Hi, my name is Emma, and I have been pet sitting for over 5 years now. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, fish, guinea pigs, birds, and bunnies.
I love being around animals. Working with them can be chaotic, but also incredibly rewarding. The memories we share with them are unique and wonderful.
Growing up I had a dog named Wilbur. He passed away in 2019, but I made him a promise to not only work with animals but to take in those in need when I have the opportunity.
Since having Wilbur, I have had experience with dogs of various breeds from Rottweilers, Golden's, and Shih Tzu's. That includes walking in all types of weather, reporting what happens during their walks, socializing, playing, feeding, and dealing with behavioural issues/trauma.
I have been cat sitting for years as well, I have experience with numerous breeds. Most of them have been rescues so they all have their one quirks and social batteries. Their care includes playing/bonding, scooping their litter, washing dishes, cleaning their litter areas, feeding, treats, resetting environments, and giving treats.
My experience with fish is feeding them on schedule. I have had Bettas throughout my life, in addition to guppies, cories, and snails. So tank cleaning, veggie prep, etc I am experienced in too.
I currently have three rescues cats of my own and two guinea pigs I adopted when they needed a home. I also walk my sister's dog while she is at school. Like above that involves reports of how the walk went and positive reinforcement. I additionally watch her occasionally so that includes feeding, brushing, playing, walking, and enrichment time. I also have experience with handling separation anxiety, and that varies from interaction adaptations to securing the environment to prevent harm and destruction.
When I pet sit or house sit, I can also do other tasks like laundry (for pets), dishes, general tidying (sweeping and garbage removal), and bringing the mail inside.
I prefer pet sitting out of my residence, as I live with relatives that have allergies and a reactive dog. Preferably all pets should be vaccinated and up to date on their vet visits prior to any extended pet sitting or house sitting.

Emma was amazing ! Accommodating and professional.
She kept me updated every day with pictures.
She made our trip easy and stress free knowing we can rely on her.
Our cats loved her as she paid attention and gave them love !
Would definitely recommend hiring her and will be contacting her again for future needs !
AMAZING sitter and person overall. Took care of my cats very well and was extremely patient with my cat who is very shy. Communicated clearly with me and followed all the instructions I left. Went above and beyond! 11/10 would recommend to anyone needing a sitter!
