That's not what en emergency contact is though, is it?

nope….
however, “in case of emergency, i have a pet at home alone”: is pretty important….
e.g. i’m adding my pet to my list of emergency contacts on my phone now… they’ll figure it out.

Oh, okay, that makes sense. We thought you meant more like a will and the dog gets the money.

No, it's someone you or someone/somemany contacts in case you're in an emergency, not someone in a will necessarily, nor who needs help in an emergency from you necessarily either.
