Hi there! My name is Emily and I am 27 years old, currently living in the South Eastern suburbs of Melbourne with my parents and our 14 year old Jack Russell, Jack (pictured).
I decided to start pet sitting because I love being around animals and I have the spare time to do it!
My love for dogs started from a very early age, having grown up with our family labrador, Snowy. We now have Jack who we adopted as a rescue 13 years ago.
I have been pet sitting since November 2020 but prior to this I looked after my friend's dog for 4 weeks over the 2019 Christmas period while she was overseas.
I haven't had any cats of my own but am often around friend's or family's cats and have looked after a few over the past couple of months.
I always try my best to stick to your pet's normal routine with feeding and walking times (for dogs), plus offer plenty of cuddles and TLC! With my pet sitting you can expect to receive daily photo updates, at least one 45 minute to an hour walk for your dog per day (can do morning and night on non work days) and general housekeeping duties such as collecting mail, keeping the yard clean and taking out the rubbish. I am a trustworthy and careful individual and looking after your pet(s) is always my number one priority.
I am currently working Monday-Friday at a cafe in Malvern. My working hours do vary at the moment but I tend to be home most evenings and have the occasional social activity on weekends.
I don't have any restrictions on dog breed, size or age am able to look after more than one pet at a time.
A little more about me:
In my spare time, I enjoy reading, yoga or simply spending time with family and close friends.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!
Note: my dog will not come with me when pet sitting
Super trustworthy great sitter! Book her for sure!
We (and our pets) absolutely loved Emily, she was truly the perfect pet sitter. She immediately made us feel comfortable in our meet and greet, as anxious owners for the first time leaving our pup Maggie.
She bonded with Maggie so quickly and our kitty Frankie even returned from her usual neighbourhood rounds to hang out with her. Emily was really in tune with all our silly specific pet requests and even left the house beautiful and her sheets clean.
We got lots of lovely photos of them and updates each day. But I think the best part was coming home - Maggie was excited but not over-worked or anxious. That meant to us that she really felt comfortable and felt loved by Emily.
1000% recommend Emily, will happily have her come again! You will love her
Thank you Emily <3
Leaving our animals in someone's care is something that makes me anxious (because we love them so much!) but we could not have been happier or more comfortable having Emily take care of them. Receiving photos from Emily with our 2 dogs and cat snuggling up to her on the couch relieved ALL the anxiety we had and we could tell they loved having Emily look after them. We will definitely book Emily again when we go away next time! Without hesitation! And the bonus was when we arrived home, our house was clean and sparkling too. A massive thanks to Emily (again) and I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving and caring house sitter for your animals.
