Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I schedule my day around visits and walks, making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need. Whether it’s morning check-ins, midday playtime, or evening walks, I keep a consistent routine so pets feel secure and cared for. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I love and prioritize every day

Information Elena W. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best care, it’s important for pet parents to let me know about their pet’s daily routine, feeding schedule, any medical needs or medications, behavioral quirks, and favorite activities or toys. Knowing how a pet communicates, what makes them happy or anxious, and any special instructions helps me ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

A typical day

I love keeping pets active, engaged, and happy while their owners are away. Depending on their personality and energy level, I’ll take them on walks, play fetch, enjoy tug-of-war, or explore new sniff spots outside. For pups who love snuggles, I’ll make time for belly rubs, cuddles, and quiet companionship. My goal is to make every pet feel loved and entertained, whether that’s through play, exercise, or simply being by their side.

Pet care experience

What sets me apart from other sitters is that I treat every pup like family—not just a pet to check in on. From extra belly rubs and goofy playtime to patient care for shy or senior dogs, I make sure each furry friend feels safe, loved, and truly at home. My goal isn’t just to meet their needs, but to keep those tails wagging and give you total peace of mind while you’re away

The dogs loved Elena and we did too! She played with them outside and they loved it. She kept in touch with us and kept us up to date on what was going on with our babies. We will have her again! Anyone would be lucky to have her for their dog sitter.
