Pet care experience

I live for puppy lovins

I’ve cared for dogs and other animals for as long as I can remember. It started with our own family dog and pet-sitting for neighbors while they were away. Now I have my own handsome pitty/German Shepherd mutt and am the go-to dog-sitter for family and friends. I accidentally became a dog walker when I volunteered to walk an elderly neighbor’s pittie when he wasn’t healthy enough to do so. I loved it so much, I wanted to expand to walk other people’s pups as well. I love all dogs, no matter the size, breed, or temperament. I have experience giving medications including insulin shots and have owned everything from an 8 pound Pom to a 100 pound Boxer-Lab. My current baby is a German Shepherd mix so I know high-energy ;) I’ll walk no matter the weather, as long as your dog is comfortable! I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion!

Safety, trust & environment

Before my first walk or check-in, I'd like to schedule a meet and greet so that all parties (me, you, and your dog) are comfortable and on the same page. I'll follow all routines and expectations to a T. Your dog can expect lots of belly rubs and ear scratches, and you can expect lots of pictures and updates on your pup!

Emily has been caring for my cats the last few years and I have been very happy having her as a my cat sitter. She takes amazing care of my cats and sends me several of pictures of her visits with them. She is one of the best animal care takers around and I highly recommend her!

Emily is an experienced and reliable dog sitter who gives excellent care of our dogs whether she drops in for a visit or spends the night. I always have peace of mind when she is with them.

I’d like to know about the general temperament of your dog. How are they with other dogs and people? How do they respond to stimuli on their walks? Any reactivity? And quirks I should know? Any health concerns? I want to know as much about your pup as possible to keep them safe, comfortable and happy!
