Pet care is something I can easily tend to as I’m never out of the house for too long. With a flexible schedule, the pet can come first and I am able to give the animal my undivided love and attention. I am able to work around others schedules as well between mornings or evenings I will be there for your pup!

Safety, trust & environment

I will never leave you questioning how your pet is doing, keeping you updated with photos and notes is important to me! I prefer to keep a safe, clean, calm, and positive environment when caring for a pet. I understand many pets require a lot of patience to get comfortable and I am always willing to provide that.

Information Elio R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any way I can accommodate your pet! I want the best experience possible for everyone involved and if that means going out of my way for your pet I’ll do it. I understand that dogs and cats have completely different personalities and face different challenges and I will never judge for that.

A typical day

The pets I watch will be spoiled with playtime, walks, cuddles, training activities, and treats/lick mat/kong (if permitted)! I will pace the day depending on how your pet is feeling.

Pet care experience

I’m an animal lover of all kinds and am currently saving to go to school for Animal Care at Durham College! I’ve taken care of pets since the age of 13, making it my full time commitment this past summer, and love what I do. As for professional experience, I spent Summer 2024 working at a doggy daycare/kennel and I learned a lot about how different dogs can be and how to handle all types of breeds and temperaments. I also supervised 10+ dogs at a time during daycare hours. I consider myself a very kind and empathetic person and I apply those values to the pets I meet as well, rest assured your pets will get lots of love and care with me!

Once again Elio took wonderful care of our little Opie… the regular updates and pictures of Opie’s day gives us such peace of mind and Elio also is very respectful of our home. We appreciate him so much! Thank you Elio, you are awesome!

Great communication for a relatively last minute walk. Will definitely be using Elio again!

Elio watched our little Opie again when we went on a little getaway for 2 days. Opie was so excited when he arrived! He sent us updates on how Opie was doing a couple of times a day as well as photos. Elio is very gentle and kind and gives us peace of mind while we’re away and is respectful of our home. We will definitely call Elio again 🐾🦴

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
