Vet assistant student
Pet care experience
Hello my name is Emily, I am 21 years old with my own transportation and I attend online college to become a veterinary assistant and I will continue the journey to becoming a veterinarian. Growing up I had 5 dachshunds and 2 rescue pits (at the same time, it was the best 16 years of my life) some had to be kept separate due to fighting, so I am knowledgeable in keeping animals apart if necessary. I currently have 1 dog (a Japanese chin), 2 cats, and 2 turtles (yellow-belly and a red eared slider) in case you're seeking experienced pet care for someone who has different care requirements than dogs/cats. I've watched my relatives pets since I was 12 & have had multiple jobs involving pet care. I have 15 non family related clients so far that can offer references to my credibility if desired! I am very excited to explore different platforms seeking clients to expand my business as I have made this a full time experience while I am in school. I would prefer multiple daily check ins than providing overnight stays, the pets are always welcome in my home. I only take one family of pets at a time (max amount of pets from one family is 3 unless some are kept in enclosures) I also keep my pets separate at all times to ensure that there are no mishaps. My rates are as follow ❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️ Overnight care-$60 a night (5+ nightly stays are discounted) Daily check ins •$30 for 1 visit daily •$40 for 2 visits daily •$50 for 3x or more visits daily (7+ days of pet care are discounted) (I have no problem coming more than 3x a day free of extra charge, pls just let me know what you would prefer) Walking •$25 for 30 mins •$40 for an hour I have no problem just walking around the neighborhood but I do love to take them to the park as well. Drive time is not included Cosmetic -baths •$20 -nail trims •$20 -nail trim/bath combo •$30 By the hour stays in your home to dog sit •$20 an hour (3 hours+ are discounted) Doggy sitting in my home •$20 for 3 hours or less -$10 extra per dog after 1 -$5 every hour after 3 hours -in home sitting daily/semi daily/frequently will be discounted and I am willing to set up a payment plan.
Reviews
Emily has been the only dog sitter for me for about the last nine months. She has done both overnight stays and drop ins. We have two Doberman, a German Shepherd and a Cairn Terrier. Two of our dogs cannot be in the same place together or they will fight, Emily is vigilant about adhering to our dogs schedule and when to swap them in pairs to avoid any interaction. I used to worry about the care provided for my dogs when I would be gone over the weekends, although they are happy to see me when I get home, they are at home with Emily while I am gone, no separation anxiety. She takes wonderful care and they have accepted her as one of their own ❤️❤️❤️
So I am one of “those pet moms” ; I worry, I have nanny cams, I miss my pets when I’m gone. It’s hard for me to leave my pets with anyone at all. However when I met Emily all of those worries lessened. She is a hard worker and she truly loves animals. She has experience with all species and temperaments. My pups are a challenge -they have to be gated from one another and they are spiked beyond logic and reason. Emily took care of them just as I would ! She text me often so I wouldn’t worry and she Got the trust of my my challenging rescue girl. Emily impressed me! She even acted like all of my crazy requests were normal-lol! I will definitely trust her and use her regularly!
Emily comes over to my house from time to time to do a nail trim for our older pocket beagle. She handles him very well which can be difficult as he has a disc issue and picking him up or holding him certain ways can hurt him. She provides great care and in home service!
Emily has been my dog sitter for 5 years, my pack at one time was 5 dachshunds and 2 pitty mixes. Emily feed and kept the two pity’s separate from each other, she sent pics and short video to let me see my fur babies. I will continue to use her in the future. The last time she worked for me was a check in on 1 dog and everything went well. Thank you Emily
About Emily Y.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment, I have 1 dog, 2 cats, and 2 turtles. If I am caring for your pet in my own home I keep my pets upstairs with a gate and allow your pets to have the living room/dining room and kitchen area as their own and continue their normal schedule. If caring for pets in your home I follow the guidelines given to me on the pet care.

Information Emily Y. would like to know about your pet
It would be important for me to know any and all medical history, feeding instructions including times and how much, and how they behave around other animals.
A typical day
While I am pet sitting I enjoy taking them outside to play, go on walks, or even just sit on the couch and watch a show if that’s what they prefer.

Pet care fits into my schedule very well! I am putting the time into it the way I would a full time job while I am in school.
