I’m working part time so I have a good amount of extra time on my hands; I’d love to spend that time taking care of people’s pet(s) while they’re away and need care!

Safety, trust & environment

I aim to keep things as consistent and stress-free for your pet(s) as possible. I follow feeding and care instructions closely, give lots of attention (or space, depending on the pet), and always prioritize safety. I’m detail-oriented and respectful of your home and your pet’s routines.

Information Eleanor S. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know about your pet’s routine, health needs, and any specific likes or dislikes. This helps me provide the best possible care and ensures your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away.

A typical day

I like to let them set the pace! For cuddlier pets, I’m happy to provide plenty of pets, brushing, or lap time. My goal is always to match their energy level so they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for.

Pet care experience

Thanks for checking out my profile! I’ve been petsitting through Rover for about a year now and also have prior experience through Trusted Housesitters, as well as a lifetime of caring for animals. My family has two 16-year-old cats (Callie and August) who I’ve cared for since they were kittens, so I’m comfortable with older pets. I’m communicative, patient, and reliable when it comes to daily life and especially pets I care for. I’m happy to follow any and all instructions you may provide to me in our “meet and greet” to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

This is the second time Eleanor has watched the kitties!! She is so attentive with them and ensures everything is as they need it. The cats are so comfortable wit her! Eleanor also saved me when the roof above litter room decided to leak while I was gone - she ensured the water was taken care of and arranged everything so that it minimized any impact until I arrived home that evening - so thankful!

Eleanor was great with our three cats! She was great at communicating and handled them each having a different diet. We'd absolutely leave the pets with her again.

Eleanor did such an amazing job caring for the cats and the house while I was away for a week! The cats clearly trusted her and I loved the photos/check-ins I would get - really appreciate it so much!

Eleanor took great care of our two cats and our house while we were away for a week. Our kitties were happy, our house was clean, and Eleanor was responsive, attentive to details and flexible. It is apparent that Eleanor has a real passion for cats. We would gladly hire Eleanor again for when we travel.
