Experienced Sitter Who Loves Dogs
I’ve been dog-sitting for 3 years, and honestly, I just really love dogs! 🐶 I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, with most of my experience being with bigger dogs. I’ve looked after two Huskies at once, a Standard Poodle, Chihuahua, Pomeranian, and senior dogs. I grew up with a Lhasa Apso and was lucky enough to care for him myself during his senior years, so I understand how much extra patience, love, and attention older pups can need. I’m also very active and genuinely love going for walks. I average at least 10,000 steps a day, so if your dog loves a good walk, we’re probably going to be best friends! I’m very comfortable staying in other people’s homes and actually enjoy helping dogs stay in the environment they know and love. My goal is to keep your pup happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you’re away. I’ll give them plenty of attention, exercise, cuddles, and, of course, lots of love!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I will ensure that gates and doors are locked. The dog is on leash whenever we leave and to avoid other dogs and people if necessary. I will stick to your wishes on how you want your pet looked after.
Ratings and reviews
I highly recommend Elise as a dog sitter! I have two 10-year-old Huskies, and she has stayed in my home with them numerous times, usually for two weeks or longer. She takes them on two long walks every day, gives them plenty of love and attention, and takes excellent care of them. She is reliable, professional, and genuinely loves my dogs. I completely trust her with both my dogs and my home, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m away. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her stay with them again!
I highly recommend Elise as a Dogsitter. She has sat with Chewbacca, our standard poodle, several times, and each time, she has been incredibly responsible. In fact, she was a true miracle worker when she was sitting with Chewbacca in early January of 2025. As the Eaton fire approached, she not only had saved Chewbacca, but she went back to our house and saved my jewelry and other items before our house burned to the ground. We are forever grateful to her for her devotion and bravery. But, best of all, Chewbacca loves her so much that he mopes when she leaves. :-) I highly recommend Elise!
Elise was absolutely amazing caring for my elderly dog, who can no longer be boarded due to his health condition. She stayed in our home, made sure he was properly fed every day, and handled his medications with total reliability and compassion. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands. Elise went above and beyond, and I would recommend her to anyone who needs their fur baby truly cared for. She’s exceptional.
Elise was wonderful with my Pomeranian, Ollie and very dependable. She was gentle, attentive, and made sure my dog got a good walk and plenty of attention. I felt completely comfortable trusting her with my pup and would happily recommend her for dog walking. My dog knows that she loves him and will attend to his needs in the same manner I do.
Elise has always had such a soft spot for dogs. She’s loving, patient and genuinely attentive to their individual personalities and needs. She has experience with senior dogs as well as dogs big and small, and I’ve seen firsthand how caring and compassionate she is with them. She’s also extremely responsible, clean and conscientious, and will treat your home and privacy with the same respect she would her own. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust Elise with a beloved pup or home. They’ll be in wonderful hands!
