Life-long animal enthusiast
Pet care experience
EXPERIENCE I've lived with and cared for pets for as long as I can remember, particularly cats, dogs, fish, and rodents. Throughout my childhood, I often made drop-in visits to care for my neighbors' dogs and cats while they were away, and would walk a trio of beagles on a regular basis. Additionally, my professional background in animal husbandry (3 years) has given me experience caring for reptiles, amphibians, birds, ferrets, and exotic rodents.
Reviews
This is my firsts time using the app and a service like this. I was worried and hesitant. But I’m really glad I did. They are really friendly and prompt, and reachable for any questions. My cat loved them so much and am glad I chose Emily. I definitely would use them again and definitely am recommending Emily for all of my friends. Thanks so much for a great and worry free experience!
Emily is a very reliable and kind individual. She loves animals and is a very sweet person with my own. I would let her pet sit my cats any day!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
SAFETY & TRUST As somebody who grew up around animals, I am good at responding appropriately to their body language in a way that minimizes distress. I also have experience with aggressive cats and energetic dogs, so rest assured that your fur baby won't be mistreated just because they have a strong personality 🙂
Information Emily L. would like to know about your pet
Because I work in an urban area, I would like to know how your dog behaves when they encounter another dog or person on walks so I can prepare accordingly.
A typical day
I always make an effort to play with pets during drop-in visits if they seem interested in doing so. There are also several parks in my area that are perfect for an afternoon stroll with your pup.
