Student with a love for dogs

Pet care experience

I have been surrounded my dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 large labrador retrievers (age 3 and 5) and do a lot to care for them. When my dad is out of town, I am in charge of walking them in the morning and at night, feeding them, and caring for them (letting them out at night, giving medicine, etc.). I am comfortable walking 2 large dogs for 1-2 miles a day. I am currently still in high school so my hours are between 3pm-7/8pm, although I am flexible during the day because I do have some breaks. I live in a single family home with my parents and 2 dogs. We are located in Old Town near several dog friendly parks and have a fenced in yard. My two male dogs are not neutered but are well trained and play well with others. I am great at following directions and giving constant updates to owners. I would always communicate my plan, route, and schedule with the dog owners for each job, even if it is recurring.

Emily took fantastic care of my cat this weekend. She was communicative and sent updates and photos that made me feel at ease. She clearly loves animals and I felt very comfortable leaving my best friend in her care. Thanks Emily!!!

Emily was such a life saver. She was able to watch Frankie last minute. She gave detailed reports, sent pictures and was so so great! Her parents were nice as well. I wish Emily lived in the city full time- she’s amazing!

I scheduled my first on demand walk and Emily was the perfect match for Jojo. She was responsive, on-time and took great care of him. I’ll definitely save her profile for future walks!

Emily was amazing. I was a bit all over the place due to last minute travel plans, but she checked-in with me ahead of and during the trip to make sure she could do everything she could for my cat. I definitely hope to work with Emily again when she is available.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

I love all types of dogs so I have no breed preferences. It would be nice to know if the dog has any fears, anxiety, or has special dietary needs. I would like to always be prepared before arriving as to care for the dog as well as possible.

A typical day

Living in the Old Town area, there are many different spots to allow the dogs to run around and exercise. I live by several parks, both fenced and unfenced and residential streets great for walking dogs. I will play with the dogs, throwing balls, running around, overall letting the dogs exert their energy.
