Pet care experience

Husky owner. Period

I provide attentive, reliable care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from high-energy 90-pound Belgian Malinois to sweet 10-pound senior Shih-Tzus. Working with dogs is a major part of my daily life, and I am confident handling everything from active pups who need structured exercise to senior dogs who require patience and gentle support. I currently work at a professional dog training facility, where I walk, handle, and care for dogs every day. This experience has given me strong skills in reading canine body language, managing different energy levels, and maintaining safe, structured routines. I am comfortable following training plans and reinforcing positive behaviors to ensure consistency while your dog is in my care. I am also a proud rescue dog owner. My Husky mix has been my sidekick for the past two years, and caring for her has strengthened my understanding of consistency, positive reinforcement, and building trust. No task is too big or too small when it comes to your pet’s well-being. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, medication administration, or simply companionship, I approach every visit with responsibility, attentiveness, and genuine care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I will treat your dog as if they were my own and ensure you feel confident and at ease while they are in my care.

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow any directions you provide exactly as provided. I know some dogs can be known to escape when owners are gone and your pet will be kept under watchful eye the whole time. There will be plenty of love given to your furry loved one.

We were hesitant at first for ANYONE to watch our girls since this was our first time using Rover. When we did a meet and greet, we wanted the girls to trust the person they would be seeing for a few days. We had our doggy cam and we saw how happy they would be with Elena at times playing and getting hugs. The pictures proved they enjoyed her presence and were being taken care of. We were happy with the effort and care she gave for our girls as a doggy lover and would book Elena again for future trips again.
