Small Dog Lover; WFH Full Time!

Pet care experience

I am an absolute dog lover! I fell in love with little dogs after my 1st who was an 8-pound Yorkie/Daschund mix and now have my 5-pound Yorkie/Teddy Bear mix Fiona. I am very comfortable with the quirks/unique personalities of little dogs and know the special care they require. I am happy to work with your pooch on training and can give any senior dogs the loving, patient attention they need. I will keep your dog comfy and safe while you are away, and will tailor my care to your requests.

This was our first experience using Rover and I couldn’t have been more pleased. Elisa was amazing!! It was also our first time having to leave Meadow and after meeting Elisa I knew we had nothing to worry about. It was an amazing peace of mind to be gone for a week and know she was in great hands and being taken care of as well as she would have been at home. Highly recommend!!

This was our first time leaving our puppy, and Elisa made the experience so easy. From the first meeting, we could really tell how much Elisa enjoys dogs and how knowledgeable she is. We especially appreciated her care not just for her physical care but emotional well being. When she noticed that our puppy was not eating well the first night, she took extra care to boil her some chicken. Elisa kept us updated with photos throughout her stay.

Elisa went above and beyond caring for Sparky. She was concerned that Sparky wasn’t eating enough, so she even cooked chicken for her. Elisa sent photos and updates throughout Sparky’s stay. We know Sparky was given special TLC and will definitely use Elisa again. We’re so glad we found her on this site!

Elisa was an excellent sitter for our small senior dog! She provided consistent updates throughout our dog's stay and it was evident how much she cared about him. I would highly recommend her!

Information Elisa L. would like to know about your pet

Is there anything you particularly want or don't want me to do? Do you have any special requests? Happy to accommodate! Does your pet have any triggers or behaviors I should help with? How can I help you feel comfortable leaving your dog with me? (I can do pictures, a journal of activities, video chats, etc.) I know how hard it is to leave your pet and want to help you enjoy your time away!

A typical day

Fiona and I go to the dog park 3 to 4 days a week in nice weather! For new doggie friends, we stay leashed at all times. In bad weather we go to dog-friendly stores to get some exercise and people-interaction (Thank you Home Goods, Home Depot, and PetsMart!).
