Reliable and caring Masters student
Pet care experience
Starting as a child, my family always had animals. From a young age I rode and cared for horses, gaining independence and reliability. Currently, I have three pets (two senior dogs, 10 and 14, and one senior diabetic cat, 14) who I’ve cared for through college and graduate school. Aside from having my own pets, I’ve volunteered with SPCAs and similar organizations since high school. I currently volunteer at a senior and hospice dog rescue in Rhode Island (where I got one of my dogs!)
Reviews
Elena is an extremely responsible pet owner. She has 2 dogs and 1 cat that she takes incredible care of. Her cat is diabetic, and one of her dogs likely has early dementia. Her pets are a lot of work, but Elena loves them very much. She also volunteers at Vintage Pet Rescue, a senior dog rescue in RI.

Safety, trust & environment
I am currently in an apartment and understand the importance of outdoor walking for exercise and enrichment. I am happy to walk or otherwise exercise dogs in any way that is safe and that they enjoy. I also would be happy to play with any toys with both cats and dogs. I have a dog car seat in my car and experience giving medications and under-the-skin injections.
Information Elena D. would like to know about your pet
I have experience with all types of dogs from puppy to senior to special needs. My current animals are all seniors, two with various oral medications and one with injection insulin. Before a walk or visit, I’d want to know any normal behaviors for your pet, any needed medications, any preferences on location of walk, etc.
A typical day
I love to walk dogs and take them to new places for extra enrichment. New smells, toys, and exercise are all things I’m happy to do with any dog.
