Pet care experience

Experienced & Reliable :) ♥

Hello :) had a quick break! Now I’m back :) I absolutely LOVE this job 🐶🐈♥️ I’m reliable, trust worthy, experienced, and patient with good communication skills. I understand how hard it is to leave your pet! (My dog is my baby) so I’d love to put your mind at rest and make your trip as comfortable as possible! I was born in England and have lived here for 9 years now. I Absolutely love dogs and spending time with them always puts a big smile on my face :) I’ve had a dog my whole life and couldn’t live without one, taking my dog over the forest to run and swim is one of my favourite things to do, I’m currently studying a Vet Tech course at home so I have a very free open schedule. I’m very confident with all animals but dogs in particular (I definitely love cats too though) and I’ll treat your pet like my own and will treat his/her individual needs, can play/relax with your dog/walk/give medication/etc, I have a diabetic dog myself and I inject him twice a day so I’m confident if you have a diabetic pet too. I have experience at a dog kennel, I am comfortable around nervous dogs and have spent time with a lot of rescues. If your dog is high energy- I’d love to run with them. Please give me all the info about your pets, you can’t give me too much! I always want to make sure we’re both on the same page. I’m very reliable and I can also attend to house needs like collecting your mail or watering your garden etc. I’m looking forward to meeting all your pets! I’m happy to take on long term clients too. *NEW CUSTOMER DISCOUNT REFERRAL CODE* *USE REFERRAL CODE BELOW TO GET $20 OFF YOUR FIRST ROVER BOOKING* *PLEASE CLICK LINK* EMILYP21095, https://www.rover.com/sit/emilyp21095 -any questions feel free to message me! :)

Emily was amazing with my pets! She is clearly very comfortable with larger dogs and respectful to their quirks. I could tell on the first visit that my German Shepherd loved her and accepted her as part of the group by how quickly she calmed down and offered her toys to Emily. Emily did a great job of checking in with me and was even sweet enough to clean up a throw up issue that my dog had. Will certainly book her again for our next trip!

When I stay with your dog we will have so much fun! I would love to know their favorite toys/treats etc, I can walk them around the Neighbourhoods, paths, trails, woods etc. I would love to know if they love their belly scratched/ head rubbed. We can also just relax on the sofa. I can do whatever your dog loves to do!
