Gentle care for every pet!

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for all sorts of animals from horses to hamsters and everything in between. Personally, I’ve had dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles, and fish. My experience with birds is more limited. However, I do have some experience handling and caring for them via my job as a pet counselor at Petland where I specialized in caring for small mammals and birds and helped pet parents decide on care/products. I was later a kennel technician for Petland. Furthermore, I have experience working with aggressive/anxious dogs. Finally, two of my volunteer experiences involved animals, the first was Casey’s Save Haven horse rescue and the second is Wings and Talons working with ambassador birds of prey!

Emma was wonderful with Wall-E and Eva! She was attentive, communicative, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. My two orange cats can be particular, and Emma took the time to follow their routines and keep me updated with photos and messages while I was away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, HIGHLY recommend!

I believe Emma M will make a great dog walker and pet caregiver. Emma is versed in the care of dogs, cat, guinea pigs and fish. Emma has personally cared for my dog Rosie. She has trimmed Rosie’s nails, given her baths and taken her for walks. Emma has gain my dogs trust. Anyone who hires Emma will be well pleased with her follow through. Eileen B
