Reliable Care & Happy Pets
Hi, I’m Emily—a dependable & attentive animal lover. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have a calm, patient personality and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all ages and energy levels. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply keeping a consistent routine while you’re away, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, medication routines, and special care instructions, and I know how important updates and photos can be while you’re away from your pets. Outside of pet care, I have a professional background in accounting and 14 years of military service, which helped shape my strong sense of responsibility, organization, and trustworthiness. I also love gardening and spending time outdoors, so I’m happy to accommodate pets who enjoy walks, fresh air, and extra attention. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing loving, dependable care you can feel confident about!

Ratings and reviews
I can't say enough how grateful we are to have met Emily. She did a wonderful job with our very active dog and cat. We couldn't have been happier with her. Highly recommended!
Emily is amazing with our puppy!! She has walked him multiple times now and is very reliable and spends such quality time with him! It is hard being away at work but I feel so much better knowing he has such a great time walking and playing with her. She sends lots of pictures of him having fun and gives us updates on how the day went :)
Emily is very thoughtful and detailed. She sent updates and photos so I knew my little sweetie was having a great time. I would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again!
I have two large dogs with lots of energy. I can always tell when Emily has been there because they are so tired. She has really helped me out in a pinch, especially when I work long hours. We have used other dog sitters that I couldn’t even tell if anyone had been there because the dogs had as much energy as always. I used to come home to tables, chairs and even cabinets chewed up because the dogs have so much energy. She is amazing with them and I couldn’t recommend her more.
Emily is excellent! She has never backed out on any scheduled appointments and is always on time! I have two small dogs that bark at everyone but they adore her! She is trustworthy and just a lovely person in general.
There are so many fantastic things to say about Emily I do not know where to start! We have three large dogs, a yellow lab, German Shepherd mix and Aussie. She was able to handle all three of them without any difficulty whatsoever! She even was nice enough to check in on our cats. Emily is dependable, punctual, and professional. We have gone through so many different Dog walkers and housesitters and we had issues with people not showing up or not treating on animals well. We have nanny cams set up in the house and Emily was always kind and sweet to the dogs. She is better with them than we are 😅. I highly recommend her services!

Schedule
My schedule is fairly flexible, which allows me to accommodate walks, and drop-in visits throughout the week. I do my best to keep routines consistent and communicate clearly about availability and scheduling.
