Lifelong lover of pets of all kinds

Pet care experience

I have owned and cared for dogs all my life. I have an educational background in animal behavior. I love meeting new animals and learning about their individual quirks. I have cared for senior and special needs dogs.

Elena took great care of my dog while I was gone! She was very responsive and kept me updated throughout. It's always hard leaving Cora for any length of time (especially with someone new) but Cora loved her at the meet and greet and Elena really helped ease my mind while I was gone! Thank you!!

Elena has dog sat for us on three different occasions and has done an excellent job each time. After trips of up to 12 days, we have we come home to a happy, well cared for dog and a well maintained house. I don't casually ask someone to live in our house and take care of our dog for extended periods of time--I knew I could trust Elena after a friend who has known her for several years recommended her to me. I can tell that Elena really cares about my dog--she calls when she has questions so that she can form a good relationship with the dog. I wholeheartedly recommend her to take care of your pets and your house.

Elena has cared for my senior cat on multiple occasions since I moved to the area six years ago. It’s difficult for me to leave my most beloved senior cat, but I always knew he would receive the care and attention he deserves when Elena was his caregiver. She understands the importance of not only providing food on schedule, but also the time for play and social interaction. She happily provided overnights upon request, and would otherwise take the time to interact, play and make sure my kitty knew he had not been abandoned. You can count on Elena to go the extra mile and make sure your animal is being cared for responsibly. Her genuine love of animals will extend to your animal, giving you peace of mind to leave them in her gentle care, with one less thing to worry about while you’re out of town or at work.

Elena has done a great job for our small, anxious dog. We've used her several times when we've been out-of-town to walk him and to stay overnight in our house. Elena is responsible, reliable, and trustworthy. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and cats and I highly recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

I like to have a meet and greet prior to scheduling a booking. I also like to have owner instructions in writing, and I follow them carefully. I pay attention to animal behavior to best serve their needs. My goal is to meet their needs and make them as happy as I can (without over-treating).

Information Elena C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pets have a normal routine, any special needs, or personal quirks. Also, I would like to know if I need to be cautious when walking dogs due to your dog's fear, aggression, or for any other reason.

A typical day

I try to follow the animals' accustomed routine. I'll tailor the amount of play, cuddles, walks, and quiet time based on an animal's personality, interests, attitude, and expectations.

I'm generally able to fit my schedule around pet care. However, I will not accept bookings that require me to travel after dark, and I do have a cat at home, so I will be unable to stay on site 24/7.
