Pet care experience

Animal lover

Hi! I’m an animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pets. I grew up with family pets and currently have four cats of my own, so animals have always been a big part of my life. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets and treat them like family. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from energetic Lab mixes twice my size to senior pups who prefer a slower pace and plenty of cuddles. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs and cats at once, volunteered at animal shelters, and have experience with smaller animals, including rats, mice, and other small pets. I’m comfortable with dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and administering oral medications. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and your instructions so they receive consistent, personalized care while you’re away. I work full-time as a teacher during the week, so I currently offer pet care on weekends. Having weekends available allows me to dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a quick jog, some playtime, or a relaxing visit with plenty of attention and cuddles, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’m also happy to provide attentive, gentle care for smaller pets and make sure they receive the same love and attention as the bigger animals. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and become someone you can rely on to give them the care and attention they deserve! 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

I will keep a close eye on your pet and follow the rules you and I agree on ahead of time. I do not accept boarding but am happy to drop in to your home to keep you and your pet comfortable! Communication is key, and as a pet parent who has been let down by pet sitters before, I know how important it is to keep you in the loop on your pet! I adore animals and have deep respect for the bond a pet has as part of the family.

An absolute sweetheart! Even though a cat visit doesn’t take 30min since we have an automatic feeder, waterer, & litter box (just refill or clean), she makes sure to stay the full time & play with my cats. Excellent communication & follows directions very well. Would definitely book again for our next long trip.

Dog Walking • Jan 26, 2021

Emma has taken care of my dogs multiple times when I’m away. She’s been easy to work with, very reliable, and has kept me well informed as to how my pups are doing. Highly recommended.

Emma was great with my two larger, older dogs. She was very reliable, followed their routine very well, and did a great job of sending pictures and communicating about how they were doing. I highly recommend her.

House Sitting • Dec 11, 2019

Emma sat for us twice now. She was great both times. Our pups were happy and seemed to adjust to us being gone well. Emma was great at keeping me updated on them and we communicated frequently throughout our absence. We have already talked to her regarding our trip in the Spring because we are so pleased with her work.
