Pet care experience

I grew up with Japanese Chins running at my feet as a toddler as my mother ethically bred and showed them. In middle school, my family welcomed a retired champion Standard Poodle. I cared for him into his senior age (15), where I helped him get up safely when he needed help, coaxed him through thunderstorms, and trained him a plethora of tricks. I learned how to properly brush, bathe, and handle a Standard Poodle. Nowadays, I own a Long Hair Chihuahua named Percy as an emotional support animal. I respect and love dogs so much, and I understand if a dog takes a moment to open up. I also always safely walk any and all dogs on a leash, spend a bit too much time making sure they have their favorite blanket just so, and sleep with my Percy every night. Your pets are my pets!! I love seeing their personality bloom and giving them kisses. 💖

I highly recommend Emily for dog sitting! She cared for my senior dog, from ages 12-15 when I would go on trips. She was so caring! She would entice him to eat, comfort him in thunderstorms and help him to get up when his legs were failing. She was on top of everything! Emily is hands-on, very aware of a dog's needs, and adjusts to the pet's needs.

Information Emily O. would like to know about your pet

I have an easy copy and paste questionnaire, including information about medical history with your pet(s), behavioral information about your pet, and more, that I send to new clients. Being unprepared for your pet(s)? Not on my watch!!

A typical day

I love doing everything with dogs! Of course, I go on walks with dogs, but I go the extra mile. I love chatting with them and asking their “opinion” on things, such as whether it is time to water my plants or if it is time for a treat. With my Chihuahua, I love to lay down on the floor so I am at his eye level and give him kisses and pet him. He loves this!! Every Chihuahua I have laid down with casually since loves it too. Of course, I would lay around your dog, give them kisses, and hugs too!! While Percy isn’t always the brightest bulb, I love to practice tricks. I grew up with a Standard Poodle, a rather smart dog breed. I taught him to sit, stay, crawl, hug, speak, “find it” (find toy hidden somewhere), and the names of many toys. So, whether your dog mixes up sit and down like my Chihuahua (he’s doing his best, and I love him for it) or knows every trick in the book, I am happy to practice!! I also love making sure bedding is ~ just so ~ for any dog I sit. For my Chihuahua it is arranging the blankets perfectly. For the senior Standard Poodle, it was making sure he was comfy, knowing how to help him get up when needed, and making sure he got a blanket when needed. I love finding out about each dog’s personality, so I can help make them comfiest.

Every day is a pet day for me as I own a Chihuahua. I free feed him whenever we do not have a guest, but he transitions easily to eating an exact amount. We also go on walks. He is happy to find new friends around his size! However, for larger dogs (aka over 8 pounds), he will not be included on walks, check-ins, boarding, or house sitting.
