Emily was wonderful to work with from start to finish - easy to book, communicative, and incredibly reassuring. Knowing that she has veterinary technician experience and is currently training to become a veterinarian gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, our dogs absolutely loved her. It was clear they felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, and seeing them each go over to say goodbye spoke volumes. We came home to happy pets and a well-cared-for home, and we would happily recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trusted pet and house sitter.

Emily stayed with our boys over the weekend of 6/5 and she was so great! The boys were very happy when we came home and we were happy to know they were well taken care of. She had great communication, and was so sweet she even stripped the bed when she left for the weekend. Thank you Emily!

Emily was great taking care of our cats. They needed to be checked on twice a day at specific times due to dietary and medical needs. She was on time each day which relieved a lot of anxiety we had leaving them. Thank You Emily
