I am an animal lover of all species
Pet care experience
I have had over 10 years of experience working as a dog sitter, animal shelter manager, wildlife rehabilitator, livestock caregiver, and loving dog owner. I have owned and cared for various breeds (large and small) from puppies to seniors. I have experience working with behaviorally challenging dogs and cats as well as medical care experience ranging from daily medications to injections and subcutaneous fluids. Training is one of my favorite types of enrichment for animals and I look forward to implementing my training in day to day work. I currently work full time as the operations manager of a local animal rescue in Winston-Salem. If you have any questions feel free to contact me by email or phone at any time. Hope to hear from you soon!
Reviews
Emily was amazing and took care of our dogs as if they were her own!
Emily is a great choice !!! We will ask for her whenever we need pet care. This is the second time we have asked for Emily and the quality of care has been great, again!!
Emily took good care of our dog, turtle and goldfish. We’d be happy to have her back another time. Thank you!
Emily is awesome, dependable and responsible!! Our senior cat needed medicine twice a day and Emily made sure he got it!! She took the time to help him deal with a new routine and won him over with her patient and kind demeanor. She notified me when there was something out of the ordinary. She is a real animal lover!! Emily is the first person I will call when we need to be gone in the future!!

I have a beautiful hiking trail behind my house to take your pup on a walk on as well as a large dog crate if you would like to crate train overnight. I also have an adorable and friendly dog named Blue who is great with both cats and dogs to keep your pet company!
Information Emily L. would like to know about your pet
I have absolutely no breed preferences, although a brief description of the dog's personality would be fantastic! Specific personalities will in no way determine whether or not I will care for a dog, I only ask to get an idea of what kind of dog I will be working with. If you are a new client with me, I schedule meet and greets prior to our dog sitting/walking/drop in appointment just to get to know you and your pet a little better as well.
A typical day
Dogs in my care will enjoy long walks and training sessions using positive enforcement methods. I also have plenty of toys and treats per pet parents approval that I'd be happy to use as enrichment during your pets stay with me!
