Hi, I'm Emily! I'm a 26-year-old woman, I work in project management for a charity and love going for walks, reading books and exploring London. I moved over to London nearly a year ago from New Zealand. I work from home three days a week, going into the office two days a week.
I have grown up with dogs, guinea pigs, turtles, hamsters and rabbits so I feel at home tending to and anticipating the needs of all types of animals. I love building connections with animals based on trust, fun and respect. I'm eager to be a pet sitter to make every pet's time away from their family as easy and comfortable as possible. Also, I love giving affection and receiving nuzzles and kisses!
I have previous experience visiting homes to feed animals and have pet sit a whippet through BorrowMyDoggy. Over Covid I fostered a dog for 3 months.
I am happy to have vaccinated pets in my home for short periods of time.
Dog boarding option: Dog will have access to two outdoor areas. Our front yard which is fully fenced from the road, and our back porch entrance from the kitchen. Dogs will be allowed in communal spaces downstairs - kitchen and lounge - and will be allowed in my bedroom upstairs. We are in a terraced house occupying the ground and top floor. We have neighbours down in the basement flat.
I live with two flatmates, both women age 25 and 29. We all work from home two days a week. It is unlikely a pet will be home alone for more than 1 hour.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
I couldn’t have wished for a better home and sitter for Disco whilst I was away! I felt so relaxed knowing he was with Emily! I got lots of updates and Disco was so happy when I picked him up. I highly recommend Emily, she is wonderful!
I went on vacation and left my Frenchie Joey with Emily for 8 days and it was like my dog went on vacation too. Joey seemed to have had the best of time and enjoyed endless sunbathing and cuddles. Emily has a beautiful, dog friendly flat and Joey got lots of little places to make herself comfortable.
Within the first 5 minutes of meeting Emily I knew she had good instincts for dogs and their needs, so I was more than comfortable Joey was in good hands. I got regular updates and communication was easy and very good.
Joey was in great spirits when I picket her up so I would 100% recommend Emily and would definitely book her again.
