Pet care experience
I had a dog my entire childhood, and then spent many years watching various dogs for extended periods of time. After going home for the holidays and spending a lot of time with all the dogs there, I realized it's something I really miss. I bond with almost any dog and care for other dogs like they are my own. I can take your dog on a walk or a run, play with them in the park, or even take them to the dog beach (in the summer of course). Whenever I see a dog, it instantly brightens my day, but it doesn't happen nearly enough. I'm hoping with this service, I'll be able to help you and your dog so they aren't stuck inside all day while also bringing a little brightness and fun to my days.
Reviews
Emily is very attentive, reads directions, and gives the dogs the exercise they need!!
Emily is a natural with dogs. She grew up with dogs in her home and bonds with them quickly. She loves taking dogs for walks and does so responsibly. She also lived with a dog during her college years since one of her roommates had a dog whom Emily helped take care of regularly. Emily has always helped neighbors with their dogs when they were away. Emily's love for animals is evident and she would make a wonderful, loving dog caregiver.
If you were to look up the phrase dog lover in the dictionary, I guarantee Emily’s picture would be there. She’s grown up with dogs, had a dog throughout college, and was the go-to dog sitter for the neighbors whenever they were out of town. I wouldn’t doubt for a second that my dog was safe if he was in her care.
For many years, Emily has cared for our two dogs (and cat) for up to a week at a time. She is always accessible and professional. One of our dogs is rather needy, an old irish setter with incontinence problems and bad hips. Emily has no problem lifting her up stairs as well as giving daily oral medications. She follows instructions, and is dependable and dog-savy. We never worry about our dogs when we go out of town with Emily's help and our dogs love her. Would highly recommend Emily for any kind of dog care!
