Highlights
Pet care experience
Owned by a Cat, Raised by Dogs
I'm a Cat parent to a senior Tortie, and grew up with an Australian Shepheard, Springer Spaniel, and a Mutt. I've been caring for neighborhood cats, dogs, snakes, rabbits, chinchillas, geckos, and the occasional bird for more than 20 years. I've taken 2 dogs through obedience training, and I'm happy to follow your lead to facilitate any training goals. (It makes my day too when they get it right!) I have experience giving medication in liquid and pill form to cats and dogs - and mask-style inhalers to cats. I'd also be comfortable administering other medication with some guidance. Very comfortable with larger energetic dogs who want to want to tug along a high speed walk, but just as happy to go slow for those who want to stop and smell every rose. I'm a lifelong cat lover and show that love through following your cat's cues. I give head pats, scratches, am great with a teaser wand but am happy to bring a book and just hang out for those looking to build trust with some quiet companionship.

Safety, trust & environment
I will take good care of your pet and be respectful of your space while you're away. I know from my own pet how reassuring it is to get a few photos, and I'm always happy to send them along :)
Ratings and reviews
Another great time with Emily! Ciggy was happy, fed and loved. I feel at peace leaving him with her!!
Thanks for taking such good care of Enzo!
Second time booking with Emily, she is very communicative and kind. I can tell from the photos and when I come home that my kitten is well taken care of and has bonded to her. I have absolutely no worries when I’m away!
Another great visit from Emily ! She is reliable and easy to work with. I look forward to booking her service again
Emily always takes such great care of our kitties! She’s organized, communicative, and super friendly and warm.
Super grateful for Emily taking Fizz out twice in one day! I know he loved getting his walks in with her and I appreciated the updates!
