Safety, trust & environment
I take caring for pets in their home very seriously. I follow your instructions exactly, keep doors locked, maintain routines, and stay mindful of your pet’s emotional comfort. I leave your home clean, your pet settled, and you fully informed. Trust matters and I work hard to earn it every visit.
Information Elena V. would like to know about your pet
Before I care for your pet, I like to understand the things that really matter for their comfort and safety. Please share: Daily routines — meal times, walk schedules, sleep habits Any anxieties or triggers — doorbells, loud noises, new people, other dogs Medical needs — meds, allergies, mobility issues, past surgeries, feeding restrictions Behavioral quirks — counter surfing, chewing, scooting out doors, leash pulling House rules — furniture boundaries, crate expectations, where they’re allowed to roam Social preferences — do they like kids, strangers, or other dogs? Anything that soothes them - favorite toy, bedtime ritual, special phrase they respond to The more I know, the more I can keep your pet grounded, safe, and in their rhythm.
A typical day
My days revolve around your pet’s needs. Morning potty break, breakfast, a little affection to start the day right. Walks, play, cuddles, or quiet time — whatever your pet thrives on, that’s what we do. I keep your home clean and your pet’s routine steady. Nights end with a calm environment, doors locked, and your pet feeling safe and loved.

Pet Care, Elevated.
Pet care experience
Pet care, Elevated. It isn’t just a headline for me; it’s the standard I have built my business on. I am a professional pet sitter which means more than just "I love animals". It means honoring people, their homes, and their animals. I am a USMC veteran, went on to the medical field, and am now living my best life connecting with pet parents and their fur families. The 5 things that makes my care different (as stated by my clients). 1. Consistency & communication: You never wonder how your fur family is doing. I send frequent and detailed videos and photos during our stay together. 2. Routine-centered care: I learn your pet’s schedule and keep it tight. I am there to do the job of spoiling your animal in a safe and loving way. 3. Emphasis on emotional comfort: I read body language, adjust energy, and make your pet feel safe, not just supervised. 4. Cleanliness & respect for your home: You come back to a house that feels cared for, not “used.” I approach each home with the integrity I would want for my own. 5. A concierge mindset: Little thoughtful touches, proactive updates, and a level of professionalism you don’t often find on apps with "gig" workers. I’ve cared for seniors, puppies, anxious/reactive pets, medical-needs pets, and confident, goofy ones who just want snuggles on the couch. I value building trust with both the animals and their hoomans. 🐾 If you’re looking for basic coverage, there are many great sitters here. If you’re looking for a grounded, calm, highly reliable professional who treats your pets like family and your home with respect, that’s where I shine. I’d love to support your household with the kind of care that actually feels elevated.
Reviews
Elena provides excellent loving care. My dog, Sage, was an elderly, shy dog with health issues. Elena took her time with her and developed a trusting bond. Sage started to decline during while we were away and I had to make the hard decision to euthanize her. Elena provided wonderful support for Sage and me during this difficult time. Elena is so much more than a sitter; she is a thoughtful, caring person. I highly recommend her fir all your pets’ needs.
Amazing as always!!!
Elena went above and beyond sitting our dog, Lola! Lola had been in our house for less than two weeks when my husband and I had to leave her alone for the first time for a long weekend out of states We got Lola from a humane society and she is working through anxiety and training. Elena went above and beyond to calm her, help train her, spend quality time with her and make sure she got the support, exercise, care and attention she needed. She sent frequent updates to keep us in the loop on how Lola was doing and truly went above and beyond. Please know if you’re looking for exceptional and compassionate care for your dog - not just a “sitter” - Elena is such a clear choice! My husband and I are so grateful and are happy to know we have a trusted caretaker for our girl in the future :)
If I could give Elena a 10 star review, I would! From the moment she came to stay with our pup she would send me frequent updates, pictures, & videos on how well he was doing. I never once worried how well he was being taken care off. I hope when we travel again she will be available. 😃 🐾
