Pet care experience

Active dog sitter!

What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep commitment to treating every dog like family. My dog isn't just a pet; he's my child, and if you choose to board your dog with me, they will receive the same level of love and care. I have over 12 years of experience in pet sitting and caring for dogs, and have had my own for about 10 years. What truly distinguishes me is the amount of activity and attention I provide. My dog enjoys at least three activities a day—ranging from walks and swims in the greenbelt to ice cream dates. When I care for other dogs, they also get the same level of fun and engagement. Whether it's a day filled with outdoor adventures, socializing, or just lounging with plenty of cuddles, I ensure each dog feels loved, safe, and well-exercised.

Achilles had a great time with Emma, and she was very communicative and flexible!

Emma watched my dogs for the first time last week, and overall, I was really happy with the experience! She was flexible with pickup and drop-off times, sent lots of pictures and updates, and made sure the dogs got plenty of exercise. She went the extra mile taking care of Twiggy, my brand new adoptee. We can't wait to go back.

We would give Camp Emma TEN stars. The dogs were happily and carefully engaged. They even came home with improved skills. I received a lot of pictures from Emma!

Emma was wonderful with Meeko! I really appreciated the photo and video updates throughout the day—they gave me peace of mind and made it so nice to see how he was doing. Emma was also so kind, attentive, and easygoing throughout the stay. I’d definitely trust her with Meeko again!

Emma did a fantastic job taking care of my energetic dog, Willow. Judging by the pictures, they took what seemed like 100 walks in four days, and playtime with other dogs never ended until bedtime. I’ll be using Emma Austin for future trips and doggy day care too!

Schedule

I have the ability to work from home every day, and I typically do because I dislike leaving my dog alone. This allows me to spend quality time with him, including taking him for walks during the middle of the day. On the rare occasion that I need to go into the office, I have a fenced-in backyard and a doggy door, so the dogs are free to relieve themselves while I'm away.

Safety, trust & environment

I offer a safe and comfortable environment for pets in my home, with a fenced-in yard where they can play and explore. I also have a 10-year-old sweet dog who will keep your pet company and make them feel at ease. If you prefer, I'm happy to crate your dog for rest or bedtime, as long as you provide the crate. My goal is to ensure your pet feels relaxed, secure, and loved while in my care.

Pets

A typical day

On a typical weekday, after I feed my dog in the morning, we go on a 30-minute walk. He then enjoys some homemade ice cream before taking a nap. Around lunchtime, he either gets another walk (in the winter) or spends time at the greenbelt (in the summer). After work, we go for an off-leash walk around the Violet Crown Trail. If your dog is joining us, I'm happy to put them on a leash to ensure their safety and comfort.
