About Emma B.
Communication
Dog skills
Cat skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to do a full walkthrough of your pet’s routine—including a walk if possible—to help keep things familiar and reduce any stress while you’re gone. I’m happy to provide photos, videos, and regular check-ins if you’d like—just let me know! Communication is key, so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or special requests.
Information Emma B. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for your pet, I like to learn all about their routine and personality so I can keep them happy and comfortable. Please let me know about any special needs, medications, or quirks, as well as how they interact with other pets, animals, and people (for my safety and theirs)! I also prefer to schedule a quick walk-through or meet-and-greet before our first visit — it helps me get acquainted with walking routes and makes sure that they feel comfortable with me from the start!
A typical day
I love keeping pets happy and engaged! For dogs, I enjoy going on long walks, playing outside, and spending time on training for mental engagement. Cats get plenty of playtime and cozy cuddle sessions if they’re up for it. I also make sure small pets have safe enrichment time, like foraging treats or exploring new toys. No matter the pet, I focus on fun, comfort, and activities that match their personality and energy level.

Engaging, experienced animal lover!
Pet care experience
Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds — from energetic puppies to senior dogs and cats. I have hands-on experience with pets who have special medical needs, high-energy dogs who love long walks, and those who need a little extra time to feel comfortable. I recently moved away from my family dogs, but I’ve always been dedicated to their routine — two walks a day, usually 30 minutes to an hour each. In addition, I have extensive experience with exotic pets and rodents, so I’m no stranger to a more involved routine. Whether it’s an energetic play session, quiet cuddle time, or sticking to a specific feeding or medication schedule, I’m committed to making every pet feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away.

Reviews
Emma was fab! Timely, great communicator, and wonderful with my two cats. My home was also in great shape when I returned! Will def book again with Emma.

Emma was so great with our sweet, little old kitty. Fantastic!!

Emma is everything you could ask for in a caretaker. Wonderful communication, happy pet, clean home upon return. Wish we’d have found her sooner and will definitely hire her again!


Emma was great with my two cats! She gave them lots of play time and affection. She was also a good house sitter and left the place clean. She communicated well and was very responsive. She went above and beyond my expectations!
