Pet care experience
Caring for pets like they're my own
I've been a pet owner (dogs and cats) for more than 20 years. My current dogs are both rescues and each comes with their own unique personality, so I'm open to the quirks of lots of different pets. When I'm caring for your pet, they will be my only focus, and I can help with medications and whatever training you're working on with your pet family members!

Safety, trust & environment
I am glad to maintain whatever routines your pet is used to, and while I'm staying at your home, I will be happy to maintain their walks, meals, snacks, medications, games, etc. I know how important trust is when inviting somebody into your home, so please feel free to share any questions you have with me.
Ratings and reviews
Elaine was wonderful and communicated so well providing updates while away. My dogs can be nervous at first and Elaine had no troubles getting to know them quickly. I hope she will allow me to use her again in the future.
Elaine has been the best pet sitter for many years. She’s punctual, reliable, and very patient with our shy dog. She follows instructions about the routine and is very neat. Great communication and photo updates. I never worried when Elaine cared for our girl. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
I am delighted to provide this testimonial for Elaine. She has cared for my 10-year-old German Shepherd, Ruby, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. As anyone who knows German Shepherds can appreciate, they are intelligent, sensitive, and often have very specific routines and preferences. My dog is a member of our family and, quite honestly, is a bit of a princess. Because of that, I am very selective about who I trust with her care. Elaine has consistently gone above and beyond to ensure that Ruby feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in her care. She is attentive to her needs, patient with her personality, and genuinely enjoys spending time with her. It is clear that she treats every animal as if it were her own. One of the things I value most is the peace of mind I have when Elaine is caring for my dog. I know that Ruby will receive excellent attention, plenty of affection, and thoughtful care. It is not easy to find someone you trust completely in your home, but I have absolute confidence in her. I would not hesitate to recommend Elaine to anyone seeking a reliable, responsible, and compassionate pet sitter. Any pet owner would be fortunate to have her care for their furry family member.
Elaine is a lovely, responsible, creative adult who will give your pets the time, love, and care they need. Your pets will be happy to visit with Elaine and will request her services time after time!

Schedule
I'm newly retired, so I have time and flexibility to care for your pets! Just let me know what you are looking for and we'll make it work! I can walk dogs during the day or evening, and overnight house sitting with pets is right up my alley. I'll be happy to treat your pets like family.
