Lone Star Dogs

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Emily Rose. With over 15 years of experience and 8 years in pet care full time, I have had the pleasure of working with over 1000 individual dogs, catering to their unique needs, sizes, and temperaments. My expertise extends beyond simple dog sitting. I spent many years as a teenager working for an Akita rescue where I learned hands on with great mentors. I have spent the majority of the last 10 years offering boarding, daycare, training and in-home care in Austin, TX. I'm well-versed in handling dogs with special needs, behavioral issues, whether they require medication administration, specific dietary restrictions, or extra attention and patience. While I have found success with a balanced training approach when working with my own dogs, I want to assure you that I am fully committed to enforcing and following your preferred training style. Adhering to your established training routines and guidelines, I aim to create a seamless transition for your pup while they are in my care. My Husband, Charlie and our two dogs, Spider (10yrs) and Partner (4mos) just settled back to Austin after a year on the road. My schedule is flexible and I am able to accommodate short term and long term care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member(s) soon!

I have used Emily multiple times and she is absolutely wonderful. It’s scary to leave your fur baby alone and she put our family at ease right away. Super communicative all day long…letting us know when she was on her way and sending cute photos. Would highly recommend her services for your fur babies.

Emily was so fantastic! It’s always nerve wracking have a stranger come take your dog out for the first time but Emily was on time, communicative and took great care of our pup! Well definitley have her back again soon!

Very professional. Great at giving updates. A few things that holds me back from booking her again. During our meet and greet she didn’t try to connect with our dog at all. Also, I paid for an hour walk in the morning and an hour walk in the evening (very expensive) and only got 30 min each time, per her clocking in and out through the app.

Information Emily R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any and ALL of your dog's quirks, special needs or behavioral issues. Knowing your dog's normal routine is a great way to make sure our time together is as comfortable and fun as possible.

A typical day

My typical day with your pup depends on your pup's needs! If you have a lazy older dog who just wants a slow paced walk to smell the roses we'll take a stroll when the weather is nice. If you have a high energy pup that wants to run we will spend as much time as possible getting that energy out! I am always happy to do an outing and take your pup to some of my favorite hiking spots or parks if you are interested in puppy field trips. We will discuss all of the details of what our walk, visits or overnight sitting will look like and customize it to fit your dog's needs. If your pups are dog people like ours are we are always happy to make some play dates happen if that’s something you are interested in!
