Elena is fantastic! She pays so much attention to our border collie Lucy during her visits. Lucy’s ears actually perk up when I mention to her that Elena is coming to visit her that day 😂😂😂

Elena was great and even got our shy cat to come out for some pets! Would recommend her to any friend in need of a drop in visit for their cats.

I have yet to find someone has diligent and principled as Elena. She will care for your dog as if they were her own. I was very impressed with her level of care and communication, and plan to book her many more times in the future. ? I’ve been using Rover for a while now and haven’t felt this comfortable with any of the sitters until she cared for my Misu ??‍❄️. 12/10 would recommend. ☺️

Safety, trust & environment

I determine how to treat each pet based on their personality and how comfortable they are with me. Whenever I meet a new friend I make sure not to startle them or get them too excited, as they get used to my presence. I treat each pet and their home with respect, as I would my own! Outdoor cameras are great for security but I will ask prior to the sitting that all INDOOR cameras be disconnected for my privacy and safety thank you.

Information Elena C. would like to know about your pet

I carry low calorie training treats with me but if your dog has a special diet please let me know. Also, it’s important for me to know if they have any medical issues like respiratory problems, or if walking too much or too fast could be dangerous for them. Please let me know if your dog is an escape artist or a counter surfer (steals food). I never give human food to pets unless specified otherwise. Please be aware I am not a professional dog trainer. If your dog is especially aggressive or fearful, I recommend seeing a trainer.

A typical day

When walking or sitting pets I make sure to stay close to their home so as to not venture in an area you are uncomfortable with or in case of emergency. I bring dog toys and treats with me so your pet is entertained and stimulated! I have some games I like to play that are great for keeping your pet entertained and stimulated. I LOVE taking dogs to the dog park! My go to is Rosedale dog park, its beautiful and all the dogs there are very friendly. I do carry a dog horn with me at all times just in case. I will ask your permission before taking your dog anywhere. You can also request a park visit outside of sittings, again message me for more info!

I’m a full time pet caregiver and certified pet groomer, my day consists of making sure your puppy or kitty gets enough food, exercise and love. I also accept house-call grooming requests, you can come back home to a fluffy and clean pet! I run a Pet Care and Grooming Business, it is my full time job and main source of income. Please only submit a sitting request if you have solid dates and are serious about scheduling a sitting with me thank you.
