Dog loving family wants dog love:)
Pet care experience
Hi, I am a mother of 3 wonderful kids (11, 15, 17) After we lost our beloved 60 pound labradoodle in 2015 we were heart broken. But over time, we began to miss having a dog at home, so not being ready to adopt a new K9 family member we Instead fostered two dogs (who are now both placed with loving families) and we began dog sitting as a way to get 'dog love’. After several years of dog sitting, we find ourselves in a new position now in 2022. My mother and her sweet companion dog Jack are now here with us full time. I am away from the house about 12-15 days a month traveling for work with the remainder of the days dedicated to dog sitting. But great thing is, Mom and Jack are here all the time! We have a nice, big, fenced yard and a pool. Our pool has an area for shallow paddling, or our doggie guests can jump in for a full-on swim if their owners are ok with it, or the pool can be covered if owners would prefer. My children have been around dogs big and small for many years, and they are all extremely familiar with appropriate dog handling behavior. Obviously, because I have children, we only accept dogs and cats that are ok with kids and dogs. I accept up to three dogs at a time, but sometimes less depending on the personality and potential group dynamic of the dogs coming to stay. There is always someone home overnight. During the day there is never an empty house for more than a couple of hours with either myself or my mother here. We have a large fenced yard with heated pool, and 2,800 sq ft interior for your fur baby to enjoy. Including lots of soft couches and beds for snuggling on (if owners are ok with that).
Reviews
Fantastic, A+++ service! Emma accepted our request to sit our three dogs on short notice and during the holidays, which was so awesome of her and incredibly lucky on our part. I had read her great reviews so I wasn’t worried, but being the first time, I was hoping and praying that my three knuckleheads wouldn’t cause too much trouble. Everything worked out great and better than I had even hoped! Our 19-year-old Shih Tzu, Rocky, even jumped into the shallow side of Emmas’s pool, which was quite hilarious. We adopted Rocky when he was 15, so we didn’t know of his passion for splashing in the water, which was cold, so he didn’t make a second attempt. Our counter-surfing rascal, Blu, stole a couple of meatballs during Emma’s Christmas Eve dinner, but fortunately, the family stopped her before she could get too many. I highly recommend Emma, and will use her service again in the future.
Emma and her precious kids
Emma is great! My dog Draco loves her so much. She always sends me updates and photos and makes sure he gets lots of love!
Emma was amazing with Mav!! Was able to accommodate and drop him off at my place while I was out at Epcot!!
