Pet care experience

Lots of experience with many dogs!

Hi! My name is Emma and I own a golden retriever who I’ve trained to do different tricks/obedience and to compete in dog sports. Through that I’ve earned tons of experience working with many different dog breeds. My family has owned multiple large dogs, including Great Pyrenees, making me reputable for watching a variety of breeds. I have also dog and cat sit regularly for many different neighbors and friends for 6 years now.

Boarding • Aug 13, 2026

Emma was so great with our 8-month-old pup! We had our pup stay with her for 3 nights, and we were very confident in her expertise and comfort with dogs. She provided a loving environment for our pup, shared photos with us, fed her as we asked her to, and took her on plenty of walks. Our pup loved all the playtime she got with other dogs at Emma’s house. Emma accommodated us in letting our dog have a couple long play dates at her house prior to our trip to get her accustomed to staying there. We’d highly recommend Emma for boarding services!

Emma has been a wonderful sitter for my pup! She made sure my pup got his enrichment needs. My puppy is pretty active and has lots of energy. Emma played with him, gave him puzzles, and walked him. She sent a lot of pictures which was helpful for me haha. Would highly recommend her! Couldn’t be more grateful she was able to take care of our puppy ♥️

Safety, trust & environment

In my home I have a large fenced yard with two very friendly dogs! I have an extra room with a crate if needed or my bed along with my Golden if preferred. My two dogs have different feeding schedules so I’m adaptable to whatever the owner requests! I am also very happy to send pictures daily to make the owner feel more comfortable.

Pets

A typical day

I love to exercise dogs both mentally and physically as needed for each individual dog. I’m familiar with high energy dog breeds as I’ve owned and trained a Border Collie and have gotten the chance to work with other high driven dogs. Whether that’s 1 to multiple walks a day, puzzles, simple obedience work, trips to the park, or chill days for a calm pup I’m up for it!
