Love long walks and all dogs!
Pet care experience
I live in Washington, Dc and have dog experience for 20+ years. My family fosters and assists with a rescue in Virginia. We've had a few family dogs and I currently have one of my own. I love long walks around the city with your pup, going to dog parks, etc. I'm glad to do weekend sitting or evening/weekend walks if needed. I typically work 9-6 during weekdays but am available otherwise. I’m currently working from home and can do quick walks occasionally on weekdays. I can provide bathing services and administer medicines. For dog sitting needs, I’m happy to stay in your home (but will be bringing my dog). I can also do multiple long drop in visits in a day if you’re out of town. If staying in your home, I can complete other chores (water plants, cleaning, mail/trash collection) and care for other pets. I can provide references for cats and dogs. Please note that if you select dog daycare or boarding, your dog must get along with other dogs and will have a friend - my 45lb female (spayed) Dalmatian.
Reviews
Emily is one of my go to dog sitters. She is always accommodating to my pups needs and takes care of her like she was her own. Highly recommended!

Safety, trust & environment
I ensure dogs are properly harnessed when walking snd that they don’t pick up anything on the street. I supervise dogs in fenced yards. I ensure interiors are free of dangerous items pets might eat. I confirm training commands with owners and usual routines before taking pets out of the home.
