Pet care experience

Compassionate Care for All Pets

With over 8 years of experience in animal care, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of pets—including dogs, cats, rats, and even lizards! I’m confident handling pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions who need a bit of extra TLC. I also have experience administering medications like pills, topical creams, and pet inhalers. I’m always happy to learn your pet’s unique routine and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Since I care for pets in their own homes, I always try to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I stick to their usual routine—whether that means walks, meals, playtime, or meds—whatever they need to feel at ease. I know how important it is to have someone you trust in your home, so I’m always respectful of your space and do my best to leave things just as I found them (or better!). I’ll also send plenty of photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel reassured while you're away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and try to make the time you're gone as stress-free as possible for both of you.

Emily was amazing! She did a few drop ins while I was at work, kept me updated and sent me pictures! My dog loved her and I will definitely be asking for her help again!

Emily was absolutely wonderful with Ruby. She kept her happy and comfortable, was always on time for her potty breaks, and truly spent quality time caring for her. It was clear Ruby was well loved and in great hands. We would happily and confidently hire Emily again.

Schedule

I’m a student at the University of Minnesota and love spending my free time caring for animals. While my weekday schedule is limited due to classes and work, I’m fully available on Fridays and weekends and would be happy to dedicate that time to pet care. I look forward to meeting new pets and giving them the attention they deserve!

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, behaviors, or quirks I should be aware of. It's also important for me to understand how your dog interacts with other dogs, children, and people in general. This helps ensure a safe and enjoyable walk for everyone involved!
