Run/Walk/Play/Love!

Pet care experience

I am a responsible educator and animal lover with lots of pet-sitting and dog walking experience. As a marathon runner and outdoor enthusiast, I can give your active dog the exercise they need. That said, I also have a soft spot for older dogs who just need some extra love. I currently work from home part-time (I'm gone for about 5 hours, 4 days a week), and my husband works from home full-time, so we have flexible availability and can ensure your pet will get plenty of attention. We live in a spacious, pet-friendly townhouse with a large grassy courtyard and close proximity to walking paths. I am a very organized, punctual, and communicative person (it comes with being a teacher!) so you can be assured that I'll be dependable and give you a stress-free experience. I can't wait to meet your pup!

Emily was great. Initial meet and greet, quick feedback, updates/photos when we were away. Thanks for taking care of Red!

Emily is great! As soon as my dog and I met her, we both felt comfortable and at ease. She sent me an update each day, giving me peace of mind that all was well with my pup. She always communicated promptly and was very accommodating when I had to change my trip dates. I would absolutely book with her again! Thanks so much Emily!

We had a great experience boarding our dog with Emily. Very easy communication, recieved daily updates, and our dog seemed comfortable during his stay.

Received updates and pictures everyday from Emily. Lola is a special dog with lots of quirks and high energy. Emily took Lola on long walks which she thoroughly enjoyed.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

To best care for your pup, I appreciate knowing the following: -Their daily routine (meal times, walks, wake-up/bedtime) -Any potential triggers (other dogs, bikes, etc) -Any medications, special needs, or health conditions -Anything they might get into in the house or other things to look out for

A typical day

I've lived in the Boulder area for over a decade, so I know most of the best walking routes, parks, and pup-friendly hikes. I also can't wait to take your dog on a run with me!

Between my husband's and my work schedule, one of us is almost always home. We're not party animals, so we'll be home with your pet on the weekends as well. We love to take long walks in the mornings and afternoons with our doggie visitors, and we always make sure to give dogs a chance to get out for a stroll/potty break every few hours. NOTE: We typically do not accept single-night bookings, as it's too much back and forth for our preferences. Thanks for understanding.
