Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard with 3 dogs living here full time. if you want to board your dog with me or do doggy day camp at my house, they will need to either be a good with with my dogs OR stay with me in my office during the day and be let out individually.

Information Emily O. would like to know about your pet

If they are a jumper or a biter, blind in one eye or deaf; any important information that will help me to know your dog better!

A typical day

Obviously I prefer nice weather days to rain, but New England doesn't always cooperate! I like to play with their favorite toys, tuggy and fetch are great! I also love snuffle mats if treats are okay with you, they reward dogs for sniffing, which can tire them out.

Pet care experience

I currently own 3 rescue dogs and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have a habit of loving what some would call "bad" or "untrainable" dogs. My dog, Ham, frequently lunges and nibbles my face. I am used to being jumped on and it doesn't bother me. Although I try to correct the behavior, I understand some dogs are just goofy. I adopted Toast when he was about 12 weeks old, so I have experience with puppies. My oldest dog is currently 15, so I'm great with senior dogs as well. I have experience walking, playing, boarding and doggy day camp. I hope that I can fit your needs :D

We have been working with Emily for several weeks now, and she has been great with the two boys. She either takes them for a walk or plays catch with them in the backyard. She is reliable, friendly, and the boys like her!

Emily is amazing with our puppy Duke. We can tell Emily cares for Duke like he is one of her dogs. Duke is excited to see Emily everyday and the updates we receive from emily are amazing. I would highly recommend Emily and will continue to use her.

Emily is awesome and I can tell from the photos that my nervous pup is super comfortable with her. There have been several times when she has been able to take care of Homer on short notice and she has been reliable and trustworthy.
