I felt very good about leaving my dog with Emily. I was gone almost a whole week but because of all the pictures and texts it didn’t seem that long. Emily will definitely be my go to sitter the next time I need one.

Emily was scheduled at our home from Saturday to the following Sunday. I rated Emily as a two for the following reasons. She advertises that she will stay overnight, but she later told us after we were booked that she is afraid to stay overnight by herself so her boyfriend stays with her. I told her that our dogs didn't eat dinner at a specific time, just when we got home from work, like between 430 and 630 pm. The first two nights she didn't feed them until after 9:00 pm. I found that out the second night when I texted about the dogs eating and she said she was at the college and would feed them when she returned. At 9:00 pm I texted and asked if our one dog ate because he hadn't eaten breakfast and she texted back at 9:07 pm saying she was on her way to feed them. Later that night she texted and told me that she wasn't home during the dinner hours through the week so her boyfriend would have to do the dinner time feeding. That same night we found out she had several people in the house and several had stayed the night before. We told her the people needed to leave and the neighbors watched as several friends left the house and the cars pulled away. This is when we realized the reason our dog hadn't eaten breakfast ...because there were extra people in the house. BTW, we have a one bedroom home. A few other tidbits to consider: The bed mattress was shifted off of the frame and the entire bed was a foot from the wall. The vodka bottle was almost empty. I would not recommend Emily to watch my animals or anyone else's animals. She has a kind heart, but it appears she has too many commitments and watching the animals is a greater responsibility than she demonstrated that she was able to handle.
