Loving & Dependable Animal Lover
⭐️San Diego Humane Society Volunteer ⭐️Relible & Open Communication ⭐️Ultimate Animal Lover! Hi! I'm Emma, a senior at PLNU and a passionate dog and cat lover based in Point Loma. I volunteer at the San Diego Humane Society and have years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes—from energetic Huskies and German Shepherds to small terriers and everything in between. I'm reliable, responsive, and committed to keeping your dog's routine as consistent as possible. I treat every pet like they're my own and love getting to know each dog's unique personality. I primarily serve Point Loma, Ocean Beach, Pacific Beach, and Clairemont, and I'd love to meet you and your furry family! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a complimentary meet-and-greet.

I am not from San Diego so I am totally missing my own dogs. I would be so excited to spend any time with your pets!
Ratings and reviews
We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our crew—two cats and an anxious foster dog—while we were out of town for a week. Emma checked in three times a day, every day, and her visit reports were detailed and reassuring. What stood out most was how she handled our foster dog, who struggles with anxiety around new people. Instead of rushing things, she took the time to let her warm up to her at her own pace, and by the end of the week she clearly trusted her. Communication was excellent throughout, and it was such a relief to be away and never have to wonder how things were going. Highly recommend her for anyone with pets who need a little extra patience and attention, especially multi-pet or special-needs households.
Emma was awesome with Charlie! She followed the care instructions to a T and did a great job. Charlie loved meeting Emma and spending time with her. 10/10!!!

Emma is an excellent caregiver for our many pets and a reliable Housesitter! She has been pet/house sitting for us for many years. Our big German shepherd loves her and he doesn’t love many people! You won’t regret hiring Emma!
Emma is our favorite home and pet sitter. She took great care of our home and our westie. She was very respectful and kind. She treated our dog like her own. She even sent us some updates and pictures while we were away. We highly recommend her. She is truly amazing.
