Pet care experience
I've owned both cats and dogs a majority of my life and began pet sitting on the weekends during my college years. I have cared for and been relied on for several local families when they go on vacation or away for the weekend and they know their pets are in good hands. I have also dropped in for an afternoon to make sure a new puppy could get potty breaks without worry. I owned 2 German Shepherds before my current rescue dog. I am very experienced in sitting large breed dogs. Currently I have a Pointer mix (medium size, 45 lbs) as well as 2 cats. When I work with a pet I offer the basic needs, companionship, and any extra care needed. I have given medication to both young and older dogs. I am able to help with any training if instructed on what and how they are learning. But mostly my job is to make your pet comfortable while you are away. I understand pet parents are nervous about leaving their fur baby with a person they just met. I believe in having constant communication with you, sending pictures of your fur baby having a great time with me. You can rest assured your pet will be taken care of!
Reviews
Great care for my cat over Christmas break, and on short notice.
Great with my pup and was very timely.

Elif made my first rover experience a breath of fresh air. I was worried about leaving my dog over the weekend without mid-day care (as her other pet-parent had to work 12 hour shifts), and Elif came to the rescue. She was extremely communicative, timely, and sent pictures and a report card with each visit. My 75lb pit mix thoroughly enjoyed playing rope with Elif while she was there too! Definitely recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced in backyard and a friendly medium sized male dog (the cats have their own room they like stay in when there is company.) The dogs can be kept separate the entire time if needed.

Information Elif K. would like to know about your pet
Are they taking any medication, are they friendly with other dogs and children, are they rescued and is there anything that puts them in defense mode or scares them, are they house broken, are they neutered/spayed?
A typical day
*Please note* For Overnight: the rate is for a 24 hour stay. Any stay that is over 24 hours will be charged an additional day care rate as this is the standard practice for most highly rated dog sitters and boarding facility. For Drop-Ins: I will drop in at your house for 30 minutes to take care of your pet - unless you select 1 hour option. I will take outside for the bathroom, feed, water, and play during that time. The rate is for each drop-in, not per day. For Walking: I only walk dogs that are 100 lbs or smaller. I am not strong enough to handle a pet that is larger and tries to take off if they see another pet. This ensures that your pet is safe. I only walk during the early hours of the day or the later hours at night. Your pet's safety is my upmost concern and due to the heat of the day, your pet's paws could burn on the hot concrete.
