Vet Tech Pup Sitter
Pet care experience
I work with dogs and cats on a day to day basis! I’m a vet tech at a clinic here in Charlotte! When I’m not taking care of fur babies at work, I’m taking care of my 3 fur babies at home! I have a geriatric dog with cancer, so she needs lot of attention. Which means that I’m very skilled in taking proper care of your senior pups!
Reviews
Emily cares for animals immensely and treats every animal as if it were her own. She gives the highest quality care to her pets at home and any animal around her. She is always the first person to jump in when an animal is in need and has a huge heart for the work that she does. You will never have to wonder if your baby is being cared for if it’s in Emily’s hands, and I would trust her with any of my babies.
I am a veterinarian and Emily is my best technician. She is keen to both cats and dogs and how they are feeling and knows how to resolve conflict and improve comfort of her patients. She always puts the animal first. If her work experience is insufficient, she also has 2 pet cats and 2 pet dogs at home, including 1 dog that has severe arthritis and is undergoing chemotherapy for lymphoma currently. She took in Dahlia, a cat surrendered to our clinic, and had her at home for a while. This is a senior cat with diabetes, requiring insulin. Emily had the ability to treat her and give her the home she needed, but also the emotional intelligence to recognize her life was not quite optimized in Emily's home, thus causing her to seek and find other accommodations. It would be difficult to imagine a better candidate than Emily.
I have know Emily for a while (both professionally and personally) and she is one of the most compassionate animal lovers I have ever met! I would not hesitate to hire her to watch any of my pets at any time. She is trustworthy and friendly!

Safety, trust & environment
My environment is very dog friendly. My 2 pups love other (nice) dogs, and my cat are fine with dogs! I have a 3 story house with baby gates all over. So if your dog is not cat friendly. My cats and your dog will be safe. But I would rather have a dog that is okay with cats! I can do house sitting by request! Again, very skilled at medicating of all types! I was helping take care of a senior cat with diabetes, so I was giving her insulin twice a day. I have a senior dog that takes multiple medications twice a day. I can give injections and oral medications safely and confidently.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know all important information about your pup before hand. Just so I can accommodate accordingly. Nothing is too complicated for me!
A typical day
I love to start my morning with quality time with my fur babies before I go to work. Playing in the living room, and all sorts of lovin’! If I make scrambled eggs for breakfast, everyone gets a bite. Walks during the evening is a must. Going on walks around the different parks surrounding Lake Norman is one of my favorite things to do.

Availability
I currently work full time, off on Wednesdays and weekends. My schedule during the day is flexible, I can go home to let the dogs out on my 1 hour lunch break. Longer walks in the morning and at night are by request! I have a greenway right next to my house. Playtime is obviously a given. I have a giant toy basket in my living room, but I know some pups have their special toys. I would like every animal that stays with me to be as comfortable as possible! If you have an energetic pup, we will go on walks and adventures! If you have a couch potato, we will have movie nights and snuggles!
