Run, play, and snuggle

Pet care experience

With a parent formerly a vet tech, dog breeder, handler and trainer, I take pride in my ability to read and engage with animals in the most positive ways possible. As I have shared my entire life with dogs (and cats), I understand the love behind each parent-animal relationship. In addition to my respect for animals, I consider myself to be very compassionate and responsible as part of my calm demeanor. I can jog with high-energy dogs or laze around with those who prefer to take it easy. I am comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, those with special needs, and every unique personality. It is a great pleasure to meet new four-legged friends. You can be sure that I will always treat your family as my own.

My cat, who doesn't suffer fools gladly, took to Emily within minutes of meeting her; and judging by the photos Emily took during each visit, and which she diligently sent to me each day, I know that my fussy feline was in good hands while I was away. Emily is attentive, reliable, personable, and professional. I would not hesitate in contacting Emily again for future pet-sitting service, or in recommending her to others.

Emily came over twice before her stay to ensure she knew where everything was and have any questions answered. She was at my house for 7 days and took fantastic care of my two dogs and two cats and left my house immaculate!! She communicated with me several times during her stay to assure me all was going well. Emily is very easy to work with, a true animal person and a truly nice person. I highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!!

My dog LOVES Emily! My girl is usually slow to warm up, but she runs right up to Emily with no hesitation. I feel super comfortable leaving my baby in Emily’s care. I highly recommend her.

Emily is my daughter and I may sound a bit biased, but I have a long background in dog and cat training and care. As a retired veterinary technician , dog trainer, dog breeder and competitor I do have a great deal of experience in these areas. Emily grew up learning to manage and care for the family dogs, cats, chickens, goats and a variety of other pets. Being kind to animals seemed to come naturally to her, even as a toddler she knew to handle and pet all our animals gently and with care. She is sensible and practical and has the presence of mind to handle a crisis. Her common sense is very valuable when caring for and dealing with animals, in the past she has cared for my breeding stock and various and sundry critters, I always knew they were in good hands. Emily does an excellent job and is conscientious in the way she approaches a task.
