Highlights
Pet care experience
I WFH = constant care & ♥️
I’m able to provide constant care. Sometimes I like to take a gym break for 1-2 hrs. I’ve cared for dogs & cats my entire life & am confident managing daily walks, feeding schedules, & medication where needed. I’m particularly comfortable maintaining established routines & providing a calm, steady presence for pets who may feel unsettled while their owners are away. I’m also organised, always respectful when it comes to home care & I’m mindful of neighbours & building environments. Above all, I’m dependable & take seriously the trust involved in caring for both a home & beloved pets.

Safety, trust & environment
I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life, & sadly our last family dog passed away a few years ago. Since I was in the middle of moving at the time, I haven’t welcomed another dog of my own yet. That experience deepened my understanding of just how much our pets mean to us. They’re part of our comfort, and our family. Because of that, I deeply respect the trust involved in leaving them in someone else’s care. Looking after other people’s pets has genuinely brought me a lot of fulfilment. I’m very comfortable following established routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or simply recognising when a pet needs play, reassurance, or space. I understand how important stability is when their parents (you) are away. I know how important peace of mind is when you travel. I’ll treat your home & your fur family with the same care, respect, & attentiveness I would my own. :)
Ratings and reviews
1000000/10 would recommend Emily! From the very first message, I knew that Emily was going to be a great fit, not only for my dog but for myself as well. Before sitting for my dog, she came over to do a meet and greet and from the minute she walked in, her personality was BEAMING. We walked through my dog’s entire routine from morning until night and she spent time trying to know me and my pup. From there, she came twice to walk my dog before pet sitting so that she could get familiar with her inside and outside of the home. Emily was so communicative throughout the entire stay and put me at such ease that I was able to enjoy my time away, knowing that I had someone that I trusted to take care of my dog and my home as I would. I cannot recommend Emily enough, and anyone would be lucky to have her watch our precious babies. She truly is an angel of a person.
Emily is the best dog sitter I’ve ever worked with! She is so kind, caring and responsive and you can tell she adores all dogs and they love her back! We are so lucky to have her!!
Emily is the best! She’s sat for us twice now, this most recent one an extended stay and I can honestly say, I think our pups prefer her over us. She gives them so much love & attention, sends frequent updates & pictures and is extremely respectful of our home. Best dog/home sitter we’ve ever had!
Emily was the best sitter we could have asked for! Very welcoming and communicative and gave our cat a ton of love and affection. She will be our next call!
Emily was stellar! She gave us frequent check ins with lots of pictures and took such great care of our puppy. It really allowed us to enjoy our time away while still being in touch with what’s happening at home! It was a perfect sit, will absolutely hire again ❤️
Super attentive and wonderful to have over! My puppy loves when she comes to visit!

Schedule
I work remotely in sport psychology & am currently writing a book, which means I’m home most of the day & able to offer steady companionship & consistency. I live a quiet, healthy lifestyle & enjoy calm, cosy days at home — long walks & peaceful evenings.
