Dog trainer who loves long walks!
Pet care experience
I’m Emily- I train my two dogs for obedience and dock diving competitions. I have eight years of experience working in kennels and walking and training clients' dogs. I am familiar with caring for reactive and fearful dogs and read dog body language to ensure your dog's comfort and safety. I’m an avid trail runner, so I mesh well with high-energy dogs- they’ll sleep well after a walk with me! I'm happy to take your dog out for walks (or runs!), play in the backyard, or just hang around the house with them. I have human and canine first aid training and carry a robust first aid kit whenever I'm out with pups. Looking forward to meeting you and your dog!
Reviews
Emily is great! My boy loves her and really looks forward to her visits. She is reliable and sends me pictures every time she takes my dog out, and he always looks so happy.
Emily was awesome! She was so friendly and my boys loved her! She was very communicative and took great care of my boys, I would definitely book her again!
Emily is perhaps the most competent, caring, alert, and fun dog caregiver I've met. I'm continually impressed by how much care and compassion she puts into training her own dog (who is, unsurprisingly, a very well behaved dog), and would absolutely recommend her as a dog caregiver for anyone.
Emily is one of the most attentive and animal loving dog walker I’ve had. Clearly understands the intricacies of dog training and is passionate about learning the personalities and habits of new dogs. I will for sure be using her again.
About Emily M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I take safety seriously, as I've worked with reactive dogs in the past. Your dog's boundaries and likes/dislikes will be respected and I'll work hard to earn their trust! I do not allow greetings with other strange dogs while on walks, and can secure your dog in a kennel or a designated part of the house when dropping them back home if you'd like.
Information Emily M. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know what commands they know, any reactivity issues, their likes/dislikes, fitness levels, and how they do in the heat and/or cold. Please let me know if they have any health conditions or allergies.
A typical day
I can walk your dog around your neighborhood or to a park of your choice. I’d also love to play fetch or frisbee with your pup in your yard. I can handle long lines or keep your dog on a shorter leash, whichever you prefer.
