Information Emily T. would like to know about your pet

We would love to know a little more about your dog’s personality and especially what the enjoy and love doing (including favorite scratch spot). We also would like to know if your pet has any dislikes, whether it be certain kinds of dogs, or noises things like that. Also we would love to take your dog to some fun places, so please let us know if they have issues in cars or you would rather them not go in the car with us!

A typical day

We love going to castle island in Southie to walk and play on the grass. On a typical day we like to take dogs on 4-5 walks! I love to go on walks with dogs and really let them have their time to explore on their own, meaning go at their own pace and stop to sniff here and there, I love taking my dogs near the ocean as it is more calming for them.

Pet care experience

Hey there! I'm Emily I live in South Boston with my boyfriend. We both love dogs and are very active! Our apartment is spacious with lots of space to play! We love sitting dogs whether it is for the day while we work from home or for overnight stays! We love going for walks so we will take your pup on plenty while they stay with us! We love dogs of all sizes and energy levels. We live on the third floor so please let us know if stairs are an issue! A little more about us: Emily: I have been a dog lover ever since I can remember. I grew up having two dogs, a Portuguese water dog and a Terrier mix. My family now has a Bernadoodle at home as well! Will: My family has had dogs since I was born! We had a husky, then a golden doodle, and now a cava-golden doodle mix! Having dogs around to play with and walk with has always been a big part of my life! Now that we live in the city we would love the opportunity meet some new pals and host some furry friends in our apartment!

Emily did another great job watching my dog Ginny today! She takes such good care of her and gives us lots of updates and pictures. Thankful to have found a dog lover in the neighborhood to watch Ginny when we’re in a pinch.

Emily did a great job watching my dog for the day while I went into the office! Thankful to have a flexible sitter in the neighbor to care for her.
