Availability

I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which means I can give your pet plenty of time, attention, and consistency. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits on both weekdays and weekends, with flexible timing to fit your pet’s routine. Since I’m not balancing another job, I’m able to fully prioritize your pet and make sure they feel cared for, comfortable, and never rushed.

Safety, trust & environment

I offer flexible care depending on what your pet is most comfortable with. I have a large, fully fenced yard available if your dog enjoys being outside and is comfortable spending time with my very friendly dog. If your pup prefers one-on-one care or staying in their own space, I’m more than happy to come to your home, follow your routine closely, and be respectful of your space. I will also take your dog on walks in familiar areas you’re comfortable with. My priority is always creating a safe, low-stress, and positive experience tailored to your pet’s needs.

Information Emily Y. would like to know about your pet

I love detailed instruction. You let me know exactly what will benefit your dog the most during my time with them, and I will make sure they get it. If there are any special requests or if your dog has any special care, I’m happy to provide that!

A typical day

I’m happy to take your dog on a nice, long walk wherever you are comfortable with, whether that’s in your neighborhood or a nice, safe trail nearby. If your dog isn’t great on a leash but still needs company and stimulation, I’d love to play games with them in your yard or mine, or even help them lock in that new trick they’re learning! I understand that mental stimulation is just as important as physical. You let me know what your dog needs most and I will provide that for them!

Pet care experience

I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years and have cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m attentive, patient, and good at reading each dog’s energy and needs. I also have a very friendly, well-socialized dog of my own. If your pup enjoys having company on walks, she’s happy to join! If your dog prefers solo attention, I completely respect that and will always prioritize what makes your pet most comfortable. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and stress-free experience every time.

Emily was amazing with my brood. I had just moved to Spokane, so my cats and dogs were already feeling unsettled, when I had to go out of town for work. Emily managed to gain their trust in no time. She is professional, kind and communicative.

Emily is an exceptional sitter. She made this anxious dog dad feel so much better. My boys absolutely loved their time with Emily. 10/10 recommend!

Emily is great with both of my dogs. I have a miniature Labradoodle with allergies and Emily takes excellent care of making sure she stays happy and healthy while I’m away. I also have a pitbull/blue healer reactive 1 year old dog and she is beyond patient and accommodating in setting him up for success! When she first started caring for our animals, we had a cat that she would love on, keep her box clean, and even occasionally give her necessary medication. She goes above and beyond in her animal care and loves them all like her own. She sends fun pictures and updates as well.

Best dog sitter and walker I’ve ever had. Emily takes true care in each of my pups and loves them like her own. She goes above and beyond when staying at my home to care for them. Making sure that not only are they happy and worn out when I return, but leaves my home in perfect condition. Emily even took the time during our meet and greet to walk through a couple of the training drills my reactive dog is working on so she could intentionally support his growth during their time together. She is personable, patient, and flexible. Passionate about dogs and quick to giggle at good ol’ dog humor. I cannot say enough good things. My pups are lucky to have her taking care of them.
