Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Elena and I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies :) I was one on Rover a few years ago but took a break to focus on my current job, son, and my fur babies… however over the past 2 years all but one of my pets (my cat Carlee) passed over the rainbow bridge and my heart hasn’t been the same. I am not ready to bring another dog into my life just yet, but I do miss being around dogs very much so here I am again to give all the doggies and kitties out there my love :) I worked in the veterinary field for 10 years before pursuing my current career as a nursing assistant and esthetician. I have extensive experience working with dogs, cats and even some exotic pets. I have 10+ years experience of petsitting for clients I’ve met through my career, as well as family, friends and friends of friends! :) Every fur baby I meet/care for will be treated as my very own. I am available on all holidays unless I am out of town, which would show on my calendar. My rates listed are my standard but we can work out the best rate per yours and your pets needs :) Thank you and look forward to hearing from you.
Reviews
Elana is SO amazing! She not only “dogsat” my fur babies but she went the extra mile by letting them swim in her pool with she and her son and my dogs LOVE the water! It is OBVIOUS that she loves dogs and I felt completely comfortable leaving my pups with her. She sent pics and videos to comfort me when I was missing them. She is THE BEST!!!
Out of all the Rover sitters I have worked with, Elena has unfortunately faced the most challenges with my dogs. I’m happy to say she handles it with grace! She has worked with my dogs a few times now, and I believe they really look forward to her visits. My most stubborn dog Sumiko would have had any other sitter running for the hills, but Elena always reassures me that each day she does better and better. The cherry on top, she’s been available to me with less than 24 hours notice (my fault)! We are so happy to have Elena in our corner on the days that I work!
Elena was amazing. I had to work out of town for a week and she took great care of my pup. He loves seeing her. She kept me up to date every day. She took pics so I could see my boy. I'm looking forward to having her watch my furbaby. If you need a reliable Sutter for your pet she is the one you want.
It is my pleasure to recommend Elena as a pet sitter. She has helped us out with our fur babies for three years now. She is kind, honest reliable, and our animals absolutely love her. She is knowledgeable about the care of companion animals, and I know that she would be able to spot a problem and not just throw food in a dish and walk away. We have used her services many, many times and have been completely satisfied. I am very fussy about who takes care of our animals, and I am happy to say that I trust Elena completely.

I do have a pool which is fenced off, but even so- all small/mini dogs will no go outside without me. I have 1 very sweet cat and a son so any pets to stay with me must not have any aggression/behavioral issues.

Vaccinations must be up to date, please produce proof upon booking (unless medically cleared- proof also needed). *I usually like to set up time to meet your pets prior to their stay or my visit which is why I request a minimum of 3 days in advance for booking.*
A typical day
I am unable to stay the night with your pets in your home, however I can visit them twice a day and can board most pets at home with me :) I can administer oral as well as injectable medications if needed. Whether your fur baby is young and ready to play fetch/go on walks, chase toys OR an old baby who just needs some extra care and love while Mom or Dad are away I’m here to help.
