Pet care experience

Lifelong Animal Lover 🐾

Growing up with five cats, caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets, and I genuinely love creating a calm, safe, and affectionate environment where animals feel comfortable and loved. About the 10 years ago, I completely fell in love with dogs as well, thanks to my partner’s rescue from Mexico—a 100-pound Golden Retriever/Labrador mix with a huge personality and an even bigger heart. I loved spending time with him on long walks (sometimes up to two hours!), playing, cuddling, and making sure he stayed happy, healthy, and active. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pet enjoys outdoor adventures, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with good company, I’m happy to tailor my care to their unique needs and routine. Professionally, I work in workforce development for a nonprofit organization. My role is primarily remote and offers a flexible schedule, which means I can provide plenty of attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I would love to welcome your dog or cat into my home and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is for both you and your pet to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in loving, reliable hands.

Elena was wonderful with our dog, Toby. We usually use family/friends as sitters so we were very nervous using someone new. Elena was so responsive, sent lots of updates and pictures, and went above and beyond when circumstances changed. Most of all Toby was happy and loved his time with Elena. So glad we found her!

This was a our first time boarding our dog Millie and everything went smoothly with Elena. Elena met with us beforehand so Millie could get to know her, took Millie on plenty of walks, and sent us lots of pictures of Millie. Overall I would highly recommend Elena.

Elena was SO attentive to Iggy and spoiled him with so many walks and trips to the dog park. She was great about updating us on how he was doing and we could tell that Iggy had a great weekend with her. Would highly recommend!!

Schedule

I have a flexible schedule and can plan most days around pet care responsibilities. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and check-ins fit naturally into my routine. I am organized, reliable, and make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and consistency throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends when needed.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s habits, preferences, and routines before care begins. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I maintain a clean environment, secure doors and outdoor spaces, avoid unsafe interactions, and provide attentive supervision. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, relaxed, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.
