Nurturing & responsible caretaker
Pet care experience
I have experience fostering dogs in New York City, and I am a naturally patient and nurturing person. Rest assured that I will be sure to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. About this sitter: Hi, my name is Emily. I am in my late 20s, and I moved to Atlanta from New York City three years ago. I lived in NYC for 2 years, and I became very involved in an organization called Stray from the Heart. I fostered and rehabilitated dogs for months at a time. Once they were ready, I worked closely with other volunteers to find the dog a permanent home. Whenever these families traveled, I stayed in their homes to take care of their dog. I am nurturing, patient, playful, and loving. I am an experienced dog-walker, trainer, and sitter. In New York, I also earned my Master of Social Work degree from NYU, and I am currently starting my private practice providing psychotherapy for children, adults, couples, and families. Why I love dog sitting We have always had 2-3 rescue dogs in my home growing up and I have always loved them. I will never forget my favorite black lab cattle dog mix, Radar, who was my primary childhood dog and got me through the best of days and my weaker moments. Dogs have always brought me great joy. Meet my pets My mother lives about 10 miles away from me with 4 beagles, and I have a Jack Russell mix, Lumi in my home that I rescued a year ago. I live an active and healthy lifestyle and would be glad to take your dog outside as much as he or she would like! My experience administering medication I have cared for dogs with various types of illnesses, and I am comfortable administering medications.

Emily did a great job taking care of Bill! She was a pleasure to book with :)
Emily is a lovely young woman. We had her over to meet us and the dogs and knew we could trust her to take care of them. We were gone for a week-end and she communicated by text to let us know how things were going. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Emily watched my two dogs recently and did an excellent job. She kept me up to date and was quick to respond to my texts. My dogs were happy and healthy when I got home. She even slept with my 170lb Great Dane without complaint since that is what he is used to!
Emily was great! I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She kept me informed all through the weekend and was very dependable. My girls loved her and I was at ease all weekend. She left the house just how she found it, and I came home to two happy girls! I will definitely be using Emily again!
