Safety, trust & environment

Home sittings and drop ins have been some of the things I have done for friends and their pets. For both home sitting and drop ins I have communicated with the pet parent ahead of time. Whether I have been trusted with a spare key or a door code, I respect the home as if it was a family’s member.

Information Elena C. would like to know about your pet

I like being informed of health or behavioral issues. This does not mean I am not capable of taking the reservation but rather it allows me to move my schedule around in order to provide the best service possible.

A typical day

For fun I can provide various fun activities for pets, ranging from scent activities, playing fetch to snuggling/belly rubs. If the weather is nice and the pets health permits I like going on hikes and exploring the outdoors. I also take into account owners request and accommodate accordingly. The goal is to minimize stress on the pets.

Pet care experience

Pets have become an important part of my adult life and understand their important place in a family. As a pet parent myself, I have been able to apply my experiences with Rover including medical care. I’m very active and enjoy spending time outside as much as possible.

Elena took such wonderful care of our pups while we were away. They were so happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved when we got home. She was communicative, reliable, and gave us so much peace of mind during our trip. We’re very grateful for her care and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

We were so nervous leaving our doggy behind when we went on vacation, because he ordinarily goes everywhere with us. Elena was wonderful in our absence! She took great care of our dog & cat. She took our boy on hikes everyday and even took care of his ears as he was recovering from an ear infection. Not only did she take great care of our pets, she also took great care of our home while we were away. Elena is incredibly trustworthy, caring and compassionate, and I highly recommend her.

Elena was fantastic! She kept in touch with us frequently, providing updates on how our fur babies were doing, which put our minds at ease while we were away on a family trip. Elena took great care of our animals, and it was clear that our fur babies enjoyed her company. We were truly impressed by her level of care. We will definitely request to have Elena back the next time!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
