Availability

I work out of the house on Mondays, but otherwise work from the house, so Mondays would be the only day the dog would be in my house without supervision. I do have different sized crates if the dog is crate trained and you would prefer they are left in there during the day. After work, I take the dogs on a walk and then we play with toys before bed.

Information Emily W. would like to know about your pet

One of my dogs has seizures and requires twice daily medication, so I am very practiced with special needs dogs and dogs requiring oral medication. I do have a six year old son who is very good with dogs, but your dog needs to be good with kids too. My son will not provide care for your dog, but will be in the house during the stay.

A typical day

Your dog will get to spend time playing with our two energetic dogs. Then I will take them on a daily walk and play with toys. Finally cuddle up in bed to sleep!

Pet care experience

I have owned dogs and cats my entire life, and will continue to do so the rest of my life. I have never met a dog I didn’t like and I would love to treat your pup like my own! I will send at least one photo update every day your pup is with me. Note: For the safety and privacy of our family and pets, we do not invite pet owners into our home at any time before or during the pet’s stay.

Emily always treats my dogs like one of her own. They get all excited when I pull into her driveway.
