Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced pet walker and sitter
I absolutely love all animals! I am also very good at keeping up with training. In the past, I volunteered with Spencer Kennel and Pet Rescue in O'Fallon, Illinois. Here in Colorado Springs, I fostered two pit bull terriers for a year long each. Last year, I worked as a dog walker at Sunrise and Woodmen Kennels. I am a kind, responsible person who will ensure the happiness and safety of your pets. When an animal starts acting strange, I am quick to notice, and I am not afraid to contact the owner to ask questions about that behavior. My cousins are veterinarians, so I have the ability to contact them in case of an information emergency. I have a Great Pyrenees Mix and a very fluffy grey cat.

Safety, trust & environment
If I am having a pet in my home, it will always be kept on a leash outside since I do not have a fenced in yard.
Ratings and reviews
Emma was very sweet with my dog Trixie who can sometimes be fearful of new people but she took to Emma immediately! Emma followed all my requests and was very communicative with me. Thank you!
We had booked a house sitting for 4 nights. I looked at our exterior cameras after the first night and found Emma had not stayed over and had spent about 1 hour 12 minutes at the house. The following morning, she spent 18 minutes. I subsequently texted her and asked about her staying at the house. She apologized for not communicating and stated she had to tend to her crock pot. She then assured me she would be staying the remainder of the nights; we took her for her word and really didn't think about it as we were visiting family for the holidays. I recently reviewed the exterior camera footage, and the cameras tell a different story. In total Emma spent about 3 hours 40 minutes over the 4 days. Certainly not a "House Sitting". Morning timing looked like this, :18, :08, :04, :02 (: minutes) as she dropped in. In the evenings the timings were 1:12, 1:03, :22, and :39 (hour: minutes). And yes, during our meet and greet I did inform Emma that we had exterior cameras all around the house. The one-star rating reflects -1 star for each night she did not stay at the house as agreed upon. Based on the amount of food that was in the food bowl when we arrived, we are sure that our cat was well fed (probably over fed as she doesn't leave any behind and there was more than a meal in her bowl hours after feeding). We intentionally booked a house sitting to reduce the stress on our cat as she was a rescue, very social and used to people being around. We were more than disappointed when we received drop-in service.
She's friendly, reliable and punctual! Would definitely recommend booking with her.
Very friendly and my puppy had a blast with her. She seems very responsible and kept my puppy at the top of her priority list
Emma worked with me and for me as a dog walker and I highly recommend her as a dog caregiver; she is amazing with dogs and has the heart and energy to make your dog the happiest in the world. She is great at communication (with you and your dog), always timely and a joy to be around; you will not be disappointed!
Emma is the best! She keeps my dog busy on walks/hikes and always sends pics so I know they are having a good time

Schedule
I live in Fairplay and work in Breckenridge. My partner is able to stay home with my pets on days when I am needed for overnights. It would be ideal to pet sit near Frisco/Silverthorne/Breckenridge, so that I can easily get to and from your home.
