I am a currently enrolled student at the University of South Florida, with classes on Mondays from 11:00 AM to 3:15 PM and Wednesdays from 2:00 PM to 7:15 PM. On Tuesdays, I have an internship at a local elementary school as part of my major in Elementary Education, making it my busiest day with a schedule from 7:30 AM to 3:45 PM. Outside of these commitments, my schedule remains flexible. I am happy to accommodate your needs and will do my best to arrange a schedule that allows me to spend quality time with your fur babies.

Safety, trust & environment

From the moment I start caring for your pet, they become part of my family. I’m not just here to watch over them—I’m genuinely excited to get to know their unique personality and quirks. Your pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I strive to make my time with them as seamless and enjoyable as when they are with you. Since I care for them in their familiar environment, I prioritize maintaining their routine, ensuring they feel comfortable. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or quiet companionship, I tailor my care to what makes them happiest. Additionally, I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and well cared for, so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away.

Information Emma L. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me of any medical conditions or dietary requirements your pet may have, so I can ensure they receive the appropriate care. Additionally, it would be helpful to know if your pet has any behavioral concerns, along with the preferred methods for addressing them, to ensure a smooth and positive experience.

A typical day

I try my best to accommodate activities done throughout the day based on your pet's energy level. High energy and super energetic?? No worries, I’m happy to take them on long walks, play with their favorite toys, or let them run around in a fenced backyard. If you're comfortable and your pet enjoys car rides, I’m also flexible with taking them to nearby walking spots—such as Armature Works—or to a local dog park to help them burn off extra energy (both of which I have done before). My goal is to keep them happy and active! If your pet is more low-maintenance and loves to relax, that’s great too! I always love some extra quiet time and snuggles with a cuddle bug.

Your Pet is Family, Full of Love!

Pet care experience

Many of my friends are proud owners of large dogs, and they know they can rely on me to go above and beyond in providing exceptional care for their pets. Because I view pets as an extension of the family, I enjoy spending quality time with them—whether that’s going on long walks, playful with them, or simply sharing a quiet moment together. I am committed to ensuring your pets receive the same level of love, attention, and care that I would give to my own, making every moment we spend together meaningful and enjoyable.

Emma always does such a great job with communicating, sending adorable pictures of our pets, and keeping them happy, fed, and loved while we are away. We also come back to spotlessly clean pet bowls, since she washed them as she went! We are always so impressed with Emma!

Emma did an amazing job taking care of our two German Shepherds, Lily and Stella! From the moment we met her, we felt confident they were in great hands. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure they were comfortable and well cared for while we were away. She kept us updated, gave them plenty of attention, and we came home to two happy dogs. We highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. We wouldn't hesitate to have her watch Lily and Stella again!
