About: I adore dogs! I have experience with dogs of different breeds and sizes, from their puppyhood to senior years. I also have 9+ years of experience taking care of a dog with idiopathic epilepsy and other health issues. My approach with your dog will emphasize calm, assertive, and kind energy - I will treat your dog like my own! My work schedule is flexible, especially from April - August. My work is close to my home, and I also work from my home a lot. I set my hours. I have leashes, dog beds, gates, and toys. I also have 1 acres of backyard and a car to take your dog to the park.

Elyas did a superb job in looking after my dog and the house! He was diligent about giving Spencer his meds, he played with him and just gave him lots of attention. My house was spotless when I returned. Elyas went above and beyond with looking after everything and I would hire him again in a heartbeat!
