My name is Elena and I am a young professional working at an education nonprofit in Boston. I have been an animal lover my entire life; from participating in 4H at my town’s local farm where I cared for numerous types of animals, horseback riding, caring for my family’s parakeets and serving as an honorary god mother to my best friend’s 3-year old English Cocker Spaniel. Most importantly, I am a passionate dog lover and I have been told by countless people that dogs feel safe and happy with me and that I have excellent instincts. I will go above and beyond in each and every walk, including taking time to earn a dog’s trust and bond before starting a walk, taking thoughtful photos and videos throughout the walk, writing detailed, engaging report cards and ensuring the dog is as comfortable as possible before I leave. Finally, I am outgoing, friendly, easy going and highly communicative and responsible.
