Pet care experience

I have had dogs in my life since I was born. They are a special part of my life. I love them like family! I treat each animal as unique and special, doing my best to care for your pet as my own. Friends have relied on me to walk and sit with their dogs.

Elena took great care of our pets, there were no issues. When we came back home it was as if no one stayed here, it was clean and the dogs were happy.

Elena did a fine job watching our fur babies. We booked with her only two weeks before we departed. She was a true blessing, and came through for us on relatively short notice. Elena stayed in our home and took care of our two dogs and one cat. They were well cared for; particularly the dogs who both have severe anxiety during thunderstorms. Thank you Elena!
