I have handled our shelter's large breed behavioral cases for the past 9 years, which has allowed me to gain a large amount of knowledge when it comes to behavioral challenges & animal body language.

My medical experience includes: - Oral dog medication - Topical dog medication - Oral cat medication - Topical cat medication - Fluids - Insulin - Eye drops - Ear drops My animal experience includes: - Dogs (all sizes & behavioral concerns) - Cats (including behavioral concerns) - Rabbits - Rats/small animals - Birds - Horses - Chickens - Pigs - Goats - Sheep My behavioral experience includes: - Resource guarding - Animal aggression - Food aggression - Toy aggression - "Stranger Danger" - Flight risks - Fear aggression - Timid/fearful behaviors - Crate & rotate situations
Reviews
Great job!
Emma has watched our four dogs for several years. Our dogs are diverse in personality and health status. Emma understands their needs and is a pro at dealing with special needs, health and behavioral issues. We never have to worry when our precious babies are with Emma! I have also had the pleasure of volunteering at a local animal rescue with her. She is someone who truly understands animals and how to handle/care for them. She is reliable and professional. I would never question trusting her with my dogs or my home. I could not recommend Emma more highly. Our dogs love her!
Since Emma was a toddler she has been a dog lover. Her love and compassion for animals, especially dogs has grown stronger and stronger throughout the years. We jokingly call her the dog whisperer due to her unique way with dogs and how well they respond to her. When you mix her love for dogs and her dedication to her work, you get an incredibly loyal person that you can trust wholeheartedly with your pet. She is experienced with all types of dogs from calm, senior dogs that just need some love and attention for their final years. To the ones with behavior problems that need a strong, well versed person that can handle them when others can’t. You won’t be letdown if she is the one you hire, you will gain a loyal person thag will help you with your pet for years to come.

Safety, trust & environment
My goal is to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet's safety during my time with them, as well as making sure they are as comfortable as possible.
Information Emma R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know ahead of time what behavioral concerns or medical issues your pet has prior to me meeting with you. If the situation is one that I am not experienced in, I would like to prepare myself prior to meeting with you through further research to ensure I am well rounded in your pet's needs.
A typical day
I am open to any activities that are your pet's favorite. I have experience with very low level energy pets, as well as high strung pets. I am not comfortable having a dog off leash (even if trained) in a not fenced area until I am their pet sitter for an extended amount of time.
