Pet care experience

Will love your pet like my own

I have grown up with pets all my life and currently have an 8 year old dog named Rocky. I have had him since he was 6 weeks old, so I am used to caring for dogs of different ages. I am excited to provide a loving home for your pets while you are away. I live in a great neighborhood that is perfect for walking your pets and keeping them entertained. I love all types of dogs and my dog will love having more dogs to play with! I am willing to accommodate any special requirements for your pet and am looking forward to meeting them!

Emily was an amazing dog sitter! She took such great care of our dog, Kiva, and it was clear Kiva had an absolute blast during her stay. Emily sent us daily updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and made us smile every day. We could tell Kiva was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. We would absolutely trust Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.

We were grateful that Emily was willing to watch our dog for us from Friday to Sunday evening. She sent pictures and updates. However, on Sunday she informed us that our dog chewed up her travel carrier when they put her in it while away at church. And a puppy they were watching chewed up her dog bowl. She did replace the bowls and bought a new carrier (we didn’t end up taking because we felt bad) which was considerate. I just wish she had communicated with us that we should bring her kennel so they could put her in it while they were away. I also reached out the next day because I didn’t see our dogs bag of extra food with measuring cup. I packed enough food for the 3 days and extra just in case. She responded that she did not have anymore food for her and that they had to feed her their dogs food for dinner. In the feeding notes I specified our dog was to have 1/2 a cup in morning and 1/2 at dinner time (per our vets instructions). I don’t think she read these notes even though Rover asked for any feeding specifications. I don’t know how much food she was given for all that food to be gone or if other dogs were eating it too. When I mentioned this and not getting the measuring cup back, she never responded.

Emily and family were great! Our puppy was a happy camper when we picked him up.

Emily was such a pleasure to work with and our pup had the best time. She gave regular updates and her family loved our dog, just as their own. I highly recommend Emily!

My dog stayed with Emily for 3 days, we did a meet and greet the week before. Emily and her family are very kind and are obviously dog lovers. I received plenty of photos and updates while gone. I am very happy with the care our dog received from their family. I wholeheartedly recommend Emily as a sitter, and we will be using her services again in the future I'm sure.
