About Eleanor L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I value and rely on open communication when providing your pet with my care. Please be honest with me about what your pet likes and dislikes, what might make them anxious or upset, or if there is anything else I might need to know when caring for your animal. The more I know about your pet(s), the better I can care for them. If I ask you a lot of questions, such as "how does your dog behave around other dogs/kids on walks?" or "is there anywhere your cat doesn't like to be touched?" it's because I want to ensure everyone (both myself and your animal) is happy and safe while in my care. Nothing is too trivial to share so please let me know!
Home
Information Eleanor L. would like to know about your pet
I would appreciate knowing: Personality Behaviors Good/bad with children/other dogs/people/etc. Where they like/dislike being pet Stressors they may have (loud noises/crowds) Anything you can tell me to ensure your dog is happy and safe in my care is important. No detail is too small or too silly to know!
A typical day
If I am house sitting for your dog(s), I am more than happy to take them on long walks to nearby parks or even a trip to the beach or the Blue Hills. For regular dog walks (both 30m + 60m), I will plan a route around your neighborhood on smaller side streets, if possible, to avoid congested or high traffic areas. Please feel free to share your usual route with me or if there is a preferred part of your neighborhood you'd like me to stay within.

Reviews
Eleanor is the best! She has check in on my cat before and this past time she helped with my foster cat. He is very shy and doesn't really like people much, but Eleanor was great with him :)
Eleanor went above and beyond to make the drop-in all around perfection for my dog! She was on time, stayed the full time, handled all of the care items asked and then some. I know from the photos she shared that my dog had the very best time and felt loved and cared for while mom was gone! Will definitely be re-booking with Eleanor!
Will definitely rebook with Eleanor in the future! My cat is not always the best with other people and Eleanor did a great job with her.
Eleanor spent quality time with our cat Seiji at each visit and sent a lot of great photos. She was quick to respond to messages and had a lot of experience with cats. Will book again!
