Pet care experience
I have had dogs my entire life and have always helped take care of them. I have been dogsitting for friends and neighbors for years, and have volunteered caring for dogs at the SPCA of Wake County. I love to walk dogs and play with them. I enjoy spending time with them. We have a pitbull and a pit/lab at home, and I even use Gracie the pitbull as a pillow sometimes! I've taken care of senior dogs, and dogs that were recovering from operations, who needed special care like restricted activities and daily medications. I have a full-time job this summer so I am not available as much Monday-Friday 8-5, but I am probably here on the weekends! I can also stay overnight with your dog or dogs. They will get lots of attention and walks and love from me!
Reviews
Elise sent an adequate number of updates and pictures which I appreciated (hence the two stars). However, my dog (who she knew should not be left unsupervised) at some point during the stay was able to get to the mattress topper on my bed and ate a chunk of it. Elise did not inform me of this as she said she didn’t realize what happened, and I had to find out about it on my own after I got home. Thankfully, she seems to be passing it but this could have resulted in surgery if it became a blockage in her intestine. Elise needs to work on her observational And communication skills before I would allow her to watch my animals again.
Elise did a wonderful job looking after my puppy! She was very informative with my daily rover card and took the cutest pictures!
Elise took good care of our pets. She was even able to give our cat his medicine which can be a challenge even for us. We received regular updates and pictures from her as well.
Elise was just wonderful taking care of our pups! We had never used this service before and my fiance and I were very pleased with this experience! She sent pictures and gave us updates on how they were doing and took the time to hang out and love them! One of our pups was taking a daily antibiotics while we were gone and she took care of giving that as well! Would definitely ask her to come back!

Information Elise P. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know what the dog likes and what it needs. I'd like to know what the dog doesn't like. I'd like to know any bad habits (like pulling on leash or fighting with other dogs or disliking cats) I love all dogs - very small to extra large. We currently have a pitbull and a pit/lab mix, and I appreciate them a lot.
A typical day
I can walk your dog or dogs in your neighborhood, in local parks, or take them to dog parks, depending on what works best for the dog. I am also content to stay in one place with the dog on my lap.
