Hi! I would love to watch your pet

Pet care experience

I always grew up having dogs and cats as pets. I always have loved being in the company of animals, they’re the best! When I became a teen I started advertising pet sitting in my neighborhood. I have taken care of dogs and cats in my neighborhood for 6 years, since I was 13. My services spread word to mouth over the years. I regularly sit for 10 different households. I walk, feed, and play with the pets.

Emily was wonderful! We look forward to having her stay with our babies again in a few weeks. She was responsive and gentle with our anxious pup! It’s a relief to have someone we can depend on for our sitting needs. Thank you Emily!

Emily watched our dog and cat for a few days and was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and well taken care of and it was nice not to have to worry about anything while traveling.

Emily was an outstanding house and pet sitter. My shy cat immediately warmed up to her (very unusual!) and she was great with my rescue dog, too! The house looked great and I would definitely reach out to Emily again next time.

Safety, trust & environment

While checking on the pets at their home, I will take them out to use the restroom, feed them, make sure they have fresh water, clean the cats litter box, cuddle them, and play with them. While dog walking, I will make sure the dog is safe and secure on their leash/harness and that the dog has a sufficiently timed walk.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know beforehand if your dog has any triggers such as thunder scaring them. I need to know if your pet has any allergies. Also, let me know if your dog pulls on walks. I would especially like to know which toy is your dog or cats favorite!

A typical day

I love to play fetch with dogs! I will play with your dog using their favorite toy. I will also take your dog on fun lengthy walks on their favorite walking trails.
