A typical day
What to Expect During a Visit: Since I specialize in drop-ins, my schedule is focused on maximizing our one-on-one time. Here is what a typical visit looks like: - Arrival & Greeting: I arrive at your home and follow your entry instructions. I greet your pet with a calm, steady energy which essential for keeping puppies and high energy dogs settled. - Active Engagement: We head out for a walk or backyard playtime. For puppies, I prioritize consistent potty breaks and can reinforce the basic cues (like sit or wait) that they are currently learning. - Refresh & Reset: Once back inside, I’ll refresh water bowls, provide meals or treats as requested, and ensure your pet is relaxed and comfortable before I head out. - The Pupdate: Before I leave, I’ll send you a detailed report and photos of our visit so you have total peace of mind.

Protocol Driven Pet Care 🐾
Pet care experience
Hi there! I’m Emily and I can’t wait to meet your furry family members. I know how important it is to find someone reliable who treats your pets like their own. Whether it’s a high energy trek around the park or a cozy afternoon of belly rubs, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away ❤️ I’ve spent my entire life around animals of all shapes and sizes, a passion that started with my family’s decades long legacy of breeding and training Labrador Retrievers. Growing up in that environment gave me a deep, intuitive understanding of dog behavior and a special knack for working with puppies. While I am not a certified trainer, I am an expert at reinforcing the structure and house rules you already have in place, ensuring your pet stays on the right track during our time together. That lifetime of experience extends to all pets, from curious youngsters to gentle seniors who just need a little extra patience. Having worked professionally in boarding kennels as well, I understand the language and temperaments of different breeds and can guarantee your fur baby will be treated with the highest level of care and attention.

Reviews

Emily was our first Rover that we used since we adopted our kitty. She was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly. She sent very cute pictures of our kitty as well as followed all directions we gave while we were gone. We would definitely use her again in the future!

Emily was fantastic! She had excellent communications, was extremely punctual and I was very comfortable with her taking care of Goober. Even better Goober absolutely loves her!!


Excellent every time, always! Our pups love your walks!

Emily was very nice and flexible with my requests. She was timely and sent great photos of my dog. I feel comfortable with her for our future bookings. She will be my go-to sitter.
