I love your furbabies as my own!
Pet care experience
Hi there! I am a recent nursing school graduate looking for some extra income during the summer before starting my first job as a registered nurse! I’ve always had animals growing up especially dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with walking, bathing, feeding, giving medications, and anything your pet needs.
Reviews
Emily house sat for our dog Bodhi over the Thanksgiving holiday, with little booking notice. She was very friendly and a good communicator. We received consistent updates and photos of our dog, and the house was spotless when we got home. 10/10 would recommend booking Emily.
Emily has watched my two dogs in the past while my husband and I have gone on vacation. She does a wonderful job with checking in, and playing with them as they can be a bit much sometimes. She’s always been available last minute and my two love her so much!
I’m really torn about writing this review. I had such high hopes after meeting Emily in person that she would be a great fit for my pups. I booked her for overnight and house sitting. Things started off rough and she was almost three hours late getting to the house. She stayed for an hour then left for another 8 hours. She didn’t follow the instructions I left to keep my pups on their daily routine while I was gone. Instead of closing the doggy for at night like I asked, she left it open and took her time getting to the pups in the morning (this the doggy door being left open). She might have gone outside and played with the pups once or twice despite the instructions and request to play daily to keep the puppy energy balanced. And on the day she left, she departed 3 hours earlier than we agreed, stating she had school. When I came home, I found things torn up in the backyard that were in the house when I left. This, further confirming her lack of interaction with the pups. I really wanted to give her a positive review. I really wanted her to work out. I’m sad to say it didn’t not and I will not be using her again.
About Emily T.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat everyone’s home with respect, and when it comes to animals, it is important to check and make sure the environment is safe for them. Always checking if fences/gates are closed, always leaving the home in the same or better condition than when I arrived, and insuring that your home is safe and comfortable for your animals.
Information Emily T. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or any behavioral issues that you would think is important to know, especially separation anxiety. If your animal(s) are not okay with a young child (age 5) please let me know in advance as in most circumstances, I can arrange childcare for her.
A typical day
I love going and playing outside. There are quite a few walking trails near my house that we love to go on, it also has a nice sized dog park. I love getting pup cups from Starbucks as a special treat, and I love taking silly pictures of animals so hope you don’t mind!
