Information Emma A. would like to know about your pet

If your animal has any special needs that have to be adapted to such as reactive or needing more time outside, special foods, medicines, ect… I am very easy going and would love to take care of your baby how you take care of your baby.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your animals mind! Games, walks around the neighborhood or even, pets!! Whatever they would most prefer. We (me and your pet) will get out and have a great time!

Emma was amazing! She came before to meet with me and Rosie so that we were both comfortable and Rosemary wouldn’t just see her as a stranger. She came on time and walked my girl over a mile!

Emma took great care of Strider and I could tell he felt right at home at her place. Plus he loved playing with her sweet pups!

One of my cats got injured right before a trip out of town, and Emma boarded him at her house while we were away. She gave him his medicine twice a day and sent pictures and information every day. She spent time cuddling him and he even got to make a little doggy friend. I wasn't sure how my cat would do around the other animals, so Emma was very thoughtful about how and who she introduced him to, and made sure he had his own private space so he could feel comfortable. She even got him some treats :)
