Elena was absolutely wonderful! She took exceptional care of our precious schnauzer, Leopold, while we were away. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. Elena was excellent with communication, sending us frequent updates and adorable photos that reassured us Leopold was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him and treated him like her own. In addition to taking such great care of Leopold, Elena also looked after our home beautifully. We returned to a spotless house and a very happy pup. We highly, highly recommend Elena to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring pet sitter and house sitter. She exceeded our expectations in every way, and we would gladly have her watch Leopold again!

Elena was super duper communicative, friendly, and most importantly loving to our dog. We have a very high energy pup, and we have never come back from a trip to find our dog is actually tired. We are usually playing catchup to get her exercised when we get home. Not this time!!! We felt very comfortable with her in our home. Thank you, Elena!

Hello to you if you are interested in reaching out to Elena for Pet…or House Sitting. I cannot say enough about the care that our dog has received from Elena. First, Elena has an EXCELLENT first impression. She was very professional and asked all the right questions at our initial drop-in meeting prior to our departure. We provided Elena with a binder that covered things about our little boy, as well as covering important notes about our house and emergency contacts – Elena was very appreciative of the binder. Second. Thank you, Elena, for sending me texts and pictures while we have been gone – we loved to see how the boy was enjoying your care & attention. I can honestly say that I had no worries about my boy while I was gone, Grazie, Grazie, Grazie. Lastly, I say this in hopes I don’t’ miss out in future bookings…. Elena is a must in our lives as it has been a blessing to have her during this visit.

Schedule

I work from home so it’s easy and fun to have pet around, keeping me company. I love walking dogs. I have large fresh grassy fenced yard front and back. A ton of pet beds, toys and fancy cat tower. I have pet bowls. I am a Dr, so if meds needs to be administered, I can help.

Please ensure your pets are trained (potty, social, obedience). If your dog is incessantly barking, it won’t work. Also, if your pet is incontinent or not potty trained, it won’t work. Please be honest. I have white carpet. I am a Dr. practice telehealth, and if your dog barks non stop, while in video meetings with patients, it won’t work. Thanks for your honesty.
