Pet care experience

lots of love, attention and fur

I have always had dogs and cats in my life, both in my home but also taking care of my families animals when they are out of town or working. As long as your baby will get along with mine they are welcome here! I am currently a stay at home mom to two little boys, two dogs and a cat. I have a schedule around the kids but it’s flexible and changing. I have a large fenced in back yard, as well as a dog run. I have a husky mix, a chiweenie, and a cat to keep your dog or cat company. Both of my dogs are kennel trained and friendly with other animals. I also have two young boys so we are very active with a lot of play time. I will only take pets that are comfortable( and socialized) with small kids, cats and dogs. I want to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable during your pets stay.

Emily and her family were absolutely wonderful with Mr. Elwood. She was incredibly communicative, providing daily photos and status updates that kept my mind at ease. When Mr. Elwood faced some minor challenges, Emily handled them with grace and expertise, ensuring he remained safe and happy throughout. I’m so grateful for their support during my business travels. Highly recommended!

Emily was easy to communicate and schedule with. I didn't get many updates unless I asked, but she was responsive when I reached out.

If I could give Emily a 10/10 I absolutely would! This was my first time ever leaving our pup somewhere overnight but my little guy was in good hands. Emily is professional and kind and made our very neurotic chihuahua feel right at home. Thank you such much for being a wonderful sitter Emily!

Absolutely fabulous! Emily took on our cat so that we could attend our daughter’s wedding. Emily kept us posted about how our cat was doing and took care of everything. An absolute lifesaver! Thank you Emily :)

Murphy stayed with Emily for a few days while we were out of town. She took great care of him - we really appreciate it! Thanks for watching our little buddy.

Schedule

I’m currently a stay at home mom and I’m home most of the day. I have two dogs, two boys and cat. My only real schedule constraint is pick up and drop off for my kids. Your pets will get a lot of attention, play and walks at my house. We’re very active and if possible I will take the dogs with me on any outings or errands I run throughout their stay.
