Pet care experience
My chief concerns are loving your fur babes with the same care, attention, and security that my two domestic short hair cats, shih tzu,ferret, and Russian tortoise all deserve. My experience in animal care began at RISD, where I was a lab technician in the Nature Lab in 2016. There I tended to a variety of terrariums for reptiles, and insects, aquariums abundant with fish, jellies, and cuttlefish, hydroponic systems. For years after, I volunteered boarding services and dog walks for friends, while raising my own family. Today I help other pet parents as a side gig for me as I’m an art teacher full time.
Reviews
Elijah had great communication and was very knowledgeable and happy to connect with my dog. I Have a dog that has a very high prey drive and also is disabled. Because of these things I have never let anyone take care of my dog before that isn't in my immediate circle. I was honestly very anxious, but seeing how attentive he was put me at ease. He also sent updated and etas which was helpful and asked questions when my dog was being picky or Stubborn To make sure he ate or drank. I would recommend him and book him again.
Eli is always very helpful and communicative, going above and beyond.
Eli is always communicative if anything arises.
Super happy with Elijah. Constant check-in’s and pictures. He went above and beyond with time spent with Salim and Simon during our week away during the Christmas holidays. The house was in great shape and in order upon our return. We would totally recommend Elijah for pet care; he genuinely cares. We will use his services again.

Safety, trust & environment
My home offers a locked, secure fully fenced back yard with ample space for the tortoise to roam or the shih tzu and ferrets to play. The yard and inside of the house are under recorded surveillance as well as the front of the house. Monitoring home from my phone is convenient this way. Additionally, my animal's home is situated in a low traffic area.
Information Elijah F. would like to know about your pet
Some information I would need to know is their feed and walk schedule, if and what medications they need, their triggers, if they travel well, how socialized they are around other dogs and people!
A typical day
Fun activities I will do with the dogs are exploring the local parks, taking them near water for some sight seeing, and exploring new paths on my dog walking routes.
