Hi! I'm a pet-lover with a calm, structured approach and 2 years of experience caring for dogs of all types-including special needs and behaviorally challenging pups. I've also raised and trained my own dogs for years, especially high-energy herding breeds where consistency and patience are key. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and sitting for both dogs and cats (overnights possible), and I'm especially comfortable with pets who are still in training. While I work best with well-managed large breeds, I'm always happy to talk through your pet's needs. I currently have a sweet lab-hound mix named Cricket, who's been my sidekick for nearly 10 years. When I'm not caring for animals, I love spending time outdoors, especially hiking. Looking forward to meeting your furry family!
Emily has been a very compassionate care giver for our dog Pepper. I hardly recommend her, and of course Pepper loves her.
