Information Emma H. would like to know about your pet

We do live in an apartment so please consider how your dog does on elevators and when running into other furry friends in the lobby😊 Please let me know what makes your dog the happiest - special treats, playing with certain toys, etc. I would also appreciate knowing about anything that might upset them, such as blow up animals, loud noises, etc.

A typical day

We will go on walks of varying routes as much as possible to give them new scents to explore. I live in close proximity to a dog park and am happy to spend some time with your dog there to provide them with extra exercise and some socialization, if that is something they would enjoy and you are comfortable with. I also just enjoy couch cuddles with a pup and will give them all the love!

Emma was the best! She sent me so many pictures and updates so I felt confident my dog was well taken care of.

Emma is amazing! She took Millie on so many fun adventures, sent tons of photos, and was very easy to communicate and coordinate with. Millie is already looking forward to her next stay :)

Emma and Joe were wonderful with our goldendoodle Primrose! They gave us regular updates throughout the day with plenty of photos and they accommodated our early drop offs without any issues! We will definitely reach out to them again!

We used Emma (and her fiancee Joe) for the second time and we will continue to keep bringing Stella to them again, and again, and again... for as long as they'll let us! They keep you updated with pictures daily and went above and beyond and took Stella on an adventure when nice weather made an appearance. Can't recommend the two of them enough!
