Pet Loving Teacher

Pet care experience

I've loved animals for a long time. When I was in college I started fostering kittens and dogs that needed a break from the shelter. Now I have a 12 year old cat and a 5 year old Sheppardlab mut. I'm comfortable giving Insulin shots to cats in need and administering oral medication. I love being out and about and meeting new furry friends!

Emily is the best! I had some complications with my trip and she was really helpful and flexible. I know my pup is in great hands with her!

Emily did an excellent job winning over my shy cats. They seemed to adore her. I highly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

I like walking dogs in the city. I'm comfortable taking dogs to a dog park once I get to know them. I'm happy to let your fur baby out or keep them company.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know what encourages your dog and what I can do to reassure them when they need. What's your dog's favorite walk and favorite toy?

A typical day

I like to take dogs for walks. Once your dog and I know each other a little better I love visiting dog parks. One of my favorites is Glen Carlin.

I'm in the thick of the school year, so I'm available most over breaks and weekends. I'm flexible with enough notice. I'm use to getting up early, and I dont mind being out late. Just let me know what you need.
