I love all animals big and small!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life. By the age of 8 I was responsible for taking care of the dogs including walking them and feeding them in the mornings. At 12 I started taking care of my own cat until I left for the military at 19. I have been dogsitting for various coworkers in my home and at their homes since 2018. I am very good with trained and untrained dogs.

Elida was wonderful with our dog, Poppy! She kept me up to date with photos. Poppy absolutely loved her!

Elida is fantastic! She is kind, compassionate, and flexible. We have the piece of mind knowing that our dog, Stella, is being well cared for while we are away.

Elida is amazing for being so patient with our Kolie. I like that she updates what is happening and concerns. I will definitely use her again as long as she is willing to take our Kolie.

Elida was excellent with Kenzie. She stayed in contact with me throughout the stay and sent wonderful photos. I would highly recommend her and will definitely request her again!

Information Elida A. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know your pets any special needs (separation anxiety, allergies, food needs, etc.) I also would like to your pet’s temperaments just so I can adjust myself to them so they are happy and comfortable with me. I would also love to know your pet’s favorite toys and play methods so they have as much fun as possible. My final need to know is how they feel about men because I am married and if they are staying in my home my husband is going to want to give all the love in the world to your pet and I want to make sure that is okay with them!

A typical day

In a typical day, I’m working but that doesn’t stop me from loving on your pets! I usually walk, feed, and have some playtime before I go to work and then I tend to turn on the TV (if they’re at my house) for your pets because a new place can make anyone anxious, so I like to help with that by providing some voices, colors and sounds so they feel a little less alone. If I’m watching your pet, I’ll come home on lunch to spend more time with them. And after work my schedule is 100% dedicated your pet whether it’s taking them for a run, playing in the backyard or having some good old fashioned lazy time. I love to spend as much time with your four legged friends as possible! I usually play with them, watch TV with them, take them on car rides( if that’s okay with the pet parents/pet.) I usually love to introduce the dogs I watch to new smells and new places, but I’m new to the area so I’m building up my new place log!
