I love all animals and furbabies ◡̈

Pet care experience

My name is Emily, I am a full-time student at Western Michigan University majoring in early childhood education. I have been around pets my whole life, dogs, cats, fish, birds and cage animals (hamsters and guinea pigs). I understand the love for your furbabies, as I have my own furbabies, who are my entire world and I just want the best care and love for them. I love playing with my puppy, and taking her to the pet store, we love going on nature walks here in Kalamazoo/Portage at their trails. I can clean, take care of and groom your furbabies as well. I can ensure you can trust in my services, care, updates and pictures, and will be very satisfied, thank you so much! -E

Emily does a great job taking care of my cat. I’ve booked her multiple times and have been happy each time. I’d highly recommend her. She always provides a summary of the visit including comments about following my instructions as well as many pics. I will continue to book her in the future.

Emily is the best! She’s detailed, informative and great with meeting my pets needs. This is my second time booking her and will continue to do so. Highly recommend her.

Thank you Emily for checking on our cat while we were out of town! We appreciate you following all feeding instructions perfectly and for the thoughtful communication.

I cannot thank Emily enough for caring for our critters through the snow storm. And just like last time, they were all so well cared for!
