Highlights
Pet care experience
Gerbils to Mastiffs I love them all
I grew up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, a gerbil, and horses. Besides my childhood pets, I've cared for a wide range of fur babies over the past 15+ years, from a Mastiff to hairless guinea pigs to lizards! I have a huge soft-spot for seniors, I cared for my senior kitty and 2 senior horses until it was their time to cross the rainbow bridge. It's important to me to give our pets the best golden years possible! I'm comfortable giving meds to cats and dogs, including insulin, vitamin B12, and allergy shots. In December 2025, I took a Pet First Aid & K9 CPR class at FVCC to make sure I have the skills and knowledge needed to keep your furbaby happy, healthy, and safe! I also have pet-sitting insurance to help give peace of mind while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
Unfortunately I can't host sleepovers at my home, but I treat any house I'm watching as my own. I make sure the pet(s) and I stay in the right rooms and I always clean up after myself so your home is ready for you when you return!
Ratings and reviews
Emily was awesome. Was able to handle our large great Dane and he had a blast. Thanks again.
Emily took amazing care of our pups while we were out for the day on Flathead Lake. She came over for a meet and greet beforehand, and was even diligent about requesting the information she needed from us so that it wouldn't fall through the cracks. We got lots of pics and updates during her visits, too! Thank you, Emily! We will be in touch if we need you again during our time in the area, which I'm sure we will!
Emily is wonderful. She took care of both of my dogs and they were super happy when I got home! Emily is also very communicative and reaches out with any questions. I highly recommend her and I am so glad I found her. PS so are my dogs!
Emily is great with my rabbit and dogs!
You won't find anyone any better than Emily!!! Emily has been my ongoing pet sitter for three and a half months when I have had to work out of town. Emily has never failed to provide excellent service. She provides fun reports and pictures of the pet antics and behaviors, has an "intuituve feel" for the pets needs and personalities, and has great communication skills. She is friendly and personable, always leaves the home neater than when she got there, and provides other acts of kindness and consideration like bringing in mail and packages and leaving porch lights on for you if you are arriving home after dark. On a scale of one to ten, with ten being the high score, I give Emily a twenty!
Emily was great! She spent extra time with my kitty and was great about providing pictures and updates.

Schedule
I recently started working at the North Valley Food Bank in Whitefish, so I have limited availability on Mondays and Wednesdays. I love house sitting so your pet's comfortable in their home and I can take them out as much as they want. Otherwise my schedule is fairly flexible so I can stop by throughout the day!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsEmily can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, like allergies, meds, or supplements. Also let me know if there's any behaviors you're working on, like no jumping on people, or if there's any part of the house or furniture they're not allowed in. Please also let me know if they're extra sensitive to heat/cold or noise like thunder or fireworks, or if they have any special mealtime or bedtime routines!
