Information Emma R. would like to know about your pet

If they're reactive for any reason towards people, children, other dogs, cats, etc. If they have any other behavioral issues I should know about ahead of time that is appreciated. I'm more than okay with working with a dog that might need extra patience or attention I just like to be informed of it ahead of time.

A typical day

I love dog parks, so if there are any dog parks you take your dogs to that you like, I'm happy to take them there. I also have a fully fenced in back yard that is great for getting energy out and lots of play time.

Pet care experience

I've had dogs in my life since the day I was born. I have experience with a range of dog breeds from a small havenese to a 100 lb Bernadoodle. I've owned my own dog for 6 years and he's an energetic, loving golden retriever who I'm lucky to call my best friend. I also have a cuddly cat named Blue who would love nothing more than to eat and cuddle all day long. I understand the pain of leaving your pets behind to go make a living, have a social life, or any number of reasons. I want to help you feel more at ease when you leave your pet at home.

Kennedy was so happy with Emma and Remy! I had such peace of mind, plenty of updates and Kennedy didn’t want to leave her new friend when it was time to go! Would recommend 10/10 times

Emma came twice a day for drop in visits to care for 1 dog and 6 cats. She did great with all of them!!! Would definitely book with Emma again!

Emma was so great with our 3 month old puppy! We are always a bit nervous to leave him, but she made us feel totally at ease. She took him out to potty frequently, gave him lots of snuggles, and kept us updated the whole time. We will be booking Emma again :)
