Honest, loving sitter

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs my whole life among many other animals. My dog now, Boo is a senior dog and I love him more than anything. I’ve had him since I was a teen and have taken him EVERYWHERE with me. As we are both getting older, we have become more attached at the hip than ever. I grew up taking care of our horses, goats, peacocks, chickens, cats, and of course our dogs. I understand how scary it is to leave faith in a stranger that they will treat your child as you would, supplying enough love, attention, safety, and of course exercise. As I am a neurotic dog mom myself, I can assure you your dog will be kept safe in my care and of course given tons of love while you are away.

If there's one thing that can make or break a trip away from home, it's knowing that your beloved pets and cherished house are in capable hands. Thankfully, with Elana as our pet and house sitter, we can confidently say that our worries are put to rest every time we leave town. Elana isn't just your average sitter; she's a gem in the realm of pet and house care. From the moment we first engaged her services, it was evident that she approached her job with a level of dedication and passion that's truly commendable. One of the most reassuring aspects of having Elana look after our home and pets is her unwavering reliability. We can always count on her to be punctual, attentive, and thorough in her duties. Whether it's feeding our furry friends, taking them for walks, or simply providing them with the love and attention they crave, Elana goes above and beyond to ensure their well-being. But Elana's commitment extends beyond the care of our pets; she also takes immaculate care of our house. Coming home to a clean and tidy living space is an absolute blessing, especially after a long journey. It's clear that Elana treats our home with the same respect and consideration as she does her own. What truly sets Elana apart, however, is her thoughtful gesture of providing regular updates and photos of our pets throughout the day. These little snapshots into our pets' lives not only bring a smile to our faces but also offer invaluable peace of mind while we're away. Knowing that our furry companions are happy and content under Elana's care makes our travels all the more enjoyable and stress-free. In essence, Elana is more than just a pet and house sitter; she's a lifeline for us whenever we're away from home. Her professionalism, reliability, and genuine affection for our pets and home make her an indispensable part of our lives. We wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking peace of mind and exceptional care for their beloved pets and home. Thank you, Elana, for being truly awesome!

Elana did an amazing job with the dog, cat and the house. We are so happy we found her on Rover and are hoping for many future stays. Elana is highly recommended!

Information Elana S. would like to know about your pet

If they are friendly with other dogs. The main perk of Rover personally, is being able to bring my own dog along. If the dog Im sitting isn’t good with others I will most likely pass as I do not want to leave my own dog alone to go care for others.

A typical day

I love playing fetch with dogs that enjoy it. I really like coming up with mental stimulation activities as well, such as a scavenger hunt in the yard or homemade puzzle toys. We love going on walks at a slow pace so the dogs can enjoy all the smells and stimulate that brain!
