Hello there! I am back again to Pawshake. My name is Emerson and I am so excited to meet you and your fur family. A bit about me, I am a nontraditional veterinary student going in my final year of my graduate entry, veterinary program at UCD. I have a degree in Animal science and experience working as a veterinary assistant in the USA.

Back in the states, I have two cats and a dog. I have some personal experience with puppy training and trained my standard poodle to complete service tasks. I am a very respectful sitter and will best fit with a family looking for someone very patient, who utilises alot of positive reinforcement. I love all kinds of walks - whether I am taking a "sniffy walk" and enjoying the scenery with older dogs or keeping a stronger pace with more athletic animals. I am available to help with more reactive animals - a brief "Meet and Greet" is always necessary to ensure an adequate fit for all pets I watch!

Depending on your location, I might have more flexible daytime availability during the work week. However, if the commute is longer than 15 minutes via bus from where Im at, I likely will be unavailable to attend during the day. Feel free to reach out to confirm my availability.

Also, I am an excellent fit for LGBTQ families/allies.
