Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety and comfort are of utmost priority. I always follow the care instructions you leave for your pets so they can stick to the routine they're used to. Because I care for my own animals at home, I understand how important it is to be attentive and responsible when someone else is caring for your pets. I keep a close eye on behavior, surroundings, and anything that might affect their well-being. If I ever notice something unusual or have a question, I won't hesitate to reach out. I believe good communication is part of good pet care, and I'd rather check in than make assumptions. I like to balance fun and affection with attentiveness. Pets should feel relaxed and loved, but also safe and supervised!

Information Emily M. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me of any special needs, training cues, or behavioral patterns I should account for. I have no preference for breed, but I am not currently equipped to accommodate very large dogs.

A typical day

I love to meet new pet friends, so during our visits we'll do any combination of the following: potty breaks, indoor/outdoor playtime, food and water refresh, cuddle/companionship time, and tricks with plenty of treats!

Rural Pet Sitter & Animal Lover

Pet care experience

Howdy! I'm Emily, an experienced animal caregiver living in a rural Texas community. At home, I currently care for two dogs, a cat, and a flock of chickens, so looking after animals is already part of my everyday routine. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to trust the person you leave your pets with. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away - basically stepping in as the "mom while mom is away." Animals have their own personalities and routines, and I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free for them. Whether that means playtime, a walk, sticking to feeding schedules, or just keeping them company, I'm happy to meet them where they're at. I'm calm, dependable, and not easily rattled. I take animal care seriously, and I understand that pets are family. You can expect clear communication, regular updates, and plenty of photos so you know your pets are doing well while you're gone. Since I already care for multiple animals at home, I'm comfortable with a variety of temperaments and needs. From energetic dogs and independent cats: If they need patience, routine, or just a little extra lovin', I'm happy to provide it!

Emily is a loving pet mom. She has always been great with animals. She understands the needs of pets and what it takes to take care of them. She has a very caring, gentle nature and animals are attracted to her. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs
