Emily

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.
