Emily is a extremely reliable and caring person, working at a kennel taking care of many different dogs/cats and also volunteering her time at a shelter. She is very understanding and patient with animals and is a pet owner herself, owning both cats and dogs. She has watched my cat for me before and I always know that my cat is loved and well cared for ❤️. I know she loves animals as much as I do and will always trust her to take care of my pets!

Sami/Emily is an incredibly hard and dedicated worker who always puts care and compassion into her work. She’s kind, patient, gentle, empathetic and understanding. She has watched my pitty and hamster multiple times. I always know that my animals will be loved just like I’m there. I can tell she’s an animal lover just like any pet owner!

Safety, trust & environment

I have an unfenced yard, but the neighborhood is about a mile one way so they’ll have plenty of space to take walks. I also live close by a dog park that we can visit if they need a little extra space to run around. I have a dog and a cat but my cat will only be limited to my room.

Pets

A typical day

I love playing games with dogs and taking walks. Always have time to sniff around or even just give some extra love to lower energy dogs.
