NW DC Pet Lover with Flexible Hours

Pet care experience

I've grown up with dogs and cats since birth! I've experienced big dogs and tiny ones and everything in between. I love taking care of animals and though I'm too squeamish to be a veterinarian, I have plenty of attention, affection, and joy to share!

Emily was very responsive and great with our dog!

Emily truly loves all animals as if they were her own. She grew up with dogs and if it weren't for building restrictions I'm sure she would own as many as she could manage. Emily is incredibly responsible, attentive, patient and loving and your dog will love her!

Safety, trust & environment

I'm always extra cautious with other peoples' animals, and I would follow the lead of the owner in how they prefer to handle playtime, treats, socializing, discipline, etc. I want to disrupt them and the owner as little as possible. I tend to try to avoid other dogs while on walks to decrease any chance of a bad encounter. I'm very reliable and responsible in client homes, including many stints as a babysitter throughout my adolescene and young adulthood.

Information Emily R. would like to know about your pet

In addition to any medical information, special dietary needs, or other situations, I'd like to know the general personality of the pup, favorite games or toys, favorite or normal walking routines, any friendly dogs/owners they normally encounter--anything and everything! I want to ensure a good and happy time for both animal and owner.

A typical day

I love to play with the dogs favorite toys and to give them fun challenges to get treats. I love long walks and love to explore parks and would love some extra company!
