Pet care experience
Loving, Attentive Care for Your Pup
I rescued my own 70lb husky–shepherd mix in 2023 and have hands-on experience with both 1:1 trainers and group classes, focusing on socialization, behavior, and trick training. That journey has given me strong skills with large, energetic dogs, reading body language, reinforcing calm behavior, and maintaining structure and routine. Before having my own dog, friends and neighbors regularly trusted me to care for their dogs in my home overnight, including dachshunds, spaniels, beagles, coonhounds, greyhounds, border collies, vizslas and cavapoos. I currently have three regular dogs that I look after when friends go away on vacation, and my dog loves the extra company! I’ve grown up around family dogs and truly understand the human–dog bond, offering patient, loving, and attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs.

Ratings and reviews
The dogs looked like they were right at home, plenty of pictures, and a very cozy play companion in Bear! Will be rebooking again.
Gus had a wonderful stay with Ellie and Bear! We got daily updates and cute photos of Bear and Gus. Ellie was great with Gus's reactivity on walks. We would love to have him stay again!
My pup had a lovely stay with Elenor. She sent lots of sweet pictures and was very communicative. Absolutely will book again!
Ellie was so patient with my very shy dog. She had excellent communication as well. We’d be happy to book with her again.
Gus loved walking with Eleanor when we were away for a day trip! Easy to communicate with and got great photo updates :)
Eleanor and Bear were great friends to my dog Momo while I was gone. Eleanor sent me updates and pictures of Momo and Bear playing every day - allowed me to rest easy on my trip!

Schedule
I work in tech with flexible hours and a hybrid schedule. I’m usually in the office Tuesday–Thursday, but only 20–30 minutes from home and can easily pop back if needed. I work from home the rest of the week, allowing plenty of time for walks, play, feeding, and companionship. I live just a 7-minute walk from Green Lake and regularly walk or run there with my own dog. Weekends are active and outdoorsy, including longer walks and local hikes—perfect for dogs who enjoy exercise and adventure.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a detached townhouse with a small, fully fenced yard that’s ideal for frequent potty breaks and relaxed outdoor time. Your dog will share the home with my friendly, well-socialized 2-year-old dog Bear who loves having company. I’m experienced with both large and small breeds and always prioritize structured, and attentive care. I’m happy to follow your dog’s routine closely and can easily crate your dog if needed for comfort or safety. My home is a calm, loving, and dog-focused environment.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day is a great balance of exercise, enrichment, and relaxation. We’ll start with a morning sniffy walk (often around Green Lake or surrounding neighborhoods), followed by breakfast and some calm downtime. Throughout the day, I mix in playtime and simple mental enrichment like training refreshers, puzzle toys, or enrichment chews, depending on your dog’s energy and preferences. Afternoons include snoozes, backyard potty breaks and lots of companionship while I’m working from home. Evenings are for a longer walk or run, dinner, and cozy wind-down time with cuddles on the sofa.
