I'll love them like my own!

Pet care experience

I have had dogs since the moment I came into this world! I have had experience with the very young and the very old, shy, friendly, tiny, huge, and ones with medical problems. I've cared for dogs, cats, fish, ducks, chickens, ferrets, sugar gliders, rabbits, and even tarantulas! I'm comfortable with all critters and would love to meet yours.

Emily has been great with our dog and we feel very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. She sent pictures during every visit and came for the visits within the specified time frame. We will definitely use her again!

Emily is. The. BEST! She is kind, capable, professional, and trustworthy. She goes above and beyond the basics of your pet's physical care and ensures your pet feels supported and cared for when you're gone. We do not worry about a single thing when we leave our cat Minerva in her care. And when she house sits, I think our house is tidier when we come home than when we left. You will never regret having Emily take care of your fur babies! ❤

Emily is absolutely wonderful. I occasionally go on extended trips and don't like to leave my boy Frank (Cat) alone too long. Emily kept Frank company while I was gone and followed my directions to the T. My only complaint is that Frank likes her too much and was only mildly excited to see me when I got back!

Emily is absolutely amazing. She’s the kind of person I want watching my fur babies! Not only did she do a great job watching them, she kept me informed of how they were doing. She even sent me the best thank you card! I adore her and can’t wait to rebook with her!

Playtime is a must! As long as your dog wants to play, I'm happy to play too. I'll take him/her on walks with lots of interesting smells and sights. Once your beloved pet it tuckered out, I'm happy to spoil him/her with lots of pets and belly rubs.
