Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I primarily work remotely, which allows me to be home and present with pets throughout most of the day. While I occasionally need to be on-site for work, about 90% of my schedule is remote, giving me plenty of flexibility to provide attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I also have a park right behind my home where Tommy Lee and I regularly go for walks, fresh air, and exercise, giving visiting pets plenty of opportunities for activity and enrichment during their stay. Because I spend so much time at home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of opportunities for interaction, exercise, and care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving home environment where pets are treated like family, not just guests. As a dog mom, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. My dog, Tommy Lee, is incredibly friendly, social, and loves both people and other animals. Because she shares our home, I do require that pets staying with us are friendly, well-socialized, and do not have a history of aggressive behavior toward people or other animals. This helps ensure a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for everyone. I work hard to create an environment where pets can relax, feel secure, and receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Communication is also very important to me, so I’ll be happy to send regular photo and video updates throughout your pet’s stay. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease from the moment they arrive until the moment they head home❣️

Information Emily R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any medical needs, medications, allergies, fears, behavioral concerns, or special routines before your booking. I want to make sure I provide the safest and most comfortable experience possible for your pet. If your dog will be staying in my home, they must be friendly with other dogs and people, as my dog Tommy Lee is very social and enjoys having furry friends around. Open communication helps ensure a great experience for everyone!

A typical day

A typical day includes plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I work primarily remotely, so pets are rarely left alone and get plenty of companionship throughout the day. I have a dog-friendly park right behind my home for walks and enrichment, and my dog Tommy Lee loves making new friends. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I tailor their care to their individual needs and routine!

Dog Mom Who Treats Pets Like Family

Pet care experience

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I’m truly passionate about. Growing up, my family always had anywhere from three to five dogs at a time, which taught me from a young age how to love, care for, and be responsible for animals. Those experiences helped shape my deep appreciation for the companionship, trust, and joy that pets bring into our lives. As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. My dog, Tommy Lee, is my world and one of the most important parts of my life. Because I know how much she means to me, I understand how much your pet means to you. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated with the same love, attention, and care that I give Tommy every day🤎

I highly recommend Emily R. as a pet caregiver with your company. She has personally cared for my two cats while I was out of town and has also helped care for our prior roommate’s dachshund when we lived together. Emily is incredibly reliable, responsible, and attentive, and I have always felt completely comfortable leaving my pets in her care. Beyond her experience with animals, she is a genuinely kind, patient, and compassionate person who treats both people and pets with warmth and respect. I am confident that she would provide safe, loving care and excellent customer service to any family trusting her with their pets.

Em has always had a natural way with animals. Growing up, she was constantly surrounded by them, and she has always been the person who notices what an animal needs before anyone else does. She is patient, caring, responsible, and incredibly empathetic. I would trust her completely to care for any pet like they were her own.

I have had the joy of watching Emily transform into the loving adult she is now. I have seen her dedicated care to a rescue dog that she took in several years ago. She loves animals and has the patience to understand the needs of the pet first.
