Safety, trust & environment

I have often pet sit for family or friends and have experience taking care of almost every type of small domestic animals (dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, rabbits, hamsters, fish). I am comfortable giving medications both orally and subcutaneously to dogs and cats. Pet sitting is a great responsibility as I know how much pets mean to their families, which means I take it very seriously and will do everything in my power to ensure your pets are happy and healthy when left in my care.

Information Elaine M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know how to best take care of your pet and any likes or dislikes they have. I am comfortable with all breeds!

A typical day

I love being active with pets, including playing with toys or going for walks or jogs. If your dog is high energy, I would be happy to take them on a run or hike. For older or less active dogs, I'm just as happy to go for a stroll and smell the flowers!

Pets are the best!!

Pet care experience

As the daughter of a veterinarian, I have grown up around pets my entire life and love being around animals! I would often accompany my mom to work and began working as a kennel girl then technician in high school and through college. Though I don't currently have any pets of my own, I love taking care of other peoples pets and enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds!
