Your dog, my treat!

Pet care experience

Hello! I love all animals, but dogs have my heart. I can’t wait to meet yours. I am a newer cat parent to a bonded pair! I’m broadening my horizons to care for them too. You can call me El 🐾 (they/them pronouns) I have cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments over the years. My 11 year old Dalmatian mix died last January after a long happy life as a well-loved rescue. I raised and trained her since puppyhood, and miss her dearly. Playing with your pet will certainly make the days brighter. I have experience caring for the needs of older dogs and puppies, and can administer medication no problem. I love to spend time outside with my clients. Long walks in nature, fetch, and zoomie races are some of my favorite dog centered activities. I can take your dog to socialize with other dogs, introduce them to a new body of water, or for a sunny day car ride. I want whatever makes your dog happy to be the center of their experience with me. If it gets messy, no worries. Bath time can be quality/cuddle time too.

We used Elaine for a last minute boarding for our dog Roo and we could not have been happier! Elaine was very attentive to Roo’s needs and made sure he felt comfortable in her home, and we got lots of pictures & updates the whole weekend! We could tell he was very happy and cared for, and I hope we can use Elaine again soon!

Elaine is one of the most caring and responsible humans that I know. They have life long experience caring for & offering lots of love to animals of all kind! I've seen firsthand the deep care Elaine has toward the health and wellbeing of people, pets and nature. Being Elaine's good friend, I know that they can be counted on and trusted to show up when and where you need them. Elaine's kind, compassionate and loving nature make them the ideal sitter for your furry friends!

Elaine is amazing! She gets along with every dog she comes across, whether it be her own pup Chloe or any dog she meets while walking down the street. She exudes a perfect blend of gentle and playful energy and is always attentive to a dog's needs. Elaine is responsible, reliable, and trustworthy, and dogs absolutely adore her!

Availability

I’m hoping to sit dogs whenever I am in the off hours from work. I miss exercising with my dog. I look forward to enjoying the outdoors with yours, with a long early morning walk to avoid the heat of summer, and plenty more exercise from the mid-afternoon to night. I can totally support families who need night time sitters/walkers. I work in schools so I have increased availability for holidays and the summer! I like to cater my care to your dogs schedule as much as possible. If they like sunrise walks I am more than willing to make that happen.
