About Emily
Hi, I’m Emily Lawrey - the face of Exercise and Enrichment with Em. I started this business to help people and their dogs have a fun and fulfilling life together. I can help you build the relationship you want with your dog, whether that is by helping you fulfil your dogs needs with a walk, sharing games and enrichment activities or through some basic training.
I have a background in Veterinary Nursing, have competed a certificate in Dog Psychology, Behaviour & Training and have been an Instructor for the Warragul Dog Obedience Club. I am always looking to grow my training skills with online seminars and continued study.
I have 2 dogs myself and love finding new and fun ways to fulfil their needs and continue to grow our relationship through training. We have tried our hands at lure coursing, obedience, agility and scent work along with spending a lot of time out exploring or trying new tricks or games at home.
❊ Testimonials
We can’t recommend Em highly enough for dog walking and training. Our rescue dog Mishee absolutely adores her, and the bond they’ve built has been so special to watch.
Em has been incredibly patient, understanding, and supportive with both Mishee and me. She has helped build confidence in us both and always works with Mishee using the same words, actions, and approach that I use at home, which has made such a positive difference.
Knowing Mishee is with someone who truly cares for her and understands rescue dogs gives me complete peace of mind. We are so grateful for everything Em has done and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and knowledgeable dog walker and trainer.

I have been using Emily’s dog walking service for about 3 years now and I couldn’t be happier. She is always punctual and has great communication. I have a large breed dog who just adores Emily! I think favourite days of the week are when Emily stops by!

Emily has been looking after our two dogs for the past couple of years, and we couldn’t be happier with her. She is incredibly caring, reliable and trustworthy, and we always know our dogs are in great hands when we’re away.
It’s such a relief being able to go on holiday knowing they’re being well cared for, getting plenty of attention and being treated as if they were her own. Emily has taken the time to get to know both of their personalities and individual needs, which gives us complete peace of mind.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emily to anyone looking for someone they can genuinely trust with their dogs. We’re so grateful to have found her!
