I paws-itively love animals!
Pet care experience
I have always had a love for animals no matter what shape or size. There’s nothing more joyful than getting to interact with them. Whether it’s doing the necessary dirty work, enriching and exercising the animal, or simply playing with them, I am always ready and excited to take charge! I have a lot of experience working with dogs and cats, and have a wide range of skills that help me take care of them. These skills include walking, bathing, nail clipping, giving medications, feeding, and more! I have learned these skill from working as a kennel attendant at a doggy day care, dog sitting and cat sitting, shadowing at a veterinarian office, and having my own pets. I have received my certification I pet first aid and CPR, so you can be assured that under any situation your pet will be in great hands! I have worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and have the necessary patience and knowledge to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy!
Reviews
Emily was great with our 4 cats for over 30 visits during the holidays. Our timid boy came out immediately with her and she was patient with our timid girl who took a few days to get comfortable. Emily handled feeding, water, treats, litter, play, and more excellently and sent us lots of pics of our kitties. The cats will definitely miss her, and we will definitely rebook when a need comes up.
Did amazing, sent pictures and took care of my fur babies
Thanks again Emily
Miss Emily gets a 5 star review with us!! We loved her feedback on Hickory while we were gone, and the fun pictures! We knew he was in good hands. It was very reassuring to hear when he pooped, peed or ate since he stays in the house. She walked him which he loves so much. Emily would definitely be our first choice next trip. ❤️

Safety, trust & environment
I always make sure to put your pet’s health and happiness at the top of my list! They will always be treated as if they were my own, and never ignored. Dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds have been in my care, and I have loved getting the opportunity to meet them all! As a requirement for getting my pet first aid and CPR certification I have been through all the lessons and tests about many possible situations, so while it is never expected, I am always ready to help out your furry friends!
Information Emily K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet requires any medication, special care, or different behaviors such as dog or gate aggression so I can provide those services to the very best of my ability. :)
A typical day
It’s very important to me that your pet gets the most out of my time being there. On walks we’ll stop at any interesting smells, go on runs, play, get all the exercise as well as physical and mental stimulation we can get. If your furry friend has any favorite toys I’ll make sure to use those or use any fun snacks or treats. Please let me know if there are any special places you would like your dog to visit in the neighborhood!
