Clients can expect me to feed, walk, and entertain their pets, as needed. I will administer medication, too, if necessary. And if persuaded, I might even clean out the litter box lol.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

The more communication the better. Is your doggo friendly with other dogs? Should we cross the street in order to avoid the delivery person? Do they have a favorite spot to do their business?

A typical day

My favorite thing to do with my dog, and all the dogs I watch, is to take them on sniffing walks around the neighborhood. But fetch inside the house is fun too, especially if it's raining!

Emily was amazing with my kitties. I felt very comfortable leaving them in her hands while I was away. I highly recommend her services and will book her again.

Emily took wonderful care of our dog Frankie over Memorial Day weekend, and I couldn't recommend her more highly. Despite a rainy weekend, she made sure Frankie got plenty of walks and playtime alongside her own sweet dog, Billie Holiday. Emily genuinely loves animals, and it shows - Frankie came home happy, well cared for, and completely exhausted from all the fun. She's reliable, attentive, and truly treats your pet like family. Definitely recommend!

Emily is my go-to person for taking care of our dog while we're away on family vacations or weekend getaways. She's reliable and our dog LOVES her. Can't recommend her enough!

I met Emily nearly ten years ago while we were both walking our dogs. The dogs, Lester and Hazel, became fast friends and so did we. Emily was very attentive toward Lester. She has always wanted to learn more about dogs regarding training, care, diet and needs. Through her long walks with Lester (and now Billie Holiday), she met many people in our neighborhood. Several of them have trusted Emily with caring for their dogs (and homes) while they vacationed This includes my family. Their trust, and mine, was rewarded. The dogs, and the humans, adore her. Emily is a dog lover, but not a dog “spoiler”, she does what is best for the dog, not whatever the dog wants. You will not find a more loving and conscientious caregiver for dogs and other animals.
