Availability

Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times. I prioritize the pets I’m caring for, so I’m able to adjust my day around their needs — whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. I’m reliable, responsive, and able to accommodate last-minute or recurring bookings.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely — feeding schedules, medication needs, crate routines, potty breaks, and preferred playtime activities. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well-supervised, and I always take extra time for love, attention, and enrichment. I keep the home tidy, respect your space, and send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any medical conditions, medications, allergies, dietary restrictions, fears, anxieties, or behavioral quirks your pet may have. I also like to know how they interact with people, children, and other animals, as well as their favorite activities, treats, and comfort items. The more information you provide, the better I can ensure a safe, stress-free experience and give your pet the personalized care they deserve.

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I tailor the day to their energy level, personality, and routine. A typical day includes regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, and plenty of attention and affection. I enjoy interactive games, enrichment activities, and making sure pets get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. Most importantly, I strive to keep their routine as close as possible to what they’re used to so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away.

Pets

Where every pet gets VIP treatment.

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my entire life and have cared for just about every kind of pet you can imagine — dogs, cats, bunnies, chinchillas, birds, and more. Animals have always been a huge part of my home and my heart. I’m comfortable with all personalities, all sizes, and all needs. Your pet will be treated like family, because that’s the only way I know how to care for them.
