I work full-time in pet care, not just as a job but as a way to support myself doing something I genuinely love. Caring for animals is what my daily life revolves around—whether I’m looking after clients’ pets or coming home to my own two fur babies who mean everything to me. Balancing professional care with my own pets keeps me grounded and constantly connected to what matters most: making sure every animal feels safe, loved, and well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide the kind of care I’d want for my own animals—attentive, reliable, and genuinely loving. When I’m caring for pets in their home, I go above and beyond to keep everything as consistent and stress-free as possible. I stick closely to their usual routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, because I know how important familiarity is for their comfort. I take the time to really connect with each animal, learning their personality, preferences, and little quirks so they feel safe and understood while you’re away. I keep their environment clean, make sure they’re mentally and physically stimulated, and always prioritize their safety and well-being. You can expect regular updates, clear communication, and the peace of mind that your pets are being treated like family every step of the way.

Information Emma R. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, it’s super helpful to know a few key things to make sure everything goes smoothly. Things like their daily routine, feeding schedule, energy level, and any quirks or habits they have (like being shy, reactive, or obsessed with squirrels 😅). It’s also important to know about any medical needs, allergies, or medications, plus how they are with other animals or people. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can match their routine and make them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away 🐾

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I care for is super relaxed and all about keeping them happy and comfortable in their own routine. Mornings usually start with breakfast, fresh water, and some outdoor time or a walk to burn off that early energy. After that, it’s a mix of playtime, chill time, and lots of attention. We might play fetch, tug, or run around outside, or just hang out and cuddle if they’re more laid-back. I love mixing in fun things like sniff walks, little training games, or puzzle toys to keep them mentally engaged too. For cats or calmer pets, it’s more about interactive play, brushing, bird watching, and just keeping them company so they don’t feel alone. Every pet is different, so I just go with their vibe—whether that’s high-energy fun or slow, cozy days. The goal is always the same: happy, tired (in a good way), and feeling totally safe and loved by the end of the day 🐾

Reliable, Loving Care for Your Pets

Pet care experience

With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I provide reliable, attentive care for animals of all kinds—from household pets to less traditional pets and I’m comfortable handling a wide range of needs, including feeding routines, medication, exercise, and enrichment, always with a calm and compassionate approach. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a senior pet needing extra patience, or more specialized animal care, I prioritize safety, consistency, and making every animal feel secure and well cared for in my hands.

Emma stayed at our home with our cat and senior dog for 10 nights while we were on vacation. She was absolutely amazing. Our dog recently started to experience small seizures and Emma provided excellent care and cuddles which was exactly what our old girl needed. She checked in daily to let us know how our furry family members were doing. We truly don’t know what we would have done without her. Highly recommend Emma for pet sitting, walking, or if you just need someone to check in our your pets if you’re working a long shift.

Emma has been looking after our cats for the last 4 years and we can’t say enough good things about her! It gives us such peace of mind while we are away, knowing that our cats are in such capable hands. She treats them like they are her own. She is very personable and responsible and is always punctual! I would highly recommend her!
