Safety, trust & environment

I live in a house in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced in backyard. I have 2 kitties but I have space to keep them separate from your furkids if need be. I also have a 2-year-old corgi who stays crated when we aren’t home (he tears up everything in sight) and he LOVES to play with other doggies.

Information Elana W. would like to know about your pet

I’ve taken care of senior dogs, dogs who can’t walk, dogs who are very finicky and/or scared, etc. Same for cats. As long as I have the information and tools I need to care for your pet, I’m totally able to meet those needs. Just let me know ahead of time!

A typical day

Your pup and I can do whatever they’re into really. They like playing with toys outside in a fenced in backyard? Sounds great! They want to go for a nice long walk in a quiet neighborhood? Let’s do it! They want to sit in the couch and snuggle? I’d love to!! I live very close to Pendleton King Park, which has a dog park- one section for small dogs, and a section for big dogs. So we have options for activities!!

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for animals my whole life, but my professional experience includes 3 years as a kennel tech at a boarding facility, the last of which I spent as Kennel Manager. I’ve cared for nearly all breeds of dogs, cats of all temperaments, rats, birds, ferrets, bunnies, turtles, bearded dragons, and more. I love all animals! I have taken multiple courses in pet first aid, and I am also pet CPR certified. I’m experienced in caring for elderly/disabled pets, and well as administering medications such as injectables, oral medicines, eye drops, etc. I worked as social media manager at my kennel job, I absolutely LOVE taking pics/vids of pets, so you will have plenty of content of your babies while they are in my care. Please let me know how I can care for your pet!!

Elana is amazing!! She’s checked in on my cat a few times now and is so friendly and really spends her time with your pets! She gives really good updates and sends all the pictures to keep you updated.

Elana was amazing. She made sure to take great care of my cat while I was away for a couple weeks. She sent me updates with pictures and notes of the visit, letting me know how things went. She was always so communicative, and I’m absolutely going back to her when I need a cat sitter. 10/10!

Elana is very professional and caring. We were very fortunate to have booked her last minute before a holiday weekend. She was promt with all her visits, sent us loads of pictures of her snuggling and playing with our babies each time, and we had no concerns they were in good hands. Elana kept great communication as well. We won't hesitate to ask her to sit for us again. Highly recommend!!
