I prefer fur babies to human babies

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Emily! I am an absolute animal fanatic with extra time on my hands and couldn’t think of a better way to spend it than with your pets!! I played collegiate tennis at WVU and got a psychology degree. I worked for corporate America for 6 years and now have been working at a fitness program in Richmond for 1 year! I took care of dogs and cats in downtown Chicago after college which takes a higher level of attention due to busy streets and traffic and now in Richmond for a year! I have also cared for dogs with anxiety so I understand animals have individual needs and shouldn’t be treated like they are all the same. I grew up owning dogs, cats, fish, and even took my psychology research rat home bc I couldn’t let them get rid of him!! I love ALLL things paws ! Currently, I have experience watching dogs, cats, bunnies, and chickens from rover. I’m open to anything as long as you show me the ropes!

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks and runs! I love to play fetch with dogs. I love to throw toys with dogs. I also love to snug and pet all animals if they like that as well! As for cats, I like to feel them out and see what kind of loving they need! Some are very affectionate and some are not! I let them lead :) I love to play with cats because they are so funny! Both dogs and cats give me such joy :)

Due to gas prices, I have to be economical.
