Pet care experience

Caring nurse

My name is Elaine. At present I work as a District Nurse. I am semi retired. I have experience of house sitting on another site. I have done over 30, locally and all over the UK. Reviews shown below. 
I have 3 grown up children in their 20's and 30's. All are independent and live in various parts on the UK. I live alone and work as a District Nurse. Over the years as a family, and when I was growing up I have had several dogs, cats and small animals that have gone with age.
My Son works as a professional dog walker, and I help him when I have free time. I love the sea and the countryside. I love walking. To have a companion when I am experiencing new places would be lovely.
Last year I spent 6 months working on the Shetland Islands and Orkney as an Island Nurse. I loves this so much. 
I love the water, sea, lakes, and like to wild swim.
I love the Scottish islands so much.

Elaine was a brilliant help, coming at very short notice to look after our dog! Very speedy replying and looked after Charlie exceptionally well, thank you very much :)

Great sitter. Well organised visiting ahead of our booking to familiarise herself with the situation. She was really caring for the dogs, cats and home. Very easy communication. Recommended.

I found Elaine to be a lovely person. Prompt, approachable and friendly. My dogs certainly were friendly with her and she looked after them and my home well. I would have no hesitation in recommending this lovely lady to look after your dogs at any time. Thank you, Elaine x

Elaine was wonderful- reliable, trustworthy, confident, great with our dog, ( understood all her ‘issues’ ) a good communicator, friendly, and chatty. Altogether a great first experience with Rover. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again and we recommend her services to others.

Elaine was an excellent sitter and bonded immediately with our 2 Border Collies Jess and Isla. They were looked after for 3 nights in our own home and Elaine gave us reports of their progress. We would highly recommend Elaine as she is the perfect sitter for us. Thanks Elaine, we will see you again.
