Pet care experience

I'll make your dog smile!

I've owned dogs my whole life. I've worked with them for over a decade at pet stores, shelters, and boarding facilities. When I was 10, we adopted a Labrador who sparked my need to love every dog on the face of the Earth, so I've been dog sitting and loving on them ever since. We lost her a while ago, so working with dogs is my little dose of therapy. I work near my house, so I always have the ability to go check on the babies. When I'm not working, I'm outside. I've had experience with medication, every kind of anxiety you can imagine, and special needs dogs. Your bundle of fur would be treated like my own with plenty of much deserved attention! I do work as a store manager at Starbucks, but I work shorter days when I have babies to watch! I would love to make sure we are on the same page as to how long, if at all, they can be left alone. I will be able to adjust my schedule accordingly! The babies are my #1 concern. I love to take the pups to parks during the day if you’re okay with that, as well as hiking and being outside! I am constantly outside on patios or walking, especially when it’s nice out. I would love to make sure your babies have the best time ❤️

Emily is the best yet again. My dog hurt his Rt knee two days before my trip and I had no worries about leaving him with Emily as our sitter. She knows exactly what to do with a very nervous dog. I would recommend her to everyone.

Emily was great! She was very good at making sure our dog was comfortable and happy. She played with her and loved on her. I love the photos that she sends for when I miss my dog!

Emily is the best. Friendly, responsible, dependable and has a great sense of humor. She arrived on early to meet up and ran back to my house when I saw my dog escaping on the ring camera, only to find Bear sitting inside the house. She is awesome with my dog who isn’t the best around other dogs, he also gets Daily medicine and that was no big deal to Emily! I will definitely be using Emily again. I’m so happy to have found a wonderful new sitter

Emily did a great job taking care of my high maintenance 15 year old Weimaraner. We will enjoy having her care for our dog again.

I'd like to be aware of an anxieties or fears regarding other animals or being left alone while at work for short periods. I'd also like to know of any special circumstances. All breeds are fine by me!
