Genuine, calm, & loving pet sitter

Pet care experience

My first job was a dog walker. During high school and college I volunteered at the local humane society. I currently am a full time therapist and I lost my beloved golden retriever after having cancer. My heart is huge and I love being around animals and especially dogs. I have a lot of love to give. I have an enormous amount of experience with pet sitting and walking dogs since the age of 6.

Elena took great care of Derby in my home the week I was away. It is clear she has a great way with dogs and she was a wonderful guest. A week is a long time to be away and she kept me updated with texts and pictures throughout the week. I would highly recommend Elena and hope she's available next time I need a pet sitter :) Thanks, Elena!

Elena was extremely communicative and kind! She followed the care guidance for our two dogs and made me feel comfortable having her in our home.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. I want to respect the owner way of training for their dogs and rules surrounding the dogs.

I currently work in office from 7:30am-3:30pm as a therapist. When I wasn’t home my family took care of my golden. My golden was never alone and had lots of freedom outside, and had lots of walks and treats throughout the day. I made sure that my animal wasn’t alone for very long and my choices were surrounded my animal.
