It’s not a hobby it’s a lifestyle

Pet care experience

I have been working with animals since I was 10 years old. I work at an animal hospital and foster kittens frequently. I do a lot of kennel work and grooming so I have a lot of experience. I am the go to person that everyone calls for their pet needs in my family

Elena is a very caring person when it comes to animals, you can always tell that it’s a true passion of hers to care for them. She’s always my go to person if I need help caring for my 2 dogs.

Elena is one of the most caring, giving, pet lover that I know!!! Anytime I have any issue with my dogs she is my goto person! She is always willing to help and even comes straight to our house to help figure out what might be going on with our furbabies. I can promise you that you won’t be disappointed with anything she can help you with when it comes to your furbabies❤️

Safety, trust & environment

I practice fear free animal visits so make sure the dog is completely comfortable and love to keep them in their routine so that the experience goes as smooth as possible for the pet. I have found the positive reinforcement and fear free practices are the best method especially for our nervous nellies who have a bit more trouble adjusting to new people around, I always stay stocked with high quality rewards and tons of fun.

Information Elena D. would like to know about your pet

Most pets function off of a certain routine, this will help to minimize any stress of being thrown off of said routine. That is most important information you could give me. Next would definitely be any triggers that could instill fear or anxiety that way we can keep away from those. I want to know what makes your dog the most happy so that we can really bond and have a special time together!

A typical day

Dogs love enrichment! I have a cattle dog and boy is she high energy. Over the years we have found so many different enrichment activities for those rainy days or just in between our walks, I typically will bring some enrichment activities to make sure your pup is as happy as possible!

I make sure the pets have priority over my daily routine. I have pretty much open availability and am willing to work with whatever schedule makes you and your baby the most comfortable. I do work a 9-5 job so between those hours I will be unavailable but can accommodate anything in between
