Pet care experience
Thank you for considering me to love on your fur babies! I have over 15 years of experience working with dogs and cats. Primarily, my experience is with dog sitting and cat sitting in the owner's home. I have worked with dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes as well as cats. I have also taken care of small animals like fish and birds. Nearly all of my previous customers have been repeat customers! I grew up in a home that always had two or more dogs. Due to my love for dogs (some have called me obsessed with dogs), I was always heavily involved in their care and training. I currently have two boxers who are brother and sister. I also have two young children. Generally, I stay home with my sons and dogs everyday. Currently, I am unable to provide boarding. However, I am able and willing to provide care for your fur babies in your own home while you are away. I can also do drop in visits and provide walks for your puppies. I always have my phone on me, and can provide as many updates/pictures as requested. Since I cannot provide care in my own home, it is likely that my puppies will have no contact with your fur babies.
Reviews
Emily was great with my pup and was super communicative the whole time! Would definitely recommend her!
Thank you so much Emily for caring for our home and pets. You went above and beyond and we will definitely recommend you to friends and family. Thanks again and we look forward to working with you again in the future.

I provide care according to each pet’s needs and the owner’s expectations. My most common service is drop in visits. For these, I spend anywhere from 30mins to an hour in your home with your pet. I first take the dog outside for a good run and potty break; or I check the cat’s litter box. After that, I ensure that they are hydrated. I feed them if requested at the times indicated. For the rest of the visit, I spend quality time with the dog or pet. Some pets prefer to play while others just want to sit next to me on the couch. Lastly, I say goodbye and ensure the house is back in the state that I arrived.
Information Emily M. would like to know about your pet
Before accepting a job, I would like to know if they get along with children. Depending on the visit time and length, I may bring my children with me during house visits or walks. My boys are very good around animals, and I can bring my pack n play, stroller, and their tablet to keep them content. For overnights, my boys will be at home with my husband.
A typical day
For a typical visit with a dog - run in the backyard or walk up and down the street if no yard, play in the yard with balls or frisbees, pets and cuddles, photoshoot for the owners, and tricks with treats. For a typical visit with a cat - most cats I have acted for preferred to be alone. However, some like pets and cuddles and sometimes they’ll sit near me or in my lap. Some cats have toys they enjoy, so I will make sure to get those out for them and try to engage them. Photoshoot for owners if the cats are out in the open.

Availability
Generally, I am able to leave the home multiple times a day with my boys in tow. For longer drop in visits, I will have childcare in place. I am at home nearly all day with my children and dogs - only leaving for average errands, shopping, and appointments.
