​

Paws and Claws started when Emily was around 10 years old. It was originally a dog walking service for neighbors where Emily walked and exercised the neighborhood dogs - primarily because her parents were reluctant to get Emily her first dog

​

Since then, Emily has brought the Paws and Claws name back to describe her pet care business, which offers far more than dog walking services.
