Emma can look after
Availability
I am looking to pursue pet-sitting as my full-time job as I thoroughly enjoy getting to meet new clients and their lovely pets. I have a number of ongoing repeat clients, meaning that any new bookings would need to fit around these but generally I am very flexible.

Safety, trust & environment
I follow all instructions given to me. For example if your pet(s) are only allowed access to certain areas of your home, I will ensure that this is strictly adhered to. I take safety and security very seriously, as such I will not leave windows/doors open or leave any area of your property unlocked unless specifically asked to. When we meet, I will ask about your pet(s) usual routine so that I can keep them as comfortable as possible while you are away.
Information Emma H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavioural issues so that I can cater to their needs and help them to be as comfortable with me as possible. If your pet requires medications at specific times, please let me know so that I can stick to your routine.
A typical day
I love to ensure pets have plenty of opportunities for play and that they have mental & physical stimulation. This could be playing games of fetch, sniffing out hidden treats or simple training exercises. I am more than happy to make up enrichment, where needed, to keep your pets occupied for the rest of the day. On walks we'll have lots of fun checking out all the sniffs & smells in a variety of nearby parks or fields! I am more than happy to drive your dog to a walk location they know and love, if this is preferred.

Caring and dedicated pet sitting in South Somerset
Pet care experience
Hello, I am Emma, a lifelong pet owner and dedicated animal welfare professional. I have over 4 years professional experience working with a variety of animals in animal care environments (rescue centres, boarding facilities, wildlife hospitals, animal sanctuaries). I have a degree in wildlife biology where I studied animal behaviour and welfare and completed my own research project & dissertation in this subject area. I am extremely passionate about providing the highest level of care to animals and I endeavour to ensure every need they have is met. In my most recent role, I worked as an Animal Care Assistant for 1.5 years at a boarding kennels & cattery. I am experienced in handling a wide range of dog breeds, and no matter their size, I love them all! I devote myself to providing the best possible animal care so your fur babies will be in the safest hands. I have a love for all animals so I am happy to look after whatever breed/species your pet may be! Ensuring that your pet is happy and healthy is my top priority. In your home, I will respect your property and follow all instructions/advice given to me. Typical duties I will undertake while pet-sitting or dropping in for a visit are: feeding, watering, cleaning up any messes, letting your pet outside if you have a garden or outdoor space, welfare checks, play and lots of cuddles.

Reviews
Emma did a very good job looking after our dog and I would recommend her
We couldn’t ask for a better Housesitter for our elderly dog. Emma looks after Basil so well , he seems disappointed when we return 😂
Thank you so so much for looking after our babies, we didnt worry about them once and we're able to enjoy our wedding and honeymoon knowing they were in great hands, thank you!!
Emma was absolutely amazing with my three cats over three days of drop ins. I was really nervous about leaving them as I had never done so before, but after meeting in person and checking out the daily updates to see how happy my cats were, I realised I had nothing to worry about at all! Emma provided regular updates and pictures and clearly took the time to gain each of my cats trust, played with them and gave them treats! Will be using Emma again and would recommend her to anyone! Thank you again Emma 🐱❤️
