Safety, trust & environment

I’m comfortable within any space I may need to enter to come and walk/care for your animals. Apartments, condos, etc. I’ve used access codes, keys, and all things. I will always try to find a park, or nice path nearby, whatever’s available and the best option for your animal!

Pet care experience

I previously worked for about a year at a dog-walking company in MD, tasked daily to walk, feeding, and care for various types of dogs daily. I have experience with just about any type of dog; size, temperament, age, specialty needs, etc. Looking forward to meeting your animal and giving the best possible care!

Emily was great! She’s attentive and took our nearly blind dog on nice long walks.

I’m very grateful for Emily! She was able to squeeze us in as a regular walker and she is very caring with my Maggie. Thank you, Emily!

Emily is such a joy to work with! My pup and I are both grateful for her thoughtfulness and care. She’s quick to communicate and brings an ease to any pet parent who has nerves about finding a trusted person to care for their fur family member! I would highly recommend!
