Pet care experience

Your pet will be treated like mine

I’m a dog mom and have always had dogs growing up. I tend to hover when we go for walks or at the park just because I’m protective. I will protect the babies at all cost. I know more signs to look for and no dog of any size or temperament will scare me away. They all deserve love

Emily was great!! We were gone for 8 days and she stayed at our house and took amazing care of our dog, Zoey, our cat, Lewis, and our home. She was extremely respectful, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. We received regular updates while we were away, and she made sure Zoey got her walks and plenty of attention. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing both of our pets were in good hands. When we got home, the house was exactly how we left it and Zoey and Lewis were both happy and well cared for. We honestly have no complaints whatsoever and would absolutely trust Emily to stay in our home and watch them again. Highly recommend her!

Emily took great care of Junie and our home while we were away. She was patient and wonderful with her reactivity. We would definitely book Emily again!

Emily does a great job with Atti! We always come home to a house in at least -if not better- shape then when we left it. Atti boy is good and tuckered out from walks and loves.

Emily was great with Atticus! She left the house in impeccable order, communicated consistently and even cleaned up dog vomit like it was no big deal! We would love to book with Emily again!

Schedule

I currently work a typical 10-5 job during the week and some hours on the weekend. But I’ll always make sure your pet is taken care of before work and I do get breaks and can let them during that time.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Emily can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your dog has any allergies, isn’t very social with other dogs, doesn’t like other human interactions or if they need any meds to make sure I give them the care they need.
