Information Emma D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has a special needs, what their routines are. I want to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible when they’re with me! I love all breeds but have the most experience with medium-large dogs.

A typical day

I have puzzle games, toys, we can play fetch in the yard, take long walks around the neighborhood and then come home and rest on the couch!

Active animal lover

Pet care experience

I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family since I was a teenager. I have experience with young, active, senior and reactive dogs. I owned a senior dog for the last few years and have experience with medications and taking things a little slower for those older pups. I love taking dogs out for walks, playing in the back yard, dog park, etc

My pups had another great stay with Emma - happy, healthy and excited to see her again for a night! Emma takes great care of them, and she's both super-friendly and accommodating schedule-wise. Thanks!
