Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Emma. I’m an experienced and diligent pet sitter who is currently available for drop ins, walks, and occasional house sitting. I wasn’t taking bookings for a couple years due to my work schedule, but I’m taking some time off and am excited to be able to do more of something I love! I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s beloved pet quite seriously. I have experience with reactive dogs and have a passion for working with dogs. I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was a small child. I love communicating with and caring for animals. If you trust me to look after your pet, I will treat them like I would my own family member! I love the outdoors and love to run so I can take your pup on lots of adventures if they’re up for it! I am not currently able to provide overnight or constant care but am available for drop in visits and walks.
Reviews
Emma was fabulous. She watched our testy old lady dog through not one, but TWO NC snow storms. We came back to a tidy house and a happy dog. Will definitely have Emma stay over again!
Emma was super communicative and my pets were in good hands! The house was in great shape upon return and I will definitely book with Emma again!
Emma did a fantastic job with my anxious pup! She was able to deal with Chloe's energy and was patient yet firm with her, and in tune with what Chloe needed. She went above and beyond to deal with a smoke alarm that started chirping and was stressing Chloe out, and let me know promptly if an issue arose. I'm grateful to have found such a caring dogsitter, and hope book Emma again!
Emma watched two of our pups while we were traveling for the holidays, and it was so nice to not have to worry whether they were in good hands. Would definitely hire her again!
About Emma P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am available for drop in visits in your home, and available for walking dogs or in neighborhoods or trails. I’m not a fan of dog parks. I have put a lot of time into training my own rescue pittie mix and have a huge soft spot for these pups. I try to be very attentive to dog communication signals and make sure dogs in my care are getting enough mental and physical stimulation. I’m also able to provide kitty care! I appreciate open and clear communication about expectations for care. I’ll treat your home with respect and leave it as it was found.
Information Emma P. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors I can account for, including medication or healthcare needs. I like to have an idea of what your pet’s daily routine is, if they have any anxiety triggers, and how I can make sure your pet feels comfortable and has fun during our time!
A typical day
I love hanging out with dogs more than anything! I love hiking if you have an adventurous pup. I usually take my dog to the Eno or on a long lead in a park or field. I like playing with kitties (if they are interested), keeping them company, making sure food and water is full and fresh, and daily litter scooping.

Availability
I’m currently available full time to care for your pups! I have my own dog who I sometimes need to walk and feed throughout the day if my partner isn’t able to watch her while I’m on a sit.
