Eli was very accommodating and flexible! Communication was great and Rudy enjoyed his stay! We already have another stay booked!

Eli dog sat for us on several week-long trips out of state. He was always so friendly to work with, and really responsible, responsive and caring for our two dogs. We returned and could see that they built a great trusting bond between our dogs and Eli, which as a dog-parent, was comforting to see that they were cared for so well. We would hire Eli again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to anyone looking for peace of mind that their dogs would be well taken care of.

I couldn't be happier with the care our Golden Retriever received from Eli. Whether it’s daily walks or overnight boarding, Eli is professional, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. Our pup always comes home happy and well-rested. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

Eli is the dog whisperer! We have a very anxious dog who has a hard time with other dogs and most people. Eli was so kind and made her feel so comfortable that she walked without charging or barking at other dogs and was able to walk with his dog and snuggle together on the couch. We couldn't believe it, he is seriously the dog whisperer. We can't recommended his services enough, we have him on speed dial! Thanks so much Eli!!

Elias took care of our terrier/dachshund mix recently, and at first we were concerned about how she would respond (she has anxiety and sometimes lashes out with new people). After a short time, Elias was able to calm her down and by the end of the weekend our girl was sleeping next to him on the couch. I couldn't believe it! We don't usually have this type of success when leaving her with other people, so I highly recommend Elias as someone who can tame the beast that is our pup. If he can work miracles with our girl, rest assured he can do the same with yours.

Elias has been a huge help in caring for my two dogs (one senior and one puppy). He’s very trustworthy and communicative, making leaving my pups in his care easy when I have to travel. He provides special attention to my senior dog who needs extra time on walks and medication given. He takes lots of photo updates and sends them throughout the day so I know my pups are doing well. I highly recommend Elias for any pet sitting or walking.

Schedule

I have decided to make caring for pets my full time job. I am single and live alone with my 2 yr old female pupper. We have plenty of time to make your fur babies feel how special they actually are.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small fenced in yard. If it's nice out then I like to leave it open so they have free reign. My place is small so I'm always near. I will only accept pets that get along with other dogs. It starts with my dog, Kaiya. She gets along with all dogs so if a dog has a problem with her then they won't be invited for doggy day care. However, that does not mean I cannot pay a visit to your house for any needs. I can also crate any dog that is better suited for that environment. Safety for all pups under my watch is the number one priority.
