teacher looking for pup love

Pet care experience

I am a high school Spanish teacher looking to get in touch with my dog loving roots over the summer before school starts up again! I grew up with dogs (a Bassett Hound, a pit mix, and a lab terrier mix over the years), but haven’t been able to have a dog of my own yet. I am located near the Rittenhouse/Grad Hospital area, and am willing to travel between the rivers to pets who need care! I have one small cat (Lola!) in my home, so I can provide the following services: House sitting: I am an animal lover, a gardener and a rule follower! Provide a desired schedule for your home and I will do my best to make it as if you never left. Drop in care: When I come by to feed/let animals out for bathroom breaks, I would love to play and snuggle too :) Dog walks: In addition to walking dogs, I would also be open to light runs with them if it is your preference! I ran cross Country and track in college, and can keep up with most dogs ;) 'Day Care': If we can arrange a prior meetup with my cat, I would be open to hosting small dogs or any cat that get along with other animals in my apartment with my two roommates (my boyfriend and my sister).

Elaine was attentive and patient with our timid dog. We felt at ease and enjoyed the picture updates from the walk!

Elaine is fantastic and I highly recommend! I have used her a few times now and I know my dog is in great hands when I’m away. My pup is a lovebug and needs a lot of attention.. and I know she provides it!

Elaine is more than I could ever ask for. Book her! I left my yorkie for the first time ever and he was cared for so well. I came back to my home looking better than I left it. She texted me daily updates and photos and when I came home she had documented daily notes about their day. Wouldn’t think twice about booking Elaine.

Information Elaine E. would like to know about your pet

I fostered a dog who was deaf in high school, and being a part of his life was a rewarding experience. Beyond that I don’t know much, but am happy to follow any procedures/training/exercises/regiment your doggo needs

A typical day

I start my day with a run and am always happy to bring a partner along—whether dog or human. I love to relax but do get pretty restless if I’m sitting for too long, so intermittent activity is welcome! Cuddles to finish out the day of course. I live very close by to the dog park on Spruce, and always love to get in there as a participant!
