Pet care experience
❤️ I am a December 2021 graduate from the University of Arizona with a Bachelors degree in Animal Science 🐻⬇️ 🧡 I attended 1 year of veterinary school at St. George’s University in 2023. I have a vast amount of knowledge from my years of experience and extensive schooling. The island of Grenada was not the best fit for me for school. Therefore, I will be re applying and going back to school within the next few years! Feel free to ask me more about my education 😊 💛 I have taken animal behavior and animal medicine classes, worked as a veterinary technician, certified through my work in pet CPR/emergency protocols, and have pet sit numerous dogs with a wide variety of behaviors and medical needs. 💚 I work hard to prioritize your pets needs and comfort. I am a very active person so I will be able to provide your pet(s) with the optimal care and affection they deserve, if they demand high energy play, or not! 💙 I am currently working at DePAW, Pet Resort. A daycare/training/boarding/grooming facility, where I am a daycare attendant supervising behavior during play time. I am trained to recognize safe and unsafe behavior tendencies prior to escalation. 💜 Your pet(s) MUST be okay with me leaving to go to work for 8 hour shifts! I do have hour long breaks, and can provide a potty break mid day if need be! So your pet(s) will have to be able to hold it for at least 4 hours. 💖 You and your pet(s) will be my top priority while your pet(s) is/are under my care. I would be so excited to be given the opportunity to work with you and your furry best friend(s)!
Reviews
Emily was an excellent sitter. She is reliable, understanding, and kind. We are grateful she is willing to watch our many animals! It means so much to comfortably take a short trip and know our babies are being cared for.
Treats my dog like her own.
Thanks for taking care of Jack. I am looking for some additional help next week if you're available next week. Let me know.
Emily was AWESOME! I have a highly anxious cat who can get aggressive when she feels scared & Emily didnt give up & kept coming to feed her with TOTAL patience. Going on vacation can be hard for me knowing theres a chance a sitter may not feel comfortable continuing to feed my cat & she made all those nerves go away. I absolutely will continue to rebook her for all of my trips. Thanks so much Emily!!

Whatever the preferred source of play is, bring it on! I love to provide lick mats, snuffle mats, or any other toys/games that will stimulate your pet(s) mentally and physically!
