Pet care experience

WFH, one client at a time

I grew up with dogs and ever since my husband and I became homeowners, we knew we’d have dogs around. We love our rescue dog, Biscuit, to the moon and back because all animals deserve to be spoiled. He had some anxiety issues when we first brought him home from the rescue but with work, patience, and consistency, I'd like to think he is enjoying the easy life now and is a super easy, mild-mannered dog. I am ready to care for your pet with compassion and attention.

Emily and Patrick were so great with my dog, Smiley! They were so flexible when plans went awry and the updates were so sweet. It was great seeing Smiley and Biscuit together throughout the stay and I knew my dog was safe and happy.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 05, 2025

Loved!! Emily is so great with my dog and so so kind and flexible when communicating plans. I am so grateful for her thoughtful questions during or Meet & Greet, the pictures she sends during the day, and her willingness to chat throughout the process to make sure Maggie has an easy and good stay with her!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 22, 2025

Emily was amazing! We did a meet and greet a few days before hand and then on the actual day, my dog remembered her and was so excited to be back. I was worried because he’s a bit of a Velcro dog but Emily said he slept behind her while she worked and spent some time outside with her dog as well playing. 10/10, I will book Emily and Patrick next time I need a sitter.

Emily and Patrick were amazing and they took such good care of our baby, Stella! We loved seeing all of their updates with her and Biscuit while we were away! We will definitely choose them again to watch Stella :)

Emily & Patrick are wonderful pet people! They took great care of Karson while we were away and sent us updates as promised. Karson loved hanging with his new friend Biscuit (Emily & Patrick's dog) too! Highly recommend them!

Schedule

I work from home every day of the week except Mondays so I’m around to tend to your pup’s needs. I am used to walking my dog at least twice a day in my dog-friendly neighborhood, which is also near Herring Run Park.

Pets

A typical day

We will go on walks together and enjoy our front and back porch if the weather permits. We have lots of toys, snacks (if allowed), and puzzles for your pup to stay active. Obviously, lots of pets.

My dog Biscuit can seem a little headstrong toward some other dogs (although he has never been aggressive), which is why we request a meet and greet ahead of time. Generally, it's also great to know the energy level of your pup. Any special nuances or quirks about your dog, please let me know :)
