Dog mom looking to love more pups!
Pet care experience
I grew up with dogs/ taking care of neighbors pets and now have a 3 year old dog of my own (Cooper!). Cooper is very friendly and we’d both love having some extra pup friends around for walks, dog park visits, and playtime. I have a 1-bedroom apartment with multiple dog beds and allow pets on the furniture/in my bed with me if they prefer. I have a large fenced in courtyard and multiple dog parks nearby.
Reviews
Emily was wonderful. She watched our 7 month old pup for just shy of two weeks and was super flexible when it came to pick up. Our flight home from Europe was essentially canceled, but Emily was very understanding. Izzy, our dog, fell in love with Emily's dog, Cooper, and we got regular updates with photos and videos of them all having a good time. I would definitely recommend Emily to anyone to watch their dog.
Emily was fantastic! She communicated well and sent regular updates and photos. My dog was so happy staying with her!
We highly recommend Emily for any older dogs with some separation anxiety. We hired Emily for a long weekend to watch our sweet 7 year old rescue, Maddie, who is still going through separation anxiety training and Emily took such amazing care of her! It's obvious that Emily loves dogs deeply and takes her care of them very, very seriously. She gave Maddie so much love and comfort that helped her feel right at home. Emily took her out and about to get in some good walks and dog park socialization and Emily's dog Cooper was also so sweet with Maddie too. She sent us tons of check in photos, including ones of our dogs snuggling! We were truly able to get away for the weekend and relax knowing that Maddie was in fantastic hands in a very loving home. We will book her again! 11/10 would recommend!
We hired Emily for the weekend to watch our needy fur baby and she did a wonderful job. We stayed at a hotel and forgot to pack poop bags and she was kind enough to bring some for us. Thank you for your great service and for taking such great care of Pumpkin.

Constant supervision in-person or through my pet camera. If needed, I can easily crate your pup anytime I am out of the house as well!
Home
Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for me to know that the dog does not have any issues being in the same home with other dogs - no territorial behavior - and whether they have any sensitivities/triggers (ie loud noises, men, kids, etc). Additionally, it’s helpful for me to know their house training status and the commands they respond to best.
A typical day
I love dogs and want to make sure they are happy and having a good time. With my dog (and Rover dogs) I like to go on long walks along the navy yard waterfront -including a 3 mile trail on the riverwalk nearby. I also will play fetch at the dog park and have tug of war/play time with toys at home.
