Pet care experience

reliable, attentive, & flexible

Hi there! I'm a Yale graduate student who loves caring for dogs and cats when I'm not in classes. I'm happy to simply walk your dog, board or care for your pet in my apartment, or stay with them in your home. Past clients have described me as responsible, caring, and communicative. And I'm always ready to walk (literally) the extra mile for your pet. Bottom line: I will ensure your dog or cat is safe and happy in my care. I treat all pups or cats as my own.

Eliana is a wonderful cat sitter! She is very attentive and asked a lot of informed questions regarding our cat's care. She is quick to respond and was great about sending updates and pictures of our boy. Highly recommend and would definitely book with her again!

Eliana’s the best! Our cat boarded with her for a day and I appreciated her flexibility and communication throughout the process. It was our cat’s first time boarding and we couldn’t have chosen a more accommodating and kind sitter.

Eliana was an amazing host for Thomas and Panchito! They were well cared for, and communication was excellent and flexible throughout. I truly appreciate her attentiveness and look forward to booking with her again! hopefully, she’ll be available next time.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I usually have about 2 hours of classes per day on campus in New Haven. Aside from that, my schedule is very flexible. I also have my own car, and I'm able to come to your home to feed or check in on your pet as needed. Your pet is also welcome in my home, where I can provide more constant care. Potential clients should know that I live with my fiancé Michael, so I can only accept pets who are comfortable with males. Michael works from home, and he loves to be accompanied by and care for your pet during his workday. This means, your pet will never be alone and will always have a human friend, even when I’m in classes.

Safety, trust & environment

If I am ever watching your pet in your home, I will carry great respect for your home and the way that you'd like your pet to be cared for in your home. I also recognize that pets value their own routine, and I want to care for your pet in the ways that you've cared for them. I will never replace you as their best friend, but I will always strive to help your pet feel safe and respected in my hands.

Pets

A typical day

As much as I can, I like to follow the dog’s leads. Walks, at their best, are about safe and structured discovery. They present a safe opportunity for your dog to exercise his or her curiosity. And if I get the sense that your dog wants to play fetch or nap under the sun for a moment, I will gladly oblige. Now, for cats, I know that this is their world, and I'm just living in it. I'm happy to play or pet, but I also respect that some cats like their space.

It’s important to know a pet's emotional triggers as best as you can before exploring the town together. Does your dog become anxious in the presence of other dogs? Does your dog prefer a quieter walk or a more lively, social one? Does your dog like to nap for most of the day, or can he or she play for hours? Does your cat prefer to be pet, or do they like their space? What sort of behavior is abnormal for your pet? I want your pet to have the best and safest Rover experience.
