Veterinary-Trained Sitter Who Loves
Hi! I'm Elena, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I have a degree in Veterinary Medicine and experience in canine behavior and handling (kinology), which helps me understand dogs' needs, body language, and personalities. Before moving to the United States, I had two beloved Corgis who were part of my family for many years. Caring for them gave me hands-on experience with daily routines, training, enrichment, grooming, and recognizing signs that a dog may not be feeling well. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where every dog receives individual attention, plenty of affection, and care tailored to their routine. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing on the couch, I'll make sure they feel comfortable and at home. I'm happy to follow your dog's feeding schedule, administer medications if needed, and accommodate any special instructions. You'll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: to treat every dog as if they were my own.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Elena is truly an amazing person and an exceptional pet sitter! Having a veterinary education is a huge plus, so I always feel completely confident leaving Dolly in her care. Dolly absolutely adores her and is always thrilled to see her. It’s such a relief knowing my dog has a completely stress-free experience every single time. I couldn't recommend her more!
Elena was absolutely amazing with my puppy! Right from the start, she asked detailed questions about my pup's routine to make sure they felt completely comfortable and at home. She kept in constant contact with updates while taking my puppy out on great walks, which gave me total peace of mind. Knowing she’s also a professional dog trainer was a huge bonus—her expertise really shines through in how attentive she is. To top it off, she was super punctual and brought my pup back right on schedule. I couldn't ask for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again!
Elena did an amazing job caring for all three of our pets, making sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and happy while we were gone. What really stood out was the quality time she spent with them. She made sure our dog got plenty of attention and playtime, and she took the time to engage with our cats as well, which gave us great peace of mind knowing they weren't just being checked on, but genuinely cared for. Her communication was exceptional throughout our trip. We received detailed updates, photos, and reports that kept us informed and reassured every step of the way. Elena was thorough, professional, and proactive in sharing how everyone was doing, which made it so much easier for us to relax and enjoy our vacation. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and couldn't have asked for a better Rover sitter. We highly recommend Elena and would gladly book her again in the future! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Elena was great with my cat Jack! He’s very social and hates being alone, but because of my work I’ve had to leave him more than usual lately. He was happy and comfortable with Elena, which gave me real peace of mind. She’s kind, caring, and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Jack with her again. Highly recommend!

Schedule
Although I work full-time, caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Every dog staying with me gets at least three walks a day, plenty of playtime, love, and one-on-one attention. I organize my schedule so your pup can maintain their normal routine and feel happy, relaxed, and at home while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
Your dog's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. With my background in Veterinary Medicine and experience in canine behavior, I know how to recognize signs of stress or discomfort and adapt my care to each dog's individual needs. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I never introduce dogs without permission, I always use secure leashes during walks, and I make sure every pet has a calm, clean, and supervised environment. I'll also send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident while you're away.
