Safety, trust & environment

Chloe was the queen of our home. She had her own bed, a blanket on the couch and special food. I was very careful to always anticipate her bathroom needs to keep everything neat and tidy. I would treat your home the same as my own.

Pet Lover Since Birth!!

Pet care experience

I have loved animals since I was a small child. So much so that I wanted to be a veterinarian when I grew up. I started with my first pup, a springer spaniel named Trix, by training and showing him in 4H. We were in many competitions and even the state fair in Salem. I have since had 2 more cats and 3 more dogs. The latest a 55 lb pit bull named Chloe. She was the sweetest dog I have ever owned. She left us at 16 years of age, so I definitely have "elder" care experience. My husband joked that we were her "assisted living care providers", for the last couple of years. I would love to spend time with your pets for just a bit before my next one. The heart needs a little break.

Elaine is a true dog lover with a natural ability to connect with pets, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy on their walks. She’s reliable, punctual, and always goes the extra mile to tailor each walk to the dog’s energy level and needs. Elaine is also attentive to safety, keeping a close eye on her furry friends and staying aware of their surroundings. Her patience and positive attitude make her a joy for dogs and owners alike!

Elaine is like the superhero of pet care—responsible, caring, and a brainiac to boot! Seriously, if you don’t let her look after your pets, you’re missing out. She’s got a PhD in puppy playdates. When it comes to my cane corso Francis, you can bet she is getting all the exercise she needs in a safe and loving environment, like a pet gym with a side of spa treatment! Honestly, I’d trust her with our entire pack. With Elaine, we’ve been so spoiled that the idea of using anyone else feels like suggesting I get a new best friend. Elaine is hands down the best!!
