Housesitting Expert, Work from Home
Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Emily, and I often will house sit with my husband, Jazz, if he's also available. We are animal lovers and have been watching dogs (and other creatures) for over 10 years. When house sitting you can rest-assured that your home will be treated with the utmost respect, and I am happy to do other house sitting tasks while you're away (ie: watering plants). Over the years we've cared for a variety of animals from dogs to giant tortoises, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, and reptiles! Jazz and I do our best to be flexible and accommodating, so ask us anything! We'll do what it takes to keep your pet happy and healthy, and have experience with high maintenance dogs who may suffer from anxiety. We value attention to detail and will always follow your directions to the “T”. Additionally, we compete for the love of your dog, so there won’t be any lack of attention! I can ensure your dog is properly cared for with all of our hearts. I love the experience of getting to know your pet over the course of a few days, and it is ALWAYS hard to say goodbye. We have had exclusively positive experiences with dogs throughout our lives, and we're excited to make more memories with yours. Thanks for trusting us with your best friend!
Reviews
Emily did a great job. She was helpful and attentive and very communicative. She left our house in perfect condition and Moon happy and relaxed.
Emily was so attentive and sweet to my dog, Macy! She checked in often and put my mind at ease that Macy was being looked after well while I was out of town. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.
Emily did a great job taking care of our little dog for two weeks, as well as taking care of our home. Her communication was professional, consistent, and caring. This was far better than the result of dropping him at dog-sitting for two weeks.
Emily was so great with our pup. She stayed at our house for the week & was great at keeping in touch & sending picture updates. She left our home in perfect condition when we returned & our dog already misses her!

I have many references for housesitting, I never let your dog off the leash when taking walks, and before leaving the house I always double check the harness/leash for security. I will follow your rules regarding dogs being on the furniture, if allowed, my favorite thing is to snuggle up on the couch with them while I work or watch TV!
Information Emily P. would like to know about your pet
Here is what I'd like to know about your dog(s) before housesitting in your home: 1) What is your regular schedule like? (Food, Potty, Walks, Medications, etc) 2) What is your pet's temperament? (shy, excitable, will jump on you, scared easily, barks at other dogs, etc) This is just so I know what to expect, or what to wear, hah! 3) What are the rules? (OK on furniture, or not? etc) 4) What commands should we practice? (Sit, stay, shake, etc) 5) What kinds of treats are okay, and how much? (Apples? Blueberries? No human food?) And anything else you think I should know!
A typical day
First thing in the morning is going out for a quick potty break, then feed breakfast before going on a nice walk. If you have a yard, fetch is always a favorite, and who doesn't love snuggles? I rely heavily on your preferred schedule and activities, so please share so I can keep to your regular routine!
