Pet care experience

I have a wonderful 16 year-old cat that has been in my home for 4 years. I have experience with older cats and giving them medication. Additionally, I take care of a 2 year-old puppy when with my family. I am experienced in brushing pups and dog walking! I also have experience volunteering at cat shelters and making sure that the cats are taken care of both mentally and physically!

Emily did a fabulous job. She was highly communicative, never missed a walk, and came on time. She treated her dogs with respect and my neighbor said that she was wonderful. 5 out of 5 - completely trust her and will use her many times!

Emily was very communicative and shared lots of photos and details from her visits with Mario and Goose. Thanks for ensuring Mario took his medicine!

Information Emily V. would like to know about your pet

I would appreciate knowing about any special needs for your pup/cat, or if they require any sort of medication. It is also helpful to inform me of your pet's mannerisms or anything they particularly like/dislike before the visit!

A typical day

I love walking around Austin Park, especially because there are so many smells around there that the dogs can interact with! Tug-of-war is also a favorite activity of mine to do with dogs. As far as cats, I like using the stick toy with a feather. It always amazes me how much cats of all ages enjoy playing with this toy!
