Meet the Founder

Emma Louise

Veterinary Technician and Certified Trainer with 15+ years of experience in animal care and volunteering at shelters — I’ve seen it all!

High level of experience with many animals: elderly, medication dependent, anxious, reactive, behavioral, and more. Care focusing on bonding, enriching play time, cuddles, and treats! An added bonus, utilizing my extraordinary ability to plan ahead and navigate New York City chaos (Bonus: avoiding those “sidewalk snacks”)!

I take pride in caring for all my pet clients as they are my own and curating their care based on personality and specific needs!

XOXO, EL
