Happy Pets, Happy Owners

I have always been an animal lover. I have had 4 cats to grow up with throughout my life, being my best friend since I was a baby, to watching me graduate from school. I love still getting to pet sit and see some of them from time to time. I recently moved back to Nashville with my cat, Lucky, and two German Shorthaired Pointers, Scout and Lily. Building a long-lasting, trustworthy relationship with my pet-sitting clients has given me the pleasure to care for some amazing dogs and get to watch them go from playful puppies to sassy seniors. I am very attentive to details, so whatever your paw-baby needs from exercise, medications, or specific diets, I am happy to fulfill their needs. I love taking my dogs on long walks at the park, and my dog Scout will have me throw his ball all day long. My dog Lily is a little bit of a lazy bean, so if your pet needs a snuggle friend, I am here to help. Keeping your mind at ease that your fur-babies are happy and thriving is my top priority, so I frequently message my clients with updates on their pets' eating progress, daily exercise, medications, and any additional needs. Oh, and of course, pictures of their paw-babies !!!

Safety, trust & environment

Rates for House Sitting clients are higher to reflect on current gas prices and multiple travels to and from your home. When house sitting at a clients home I will watch over your fur-baby for 2-3 time periods of the (day and evening). Spending the night at the clients home if needed. When I have to leave your home to let my dogs out, your pet will stay on the pre-set bathroom break schedule max 4 hours. I will take your dogs out for walks if requested for drop in visit and house sitting bookings or I will make sure they get exercise in your home playing with their toys. For my cat clients I will make sure they get their exercise with their toys and they will get fresh food, water, and a clean box each day.

Elena did an amazing job petting for us while we were out of town for a weekend. She gave our dog and cat a lot of attention throughout the stay and kept us updated. She took great care of them. We would definitely recommend her!

Elena is a former neighbor. She was invaluable to me while she was in high school. I traveled a-lot and she cared for my pugnacious and ornery wiener dog. She was the only other person Cinnamon allowed to pet, pick up, walk and feed. For me, that was shocking. Elena was kind, patient and attentive to Cinnamon. She took time to build a trust with Cinnamon. I recommend Elena without hesitation to care for your animal. Feel free to call or write me if you should have any questions.

Elena has been a wonderful caregiver for our sweet dog, Ava, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the peace of mind she’s given us. She took the time to come meet Ava—and me—before the first sitting appointment, and from the start she was professional, courteous, and perfectly on time. During both stays, Elena visited our home twice a day to give Ava her medicine, feed her, and take her on her walks. After every visit, she sent a photo and a thoughtful update about how Ava was doing. Those pictures said it all—Ava looked completely at ease and clearly adored Elena, as if she were already part of our family. We highly recommend Elena to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter. She treated Ava with genuine kindness, and it showed in every interaction.

Elena is a great pet sitter - very caring and responsible, she truly has a gift with animals - I highly recommend her!! We have 3 cats including 1 who is quite old. She has looked after them several times for multiple days at a time and they are always happy, calm, and unstressed when we return. She takes great care of them and takes time to spend time and play with them. She keeps us posted on how they are doing with pictures and frequent texts. I have never worried that she would not show up as planned. Very trustworthy!
