple hamsters and some fish! I believe in positive reinforcement. I also believe that there is always a reason for a behaviour and our pets only have certain ways to communicate their feelings to us, so we just have to be observant, patient and understanding and we can live happier healthier and more in unison! Trust is a huge thing in the animal world and this can take time, I have experience with extra anxious pets as well as super hyper, and I am able to adapt and be extra calm and supportive for whatever your loved ones needs are. Please be open and honest with any issues, I will not turn you away it just helps to know how to approach your pup! If you are nervous for your little one to meet someone new I am very open to meeting them and even going on a walk together with you so you can feel confident and safe leaving your loved one in my care!
Information Emily K. would like to know about your pet
Let me know anything special about your little one, do they hate getting pet on the head? Do they love a specific routine for going out on a walk? No information is too much!
A typical day
I will take any advice and most special requests from pet parents! Whether that’s playing with a favourite toy in the yard, learning or repeating old tricks in the living room, or visiting a nearby park to get some good nature sniffs in!

Availability
Currently I am able to make my own schedule, I am part time working and part time in school (most of it online). I will be able to take your pup on a walk during the days of the week mostly, and if you need a more frequent consistent person we can work it out! Always feel free to tell me your schedule goals and I may be able to fit you in. It never hurts to check!😊
