I am currently a student, but most of my classes are online so I am usually able to mold to your schedule. Anything from walks to drop-in’s is amazing! I do also occasionally work other odd jobs, but I’m very upfront about any previous or possibly other work! I do currently have my housesitting closed, simply because I do take it on a case by case basis just to not overwhelm myself! But if you’d be interested in booking a housesitting please do still send a messaging and I’d love to discuss!

I love spending time with animals, anything from fetch with your pup to cuddling with your purring cat sounds like an amazing time to me. I will try and make your animals feel as loved as you make them feel!

Information Elena W. would like to know about your pet

Any large responsibilities or anything pertaining to the animals welfare. Things such as medicine administration or special needs. I’d love to take care of these animals still, but would also like to come prepared as well!

A typical day

I love animals, so outdoor and indoor activities sound amazing. Centennial park is great for Frizbees and the Levee is an amazing walk for sunshine. Wherever we are and whatever we do, I’ll make sure to love your dog just like you!

Pets

I love animals, especially cats!!!

Pet care experience

Throughout my life, animals have been an extremely important part of becoming who I am today. From the chickens I had in my youth, to my neighbors goats, to my ESA cat Satchel, animals have been an integral part of my life and I am so very thankful for them! I originally wanted to sign up for Rover just so I could be able to reach out to more animals and more people, and now well into my second year I can happily say I achieved that and am so excited to continue! I love spending time with animals, anything from fetch with your pup, to cuddling with your purring cat sounds like an amazing time to me. I will try and make your animals feel as loved as you make them feel!

Elena was great with Mya & Aurora (as always)! Our pets are comfortable with her and are happy to see a familiar face while we are gone. Highly recommend Elena!

Elena kindly offered to meet our cat before my husband and I left town, even though we booked with her at the last minute. She was incredibly communicative throughout and made us feel completely at ease while we were traveling. Would book with her again 😊

We have booked Elena for drop in visits for our dog and cat, twice now. For the first visit, she came by to meet us and our pets. Our dog is a little shy meeting new people but she was very patient with her and our dog has warmed up to her. She sends up photos after each visit, has excellent communication— especially for our upcoming booking and recent winter storm which changed our travel dates. Our cat enjoys all of the snuggles while we are away! Highly recommend Elena!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
