Dog Lover Providing Excellent Care

Pet care experience

Interacting with animals has always been the highlight of my day. I have three years of professional pet care experience, and I love what I do. My home has always been full of living things, including dogs, birds, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and sugar gliders. For these reasons, I have the experience and passion to provide the highest quality of care. I am a part-time college student working towards my bachelor's degree in biology at Grand View. I have a very flexible schedule, which means that I am able to devote plenty of time and attention to your animals. I will keep in touch with you while your precious pets are under my care, so you won't have to worry about their safety and comfort. I would love an opportunity to work with you and your furry friends!

Emily is the best! We’ve booked her several times and she takes wonderful care of our beloved pets. We love how she shares pics and keeps us posted on what’s happening at our house while we’re away.

Emily was great with my anxious dog and two cats. She responds quickly to requests and other communication. I felt absolutely comfortable knowing that my pets we're under her care.

Information Emily R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to be aware of any special circumstances in caring for your pets or home. I am uncomfortable walking very large dogs (over 100 pounds) on a leash, because I would feel terrible if they got away from me while they were under my care. However, I am happy to care for large dogs in a closed environment, such as a fenced yard.

A typical day

For dogs with a lot of energy, I'm happy to run around in the yard, or play fetch. I can also give calmer pets company. Either way, your pets will get all the personal attention they need.
