Reliable and experienced Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Animals have been the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by pets built a lifelong passion that eventually led me to my two rescue pups, Bingo and Birdie—a friendly pair who never turn down a nature walk or a good play session. Over the past six years, I’ve dedicated my time to fostering rescue dogs and cats. That experience taught me how to read animal body language, build trust with timid or anxious pets, and handle basic medical needs, including administering medication. To ensure a peaceful and personalized stay, I focus exclusively on small dogs (up to 25 lbs) and host only one guest at a time. I kindly ask for a meet-and-greet with all new clients to make sure your pup feels right at home!

Benny had an amazing time with Elisa and her pups! She accepted my last minute booking and I knew he was in great hands. I got daily updates and knew my boy had a blast playing because he slept for a full day after coming home. Thank you Elisa!

Jovi has been staying with Elisa a couple of years now - short and long trips. Her family, including Birdie and Bingo are the best there is. I hesitate to write this b/c I always want her available for Jovi. But Elisa deserves all the good pets and support we have! Thank you!

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.
