Animal 💗er here to comfort ur pets

Pet care experience

I've been working with Oakland Animal Services and CatTown to foster several animals very successfully for the past 5 years, but have been taking care of cats and dogs since childhood, 28 years ago. I'm patient with your animals, make sure they follow your desired rules, and give them a little extra love while you're gone, because missing you will be hard. Not to mention, I'm a professional photographer, so depending on the light, the photos I send of your babies may be amazing. Besides from that I just genuinely care about animals, enjoy caring for them, and have the experience doing so.

Emily was great at sending updates and lots of adorable pictures of our dogs while we were away on an extended trip. We really appreciated her communication!

I came home to a happy kitty and a clean house. Emily was friendly, communicative, and patient with my elder kitties quirks.

Emily helped us tremendously when we were in desperate need for help with our cat! A few days before our 3-week vacation, our cat was diagnosed with diabetes and needed injections. Our scheduled sitter was not comfortable with injections so thankfully we found Emily. She was wonderful with him and provided updates along with amazing photos. Would definitely recommend Emily!

Emily was great with my motley crew of needy critters. A pleasure to work with… I would definitely recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard at my home, but don't let cats outside. My home is very cat and dog proof. I am also very respectful of your home should I house sit for you. I do not cross client's boundaries, clean up after myself and try and leave your home better than I found it.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

I'm excited to hear about all your pets unique quirks and needs. Don't hesitate to include any medical or behavioral issues we may encounter. I'm also interested in what they love, favorite toys, and how to best show them love!

A typical day

I love running on the beach or trail running with dogs I spend time with, weather and energy level permitting. For dogs that need a slower pace, we enjoy steady long walks with a few extended sniff breaks at exciting green spaces near your home. For older or less energetic pets, a lounge day with optional snuggles is always on the menu!
