Pet care experience
My dog Lulu and I love to hang out with other dogs. We often have sleepovers with Lulu's dog friends and we have a blast.. After purchasing a house, I realized that pet sitting would be a great way for Lulu make new friends and for me to do something I love. I also have used Rover sitters for Lulu, and was very happy with the process, so I would like to provide that kind of care for other pet owners. I'm a dog lover through and through, and have always had at least one dog my whole life. I live with my husband and Lulu, in a single-family stand alone house with fully fenced backyard. I work from home and will be present most of the day, keeping an eye on everyone. If your pet has special needs, that's no problem! I can accommodate most issues and have experience with giving pills and dealing with special feeding requirements. Lulu is our spayed 10 year old malinois/lab mix. She is very friendly, loves to play with other dogs, and welcomes them into her home gladly. She lived in a multiple dog house and loves when other dogs come to visit. I'm very easy to talk to, and have been told that I make people feel very welcome and comfortable. I've also had a variety of experiences in my life. Before moving to Austin, I created and ran all the water conservation education and outreach programs for an international water and wastewater company. In high school my sport was barrel racing! In college I studied sea lions in the Sea of Cortez and bears in eastern Arizona. I have sold 3 oil paintings and I sing. Please reach out if you have any questions about the care we can provide. We're excited to host your four-legged friend.
Reviews
Emily was terrific! We got daily photos and our Hank looked happy as ever . He loved playing in the yard and had lots of fun w their sweet dog. we will absolutely use her again.
I don't think Jake and Kai were all that thrilled to leave Emily's care after spending a week of boarding there! Emily gave me photos/updates during my trip to let me know how things were going, and the boys looked like they were having good adventures and loads of fun. I felt that they were getting the best possible care. It's 24 hours after I picked them up and they are still zonked out. It's so nice to know they are safe and not bored while I'm away.
Our pup had a great time with Emily while we were out of town. We got plenty of pictures and updates, and she was so kind and accommodating with our dog’s behavioral issues. She has a beautiful house and big yard. Would definitely recommend her to anyone for dog boarding!
Emily is outstanding!!! Lacy had the best time and made new friends. Felt like I left our baby with her favorite Aunt.

Information Emily W. would like to know about your pet
Before your dog comes to stay I want to know the following: Any food/toy/etc aggression. Age, size, and energy level. Dominance and personality quirks. Any special instructions.
A typical day
When your dog stays with us they can expect a lot of time for playing ball and romping in the backyard. We'll have lots of couch time. Your pup can enjoy a treat once a day. If it's hot, we have a kiddy-pool to splash in. We also will go for multi-dog walks in MaryMoore Searight Park or the neighborhood!
