Vet student & devoted animal lover

Pet care experience

I am currently in my fourth year of vet school at Mississippi State. I have extensive experience taking care of pets and I am comfortable administering all medications, including insulin and fluids. I am also comfortable with any sort of strict diet your pet may need mixed up and even hand fed - sometimes our babies get nervous when mom and dad aren't around and some encouragement being hand fed is necessary. My family's animals are like children, so I completely understand and accommodate any requests you may feel are "silly" or "overboard". I guarantee you I have seen the request before, so no need to feel uncomfortable asking me. Caring for animals is what I am choosing to dedicate my life to so I would love the chance to love on and take care of your pets!

Emily is WONDERFUL! I have a hard time leaving my dogs with anyone, but she kept their routine and they loved her! Will be using her again!

We loved Emily! My dog and I both felt 100% comfortable with him in her care. She was great with communication and I could tell that she genuinely cared about his wellbeing. Will definitely use her again!

I would definitely recommend Emily! She kept me updated the entire time I was gone and helped me out with all my special requests.

I’m very flexible in being able to care for your pets however you normally care for them. That could be time out in the yard or long walks, you tell me!

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

Any quirks your pet has would be very helpful to know. Like if he or she has a certain routine or order in which things are done, or if they have a certain special potty word.

A typical day

I pretty much spend my entire day with sick animals so playing with healthy animals is always fun. I especially love baby talking them and playing fetch since my own rescue dog doesn’t know how to play with toys.
