Pet care experience

Compassionate Individualized Care

I am an experienced companion animal care provider with 10+ years of professional experience. I am deeply passionate about supporting the welfare of animals and providing compassionate, individualized care. I see every animal as an individual with their own unique needs, wants, and personality, and I tailor my care to the animal in front of me by paying close attention to their body language, behavior, and history. I am confident in my ability to help animals feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for when their owners are away. I also utilize positive reinforcement training techniques, with proven success in helping dogs learn new skills and behaviors. I have experience with potty training and working with dogs who experience leash reactivity, always using patience, consistency, and reward-based methods. Above all, my goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and understood while you’re away. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, respect, and attentiveness I would want for my own, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring and capable hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a safe neighborhood with lots of trees and bushes for sniffing. My apartment is cozy and quiet and is home to my 13-yr-old rescue Pom who tends to keeps to herself when other dogs are around (shes a people dog). However she’s great at sharing her treats and attention. My apartment is kept clean and human food is not left out for animals to get into, just plenty of water and treats/food as appropriate. If you’ve got an anxious furry friend, I will make sure to provide plenty of patience and gentleness. My goal is to create a safe environment for comfort and play for your pup.

Elena was great! She was easy to work with and responsive. She showed up early and gave my dog a few extra minutes. Thanks!

Elena helped us out when we needed a sitter on short notice. She was very easy to communicate with and I felt that our pup was in great hands while we were traveling!

I find it important to know ahead of time if your dog has high energy levels or attention needs. If so, I like to make sure my schedule will accommodate. It’s also necessary to know if your pup understands boundaries with other dogs. My dog is older and mostly prefers her space.
