Pet care experience
I've been called a "dog whisperer"
Hi! My name is Elena, and I’m a professional dog groomer and dog lover. I have 10 years of experience working with dogs in daycare, boarding, grooming, training, and rescue/shelter environments. I’m passionate about providing top-notch care for your furry friends while they stay with me. My wife (Cindy N. can also be found on Rover) has been in the pet care industry for 12 years. She works from home full-time, so your dog will always have someone around. We both have experience administering medications and are trained in dog first aid to ensure your pup’s safety and well-being at all times. I look forward to giving your dog a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience while you're away!

Ratings and reviews
Elena did an amazing job with my very energetic pup and I had an overall very positive experience using her daycare service! I could definitely tell Birdie was comfortable and having a fun time in the pictures and updates Elena sent. She had a great time playing with her pup and Birdie was exhausted by the time we got home, which was great! I’m so glad we found Elena and would 100% recommend her. We’ll definitely be using her services again!
I am so grateful for Taylor and her dog sitting service! Sammy had such a fun time with her dogs and she kept me very updated on all that Sammy did. I needed her to administer medication during one of his meals and Taylor ensured he ate. Sammy was tired and happy when I returned to pick him up. :) absolutely using her again!

Schedule
My wife and I own a pet grooming salon. We both have 10+ years of pet experience. She works from home full-time, so your dog will never be left alone for long periods of time. On the days I'm at work, my wife is here to provide companionship and attention to your pup. Whether it’s midday potty breaks, playtime, or simply relaxing, there will always be someone around to care for your dog. This flexible schedule allows me to provide a balanced and attentive environment for your pet while you're away!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
At my home, I treat every pet as if they were my own. For safety and comfort, we crate or pen all dogs during meal times and at night to ensure they have a secure, quiet space to rest. Water is always available to them, and I make sure to give regular bathroom breaks every few hours, so they feel comfortable and well-cared for. I prioritize each pet’s well-being and strive to create a safe, cozy environment where they can relax and enjoy their time with us.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day at my home will be a little different depending on the pups! We begin every morning with a potty break before breakfast. After they’ve eaten, we take them outside again for some fresh air. For the more energetic pups, we can set up a pup puzzle, play with some toys in the yard, or do some training exercises to burn off some energy. Midday is usually nap time for the pups, or we all relax together and lounge on the couch. Throughout the day, we keep toys out so they can play and entertain themselves whenever they like. We wrap up the day with another potty break before dinner, and if there’s still energy to burn, we’ll play in the yard with a toy, ball, or puzzle. At night, we tuck them into their crates with a cozy bed and blanket (we have extras if needed) for a peaceful night’s rest. Each pup will get all the individual attention they need to feel comfortable and cared for throughout the day.

- To ensure I provide the best care possible for your pup, it’s helpful to know a few important details ahead of time. Please let me know if your dog has any dietary restrictions or special feeding instructions, medical needs, or medications I should be aware of. It’s also important to know if your pup has any allergies or sensitivities, we’ll only feed what you provide, but I always want to be aware. I will definitely need to know if they are crate trained. I’d also love to know if they have any specific bedtime routines. Please share any behavioral preferences, such as how social your pup is with other dogs or if there are any triggers or fears I should be mindful of. The more information you provide, the better I can create a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable experience for your dog while they’re with me. Feel free to include anything else you think I should know to ensure your pup’s stay is perfect!
