Pet care experience

Your pets will love me like family!

Hi! My name is Emm! I am a queer and queer-friendly person and active in my community. I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I raised puppies, walked massive dobermans, and at one point took care of 13 dogs at once! Feeding, watering, cleaning up after, walking, and loving your pet like you would are my top priorities. I lived with my father after becoming an adult and took care of his cat. Animals of all kinds are fine by me!

Emm was awesome with our dogs! We were worried about being away from them for a week because one of them has pretty bad anxiety. When we got back she was just as happy as ever. They kept us up to date with anything happening throughout the week. We would recommend Emm to anyone and everyone.

Emm was an absolute delight to have watching our dogs! We know that our pups can be a bit of a handful with their energy levels, but Emm handled their enthusiasm and food aggression problems with aplomb. Everything had been cleaned and washed when we got home, which was very appreciated, and the dogs were clearly happy and well cared for, which is the most important thing to me.

Loved having M at my house. My dogs were calm and relaxed when I got home and they had water (pet peeve coming home to no water) and they had taken care of everything the way I asked while I was gone for several days. Would 100% hire them again. My dogs are picky about who they like sometimes too.

We were gone for two weeks and were very nervous our dogs would be really sad or anxious. But when we came home, both dogs were in great spirits and had obviously been very well loved and cared for. Our house was also totally clean and in best shape. M was kind and caring to our pets and provided updates & photos. We would definitely recommend him.

I love to play with the animals I watch! Fetch, tug of war, string mice for cats, and plenty of outside time. We will go on walks, visit local parks, and sniff as many different things as possible.
