Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets as if they were my own and focus on keeping their routines consistent so they feel safe and comfortable. In my home, dogs will have plenty of space to relax and feel at ease. I have a large home with a fully fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, and I live in a safe neighborhood that’s great for walks. For boarding, I follow each dog’s normal feeding, potty, and sleep schedule. Dogs receive regular potty breaks, walks, exercise, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs whether they are energetic, shy, senior, or need extra patience and reassurance. For drop-in visits and dog walking, I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner to maintain their pet’s routine. I make sure pets get the exercise, attention, and care they need while keeping their environment safe and clean. I also have experience caring for senior and sick dogs. Toward the end of my own dog Lexi’s life, I administered medications daily, syringe-fed water, and hand-fed meals, so I’m comfortable providing extra support when needed. As a dog owner myself, I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone else. I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident knowing their pets are safe, loved, and well cared for.

Information Elisabeth M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any special medications they need or if there are any behaviors I should be aware of. Let me know if they don’t do well with other dogs or on walks.

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks, play fetch, or let them just hang out in the backyard with me. I always monitor them when they are outside and don’t treat my yard with any toxic chemicals so it’s safe for them.

Reliable Care from a Dog Mom

Pet care experience

I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and cared for my own dog, Lexi, for 13 wonderful years before she passed away from cancer last year. Caring for her through every stage of life gave me deep experience not only with daily walks, feeding, bathing, and training, but also with senior and medical care. Toward the end of her life, I administered medications daily, syringe-fed water, and hand-fed meals, so I understand the patience and gentleness that some pets need. Before Lexi, I grew up in a home full of dogs, and my mom was a breeder for a short time, so I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was young. I truly consider myself a dog person through and through. I work full-time managing procurements and contracts for the state, which means I’m dependable, organized, and responsible. I’m looking to spend time caring for dogs because my home feels a little empty without Lexi, and I would love the companionship of furry friends again. I also know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone else since I’ve been in that position myself. Because of that, I treat every dog like family and do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I have a large home with a yard and plenty of space for dogs to relax and feel at home.

Elisabeth took excellent care of my pup! My dog is a protective GSD but she trusted Elisabeth very quickly. Elisabeth was very accommodating to my requests as well. Super grateful for her services.

Elizabeth was absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of my dog and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about my dog's comfort and well-being. I received updates and could tell my dog was happy and well cared for the entire time. I would gladly book with Elizabeth again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!🐾💕

Elisabeth is so friendly and kind ! She watched my pups with a day notice when my sitter canceled and she even did a video chat so we could meet and feel comfortable. Her house is adorable and I love that she understood senior dogs. She loved my slightly blind slightly deaf , possibly selective hearing baby lol she also updated me all weekend with pics that made me feel so relieved Lola Joe was loving life while I was away. You should totally book her because I am thankful I did . ♥️
