Fur baby's home away from home!!
Pet care experience
We are passionate about dogs and have a sweet and kind 4 year old 40lb goldendoodle named Maui who loves to play! I understand how hard it is to leave your dogs when you are away and are the type of people who will take good care of your fur baby. I listen to what your dog needs and do my best to make sure they are comfortable and happy. I am big on praise, provide water for the dogs at all times, and reward with daily beef liver treats from Trader Joe's, peanut butter or coconut oil smeared bone treats, and organic chicken broth to yummify their meals (with your permission). If separation is hard for your pup, we give your dog lots of love and play relaxing dog music to help ease them into their new surroundings. I work from home and will be with them the entire day, provide lots of exercise with 4 walks a day, and around half an hour of play time or fetching in the big yard. There are also many fun toys to play with indoors with my happy girl, Maui. I will send you lots of pictures, videos, and updates to let you know how your pup is doing because it is important to me that you smile at the end of the day knowing that your pup is having fun on vacation in a safe and loving home! I want you to know that pups are not crated at home unless I have to go in for a meeting or run errands when no one is home, in which case they will never be left at home for more than a few hours. This is because your dog's safety is my #1 responsibility. A clever pup's curiosity when they are left alone in a new environment is a risky thing and I care a lot about the pups!! Fur Baby's Vacation Schedule: 8:00am: 30 min walk. 8:30am: beef liver treat with breakfast. 12:00pm: 30min fetch/play in a large fenced yard. 12:30pm: peanut butter bone treat! 4:00pm: 30min walk/play. 4:30pm: beef liver treat with dinner. 8:00pm: 15 min walk. 8:15pm: coconut oil bone treat! 11:00pm: 5min walk/potty break. 11:30pm: scavenger hunt around the house with tinny bits of yummy cheese before bed! I give a lot of praise, ear scratches, and tummy rubs to let them know that they are wonderful and amazing pups!! They always feel loved and get pampered with a complementary bath and brush out when they are ready to go home. If you think we may be a good home for your pup's vacation, then we hope we will get to meet you and your fur baby soon! :)
Reviews
Emily took terrific care of our Ace while we were on vacation. She had him on a great schedule of walks, playtime, and loving attention and she texted daily photos and updates. Ace came home very well- adjusted and happy. Emily's dog, Maui, is a sweetheart, and a gracious dog hostess! Ace looks forward to the next time he can be so pampered while we are gone.
Emily is the best. Our little dog had the best vacation. She sent of pictures of our dog going on walks and Jax even got a fun trip to Tahoe. I highly recommend Emily if you are looking for someone to love your dog while you are out of town. Jax was in great company with Emily's dog Maui.
Really wonderful experience for our dogs and for us! Emily was very kind and accommodating! We have always boarded our dogs at a boarding facility, and were hesitant to try Rover, but we could not be happier that we did. Our dogs had a great time, and Emily sent us pictures and updates throughout their stay. Thank you so much!! We look forward to having our dogs stay with you again!
We left our two pups, Teddy and Winston, with Emily for while we were out of town for 4 days. Emily was friendly, caring and very accommodating to our care instructions and right away we felt our dogs were in great hands. Emily was always responsive and sent daily updates on how our pups were doing and plenty of adorable pictures and videos! Teddy and Winston had so much fun exploring and chasing each other in the yard and playing with their new friend Maui. We are glad to have found such a great sitter and we would definitely love to have Emily watch our dogs again.

We are happy that all of our amazing guests are able to return home as healthy pups at the end of their stay. We take great care to ensure a safe and fun vacation by confirming vaccination records and routine flea treatments are up to date for every guest. During our meet and greet I will learn more about your pup's daily routine and if he/she has any quirks so that I can avoid exposing them to things that may upset them during their stay. It is important to me that both parents and fur babies are happy and able to enjoy the best vacation possible!! Thank you for choosing our home for your pup's vacation destination!
A typical day
The dogs favorite thing to do here is to play in the huge fenced in grassy lawn next to my house. I have a chuckit that I bring with us and water for when they get thirsty. Sometimes they play a game of chase weaving in and out of the bushes using it like an obstacle course. Other times someone will find a stick and they start a game of tug. Pup's also love going on our long walk of the day to the neighborhood next to us where there are a lot of trees and a small creek that flows along a paved path. It always smells so good here and the pups love to sniff around because there are a lot of flowers and bushes for them to explore along the path.
