Pet care experience

Experienced Outdoorsy Dog Sitter

Having been a dog lover since childhood, I’ve always had dog sitting gigs for a side hustle. I also managed a professional boarding kennel for 5 years where I learned to care for pets of all sizes, personalities and needs. The great outdoors are my life, and I have grown into a passion hunting dogs, and have spent the last 4 years training my Labrador retriever. I have two dogs of my own, West, my four year old trusty hunting black Labrador, and Tilly a nine year old German Shepherd mix.

Doggy Day Care • Jun 21, 2026

Elena was fantastic! She was communicative, flexible with meeting up, and very trustworthy with our pups. It was so nice to have peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we visited the hot springs. Definitely recommend her if you’re visiting the Steamboat area.

Elena was wonderful and took such good care of our puppy while we spent time at the hot springs! She was extremely communicative and went the extra mile to accommodate us and our puppies needs.

Elena was so sweet with Kota! She was very professional and communicative and even made a VERY early morning stop to accommodate us. We will call her again!

Elena has taken care of my 2 rescue dogs for years. She cares for them like they are her own! I always feel confident when leaving them with her. I highly recommend her for her professional services.
