Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Emma :) I’m experienced in taking care of a wide variety of pets from a highly reactive Akita to new kittens. I also have limited experience with lizards and I’m always ready to learn how to take care of new pets with special needs! I’m from Alaska, so a majority of my dog experience is with northern and typically “aggressive” breeds. My favorite days are when I get to go on hikes, but if your pet lives a less active lifestyle I also enjoy a nice lazy day in the couch.

Really awesome to work with!!! Emma took great care of my dogs! I will gladly have Emma watch my dogs again! :)
We contacted Emma in mid-July for a September booking. Our pup is leash reactive to some dogs/people, and we wanted to ensure that Emma was comfortable and experienced with reactive dogs. We met three times of varying lengths and places, and Emma was wonderfully capable each time. Our pup took to her immediately (always a positive sign!) and came home happy from his interactions with Emma. When we left our pup with her for a 5 day stay in September, she regularly sent photos to show how he was doing. Emma exhibits calmness, responsibility, understanding and carefulness in her handling of our pup. We highly recommend her and will be booking her again.
My daughter Emma has always loved having and caring for pets. Our family was never without a cat or two and had a dog in the house the majority of her childhood. We got a yellow lab, Mari, when she was 2 years and they grew up together. Emma was responsible for assisting in taking care as soon she was old enough. After Mari passed Emma talked me into allowing her to foster an Akita, Whiskey. We had her for the last 2 years Emma was in high school, right up until she left for college. Emma was Whiskey’s primary caregiver during that time. She was a high energy dog and Emma enjoyed spend time training and taking her on hikes. She’s also a wonderful cat mom. Her cat Cora has been living with her for the last year. I’m sure Emma would take great care of your pet(s). She loves animals and would care for them as if they were her own.

Safety, trust & environment
When boarding in my home, I will be spending all of my time with your pet. When I care for dogs, I like to spend lots of time playing outside and going on walks or hikes. However, the way I care for your pet will be heavily guided by their individual needs and your personal preferences.
Home
Information Emma L. would like to know about your pet
I like to get to know each animal's personalities as I get to spend more time with them. I do like to know if they have any behavioral issues (dog-aggression, biting, etc.) or triggers as well as any medical conditions I should be aware of.
A typical day
On a typical day you can find me outside either on a hike or in my garden. I love to take dogs with me on hikes or I walk them down to my neighborhood park to play fetch or just run around..

I work as a kennel tech as my main gig and have recently started a new path as a dog trainer in my free time. If your dog has any basic obedience training needs (leash manners, sitting + staying, puppy socialization, etc) I’d love to use the opportunity to get more experience with training.
