Pet care experience

I have years of experience caring for a variety of animals, from spunky Pekingese to endangered lemurs! I currently have a curious but skittish cattle dog mix named Henry who has taught me so much about the power of positive reinforcement, force free training, and enrichment. Treats, praise, toys, or play — whatever your dog loves, we’ll bring with us! SF has a great variety of parks, walking routes, and play areas — all of which I’d love to explore with your pup! I also have a long lead we can use as we work towards a reliable recall without you. If you’re looking for a patient, empathetic walker who will always advocate for your dog’s needs, please say hi! I can’t wait to meet you both.

Wow. Elaine is a such a gentle and loving caretaker. PERFECT for uneasy and anxious puppies. She offers a welcoming aura and takes the time to establish a baselineof trust before springing into action. She's Coreys first pet sitter and the only one I'll trust in SF. Thank you for your kindness and love Elaine.

She was amazing! Penny loves hanging with her and she sent me a ton of pictures and updated during my trip. She is super sweet and I will be sure to use her again

Information Elaine S. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences - I love them all, big or small! I like to know age, special needs, if poops will be unusual (so I can be prepared), as well as level of sociability so I can avoid other dogs and people if needed.

A typical day

Walking through the Panhandle and into GGP is always a crowd favorite! Lots of smells, big patches of grass, and peaceful. We’ll play fetch and tug as we go, stopping for water and treat breaks to reinforce all the hard training you’re doing at home!
