Pet care experience

Ready to meet your pup or kitty!

I’ve been caring for family member’s cats and dogs for years now, and it’s been a hoot! Cat mom of 3+ years now. I’m dependable and will give your pet time and the care they need while you’re away whether it be a walk/run, stop at the park, treats, or just pets and loving. I’m attentive and would cater to any do’s and don’ts specific to your pet. I’m used to having dogs who need to avoid other dogs, people, or the dreaded mailman. I also take no offense to private cats or dogs who may be hesitant about me initially. I give the space they need to feel safe in their own homes. Feel free to contact me to see if we can schedule something for weeknight evenings/weekends/holidays. Thanks for the consideration in advance. Hope we can chat soon!!

Safety, trust & environment

I love getting to ground level for loving and a round of fetch. I can also respect any shy pet’s privacy and be in and out refreshing food, water, and potty areas. I send pics and provide any updates on changes in behavior or accidents.

We had a very good experience with Elena. Expect good communication, punctuality, daily updates and pics. I would definitely book her again.

Elena helped us out so much after a last minute cancellation. She was prompt, thorough and took lovely pics of our boys as a bonus !

Elena is a wonderful pet sitter who has taken excellent care of my furry baby over the last 3 years! Right off the bat when we first met her we got an excellent first impression. She is reliable, very warm and friendly. She has been great with Louie, treats him as her own and sends pictures without asking giving me peace of mind when away. 10 of 10 recommend Elena!

Elena has been providing care for my pets for several years, and has always been incredibly responsible and caring with them. I have a cat that requires medication administration, and Elena is always so mindful and gentle when doing so. She’s both reliable and responsive, and my pets love her! I couldn’t recommend Elena more.

I'd like to know your pet's social habits with people and other cats/dog as well as clean up habits (water changing/clean up routine) so I can manage their areas accordingly. Happy to do a meet and greet beforehand.
