Four-legged Fur Babies Loved Here!

Pet care experience

I grew up with cats, horses, and dogs. I learned how to bond with each and form very special connections. I have trained all my dogs in basic obedience and currently am learning how to train a service dog. A little about me, I am a USMC veteran who has accomplished much post service and now fortunate enough to be living my best life playing and loving puppies and kitties all day! 🐾💕🐾 I know how lucky I am so I would like to offer my space, experience, and love to your fur-baby. You can breathe knowing that when you come home tired, your baby will be exhausted and happy. UPDATE: At this time, I am unable to offer overnight house sitting which means that last walks/visits would be between 9-10 p.m and first walks/visits would be 5:30-6:30 a.m Thank you

Elena took fantastic care of Oscar and shared a ton of videos and photos, which we loved to receive. She is warm, kind, flexible, and a great communicator. We would use her again in a heartbeat.

This was our second or third time having Elena watch our 4yo dog. We plan to keep hiring her whenever she's available. She's professional and treats our home really well, but most importantly she loves our pup and gives him all the love.

Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to give focused attention during doggy daycare so I keep the daily appointments small (1-2 dogs/day) so that I can minimize resource guarding and maximize the attention and love given to your baby. If your schedule permits, I like doing meet & greets because all of us (you, me, my service dog, and your babies) should be a good fit. You and your baby's comfort are my priority. For dog drop-ins, I offer 30 minutes and 60 minutes play times with no additional charge for walks. I will consult with you to learn your preferences and look forward to continuing to be of service. 🙏🏽💕

A typical day

I love to stimulate your pups. We will go to the nearby park that is usually empty and play Frisbee, we will learn/reinforce basic obedience training like sit/stay etc, play games like tug and most importantly.....couch nap time on fuzzy blankets!

I am able to choose my schedule and only accept appointments when I can give 100% of my attention to your babies. Doggy daycare: We will go out 6-7 times during an 8-12 hour day for potty breaks and playtime. I also have a large sectional sofa perfect for fuzzy couch nap times 💕 House Sitting: Last walk will be between 9-10 pm and morning walk between 5-6 am. UPDATE: At this time, I am unable to offer overnight house sitting which means that last walks/visits would be between 9-10 p.m and first walks/visits would be 5:30-6:30 a.m I collect mail, water any plants, and do a light clean of common areas if needed. Drop Ins: I come play with your babies for the requested time with no extra charge for walks.
