Animal lover ready to hang!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of pets since I was a child, with my family and family's friend's pets. I have taken care of dogs, cats, geckos, snakes, and fish. I am very gentle, friendly, and responsible. I have always had a huge love for animals of all kinds ever since I was a child, and am good at making them feel safe and comfortable with me. When I was in high school I volunteered with the local pet shelter's veterinary clinic, where I learned how to interact and handle animals in a comforting way while also getting a lot of comfort with animals myself. As a certified Wilderness EMT, I know how to respond in emergency situations and how to stay calm and collected and use these skills in my everyday life as well. I am also extremely clean, always leaving spaces better than I found them. I am very responsible with the things that I manage, and will take good care of your pets and home. I am very excited to have the opportunity to explore new beautiful places while helping someone else, and to learn how to be present with every space I inhabit.

Emily was a wonderful sitter and made sure our two pets were well taken care of during our trip. Would recommend!

Emily is an intuitive, gentle, and caring soul. Roscoe and Arnie adore her. She is very attentive, ensuring that they are walked, fed and well loved daily. Emily takes initiative to give them lots of adventure an d play, and I would trust my pets with her anytime.

A typical day

I am an avid outdoor lover, so I will happily take your furry friend on an adventure outside if that is what they love! I can take them to state parks, or on trails nearby that I know of. I am also happy to take them to parks, play games, or even just snuggle on the couch if that's what they need!

I am currently a full time student at UCSC, but my schedule is pretty free. I am especially free on weekends, but can stay for an extended time at someone's home whenever they need. I am available to come care for pets throughout the day in between classes for multiple walks or feeding times. Overall I'm pretty flexible!
