Dogs and cats are obsessed with me!
Pet care experience
My name is Eleanor and I have been dogsitting for 8 years. I started by watching my boss's dog whenever he was out of town and suddenly it turned into a thriving business for friends of friends of friends' dogs and more. I love nothing more than playing with dogs and snuggling them. I have experience with every type from puppies to elderly dogs, Pugs to German Shepherds. Even the most skittish rescue dogs love me! I believe I speak their language. I also have experience watching cats, reptiles, and hedgehogs. I never feed dogs human food unless specifically instructed to do so (such as sprinkling cheese on the food of the picky ones). I send lots of pictures and videos as well so that you don't miss them too much while you are away! I offer plenty of walks, playtime, and potty breaks. If your dog doesn’t get along with other dogs, we will avoid them. I always feed pups on time.
Reviews
Eleanor is great! She was so prompt at replying and helped us out on short notice. She took excellent care of our pups and sent pictures daily. I highly recommend Eleanor.
Eleanor was so awesome!!! She made sure my pup was well taken care of and I really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent to me while dog sitting :) i would highly recommend using her and Louie & I would definitely love to have her back. Thank you so much for all of your help!!
Thank you for taking great care of our good girl? It was great knowing that we had a dependable person checking in on her and keeping her company while we were away.
I have a very fearful 8 month old rescue puppy. I was really concerned about leaving him with a stranger, but Eleanor had a way with him and he did great while we were gone for a week. She sent updates, pictures and a video to reassure me that he was thriving. I spent my vacation knowing that my puppy was in good hands. She even offered to water my plants!! I will definitely use Eleanor again when I set off on another adventure.

I can easily crate animals if needed and my apartment is closed in by fences for safety. I can assure you that your pets will not be in danger with me!
Information Eleanor A. would like to know about your pet
I have no preference on breeds. I just need to know how much to feed them and when, where all their stuff is, what commands they know and don't know, and anything else you believe to be important!
A typical day
I love to help stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. We’ll play a bunch of games, go for walks, check out all the smells in the neighborhood, and cuddle at bedtime.
