Safety, trust & environment

I take the safety of your pet very seriously whether while walking or while in your home/yard. I like having an open line of communication with you regarding your pets' behaviors, health and anything else contributing to your pets' comfort and wellbeing.

Information Eleanor W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs and/or personality challenges. I am very patient and will work with them. I believe that every pet is unique and special and worth my attention and love.

A typical day

I will walk your dog where ever you feel comfortable with me taking him/her. Usually it's within your own neighbor/area. If your dog is used to going outside in your fenced in yard I will play fetch, tug-of-war or whatever he/she likes to play. If your dog/cat just wants pets, scratches or cuddles I can do that too and happily.

I feel a real connection to animals

Pet care experience

I worked at a popular pet store for 17 yrs and was a dog groomer for 11 of them. I worked with all different dog breeds and ages and would clip cats' claws when needed. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. I always get excited meeting new pets and love getting the chance to form a bond with them.

Eleanor is absolutely amazing. Incredibly kind. We had a foster cat that we adopted and then unfortunately had to leave town shortly after. She jumped right in, learned the routine and genuinely loved on our boy. I’m so thankful & HIGHLY recommend!!

Eleanor did a great job with our two kitties. She braved terrible weather to make it on time for a feeding. Reliable and trustworthy.
