Reliable, full-time pet lover

Pet care experience

To owners searching for pet services: in addition to walking dogs, I can care for cats, rodents, or just about any pet if you're going out of town or in between moves. Message me if you have a special request! I have been raised with family dogs since I was born. I love dogs of all ages, and I appreciate their personalities. I am 23 years old, native to Pittsburgh, currently studying nursing. For the past two years I have played the role of full time ferret mom, outsmarting little bandits like its my job. I can provide plenty of play and company for any pet. I'm hoping to spend my free time walking dogs for a little extra cash and exercise. I would like to make some furry friends along the way!

First the good- Emma was very flexible, we dropped our dog off at 5:30am as we were catching an early flight, which was very nice. A lot of people would probably not have been up for that. However, things were not quite "as advertised"- she stated in her profile there was "one dog, no other pets" in the house, so we were surprised when we arrived to find no dog, and 3 ferrets (one was free-range when we arrived). She stated there was a back yard, which we did not get a chance to see, but her apartment was on the second floor and I suspect our dog was not taken out at the stated 0-2 hour intervals. The sitter told us our dog had 3 accidents in the house when our dog is house trained and makes it through our typical 8-10 hour workday without accidents. We had explained her typical potty schedule. When we arrived to pick her up at the end of her stay, it was 11am. Emma was in her pajamas and our dog peed and pooped within seconds of coming out the door- I suspect she had not been taken out yet that day. She did lose our dog's nametag, which she offered to replace, but she did not mention or offer to replace the gentle leader harness she must not have been using correctly because it was chewed through. In the end, our dog was alive when we picked her up, and we were very happy to see her.

It was obvious that Emma had spent a lot of time playing with and caring for Coda based on how energetic and happy he was when I showed up to pick him up. Convenient pick up and drop off times too. Great sitter!

Information Emma M. would like to know about your pet

I want to know what your dog likes. Busy streets or a quiet trail? What are their favorite toys? Are they fond of car rides? Anything that will make a great time, I want to know it.

A typical day

When your pup is with me, we will take a walk through Highland Park or take a stroll downtown at the Point. We can visit the water steps or stay close to home. Maybe even run puppy errands to a local pet store.
