Pet care experience

Another home for every wagging tail

I’ve taken care of all sorts of dogs since I was young. I took care of dogs for my neighbors and family friends. My family and I started fostering when I was 11. We had foster dogs with all sorts of circumstances, from dogs recovering from surgery to pregnant dogs. We even ended up adopting two of the dogs we fostered!

Emily was an incredible dog sitter for Cannoli! She was attentive, caring, and treated Cannoli as if he was her own. And I’m sure he enjoyed the chance to run around with all the space he had! Highly recommend Emily for anyone in need of a sitter!

Emily was very responsive and loving to Wilson. She is on time and responsible and we’d love to board Wilson with her again!

Schedule

I’m currently working part-time and taking classes online, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your dog! I mostly work week days, either in the morning from 10:00 to 4:00 or nights from 2:00 to 8:00.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m currently in a 4 story house. I have a unfenced backyard with ample space for your dog to run around. I am also located near Volunteer Park, which also has tons of space for dogs to roam around. I’m not opposed to dogs on furniture and usually allow them to roam around a freely. But if your dog is crate trained, I can make sure they are safely in their crate when no one is home and at night.
