Dedicated Dog Lover and Caretaker
Pet care experience
I'm a dedicated animal lover and have had dogs since I was born. I started dog and house sitting eight years ago. My specialty is in large breed dogs, but I love them all. I have volunteer experience at Circle Tail, Hand Me Down Dobes, and the ASPCA. Prior to having to leave school due to my disabilities, I was pursuing a degree in Animal Science and Meat Science with a specialization in animal industries and equine science at Ohio State University. I plan on returning and finishing my degrees when my disabilities allow it.
Reviews
Emily did a great job with our two little guys.
Emily was amazing watching our crew. Gracie LOVED playing with her dog Xander and we were so happy everyone was well cared for. Communication was always friendly and prompt and included pictures for us to enjoy.
This was our first time using Rover after having a poor local boarding experience. We chose Emily as she had a lot of return customers on her profile. We will DEFINITELY use Rover again, specifically to use Emily if possible. She was wonderful, took great care of Allie and we returned home to a happy and healthy dog. Her dog Xander, was a delight with Allie as well. Emily shared photos throughout the week and we were able to enjoy ourselves knowing Allie was in great hands. Emily - thanks for all you did while we were gone!
Emily is an awesome pet sitter! We always take our dogs with us on vacations, so leaving them at home for the first time was especially stressful. Emily took great care of our babies and our home. One of our dogs is fearful of strangers, so having Xander here was an extra bonus. He helped relieve her anxiety with their daily ball and squirrel chases. I appreciate you so much, Emily! Thank you!
About Emily O.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I also have amateur training experience with service dogs and horses of all kinds. As my training with horses can attest to especially, I am good at reading animals and giving them what they need to thrive in the environment they are in. I'm willing to go above and beyond for your pooch! Just ask, and I will be happy to oblige.
Information Emily O. would like to know about your pet
Before I dog sit, I'd like to know if your dog has any special needs (medication, etc.), allergies/sensitivities, their temperament with other animals, any fears or anxieties, any destructive behaviors, and their opinions about water/swimming. I also of course would love to know your dog's favorite toys, treats, and activities! I do not have any breed preferences.
A typical day
I bring my dog, Xander, with me on all stays and your pooch can expect lots of (supervised) fun with him! When your dog stays with me, they will also enjoy access to the outdoors, plenty of playtime, and a buddy if they need or want one. I frequent Columbus's parks with my own dog, Xander. We go swimming at Antrim Park, play at Godown Dog Park, and zoom around the obstacle course at the Scioto-Audubon Metro Dog Park. If your dog has a favorite place, park, or walking trail, I'd be more than happy to take them there.
