Phd student dog and house sitter

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Emma and I am a dog loving health policy phd student! I have over 15 years of experience taking care of dogs. I have dog sat and walked dogs for years in addition to being the primary care taker for a family dog and my own 20 pound terrier mix. I am friendly, enthusiastic, and reliable. I have experience with terriers, labs, poodles, etc. -- dogs big and small, young and old. I am very organized and detail-oriented, so can quickly understand and pick up on dogs' different behaviors. As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule and would love to be available to help you out by walking or caring for your dog! I have an incredibly dog friendly 20 pound dog Poppy who would come with me and keep your pup company! Our typical schedule is a morning, afternoon, and evening walk. Depending on your dog's socialization and comfort preferences, we can also include trips to the dog park to play. We will walk an average of 3-10 miles per day depending on your dog's preferences.

Emma was super responsive and helpful for a last minute dog boarding request. My senior pup returned happy and calm. I will be using Emma in the future!!

Emma did such a great job with Charles (4 m/o pup)! She sent so many cute photos and was flexible and punctual on timing. She took him out for daily plays and was so comfortable with dogs. She left our house super clean, which was an added bonus!

Emma was great! She stayed overnight at my house all week and helped give meds to my cat. She was flexible and great with communication any time there was an update for me. Would definitely book her again.

Information Emma T. would like to know about your pet

I would love to understand any behavioral triggers your dog may have -- does he/she respond to children, loud sounds, skateboards/bikers/runners/etc. -- so that we can ensure safe walks for the pup and the community.

A typical day

Together your dog and I will go on a long morning and evening walk, check out the neighborhood smells. If your dog likes dog parks, there is one within 0.5 miles from my house and one within 2 miles.
