Pet Sitter in Sedona, Arizona

I'm an
Individual
Hello! I grew up in a family owned dog boarding, grooming, and training facility. This instilled a love for all animals and a heightened level of responsibility from a young age. My primary background is working line German Shepherds but I have been around nearly every breed of dog plus cats, reptiles, birds, fish, horses, and various farm animals. I have worked in dog rescue for the last 6 years which has given me the opportunity to learn how to adapt to the individual dog I am working with and provide individualized care. I have been working as a pet sitter through word of mouth referrals for the last 6 years and have greatly enjoyed my experience doing so. I have recently decided to take a year to travel America along with my 2 dogs and a cat. We enjoy seeing all the stunning nature and meeting new friends along the way. I update my petsitter profile according to where I am located at the time being. Currently, we are in the Sedona, Arizona area and intend to be here through late April. I have experience with medical and behavioral needs. I am also experienced in holistic modalities - specifically essential oils, nutrition, and energy work - and do classes and consultations for owners, rescues, and kennels. While I do not hold any certificate as a trainer (as there is no legal guideline for these programs) I was raised in a dog training facility and am well versed in this area. I am accustomed to over night pet sitting however I am also available for daily check ins, walking, and consulting work. Please contact me at [email protected]

Emma is an excellent pet sitter. I trust her with my dog Ellie. Emma has watched Ellie and our house while we were on vacations. She is extremely reliable with our pet and with our house. Emma has an animal background so she knows how to handle different situations with pets. I feel relaxed on my vacations because I know Ellie is getting the best of care.

My family has known Emma Swendsen since she was a preteen. She grew up with her parents' boarding and grooming business where we used to take our dogs over a decade ago. As she matured, she joined her older sister in her independent grooming business and regularly helped groom all our dogs. As a college student, she was our first choice to house and pet sit when we traveled. We've always been confident that Emma would provide the best, most loving, most competent care for them in any situation. Her experience with all animals, especially her dedication to animal rescue, has given her the kind of compassion we all want for our pets when we need to be away from them.

Emma Swendsen is a blessing to us. She is trustworthy and stays in touch sending us pictures of our fur babies. Emma has a pleasing personality with a great work ethic but most of all, she loves all animals......
