About: I've cared for dogs since I was young, my grandmother taught me grooming skills on her poodles and we had a Maltese rescue. I was also a manager of a dog boarding facility in Indiana, so I've seen a lot! I was responsible for administration of medications, handling injuries and runs to the vets office (owners preferred vet). I can handle just about anything from large power-house pups down to the little sassy woofs! I currently work part-time, with full autonomy of my schedule. I'm able to care for your baby whenever you need. Let me know how I can help you! I have dog sat pets of friends, family, neighbors and even new clients. I've cared for dogs on medications from pills to insulin. I have experience with many different play & feed routines as well as various structures that owners have for their pups. I understand the stress of leaving a pup at a facility so I value the importance of having someone you trust caring for your fur baby in their own home. I'm also fluent in curbing unwanted behaviors- if there is something I can do to continue the training you're diligently teaching your dog, let me know! I'd love to help continue that when the pup is in my care.

“Sierra put my mind at ease over leaving my skittish kitty. She took very good care of her and sent me pictures at each check in. What a relief not to worry about your pet when you’re away. Thank you!!”

“Emily is a top-notch petsitter, taking special care of my two kitties while I was away on a long vacation. It made the trip so much easier knowing they were in her care.
