Safety, trust & environment

As of now I am only offering home-stays, so the environment is dependent on my clients. I adapt to their needs in what I need to provide and do for them and their pet(s). In home care can consist of feeding, walking, medicating, playing, spending time, looking after, and addressing anything that arises. It can also mean taking in the mail and watering plants. I am adaptable and just request that clients provide me with the information of how to give their pets and home the best care, as they are the ones who know them best.

Information Elise C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any medication or special needs and/or behaviors, and if they are reactive to other dogs or have any other triggers such as mailpeople so I can keep an eye out and avoid them. Important command words are also good to provide as they can differ per dog. I also like to know your expectations for communication as some people prefer a daily check in with photos and others are fine with just occasionally touching base or doing so on an as needed basis.

A typical day

A typical day tends to depend on the animal that I'm caring for. Some are more high energy and require more play time or longer walks while some are older or lazier and prefer more low-key activities or simply quality time. Let me know if your pet has a specific activity that they really enjoy, and I'll do my best to implement it into our routine!

House/Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I've had pets my whole life and started being a bigger part of their care since I was 14! I have been pet sitting for other people for at least 8 years, consisting of dogs, cats, birds, and hedgehogs. And while I don’t have as much experience with reptiles I still love to work with them! I've worked with both young and old pets, giving medicine, providing physical help, and cleaning up accidents when needed. I've done drop in visits and walks but most of my experience lies in live in care (house/pet sitting). In college I did do some limited clicker training for older puppies that would go on to be taught to be service dogs. I’ve also got experience with caring for multiple pets at a time! I’ve personally had 3 dogs at once and professionally have done multiple 2 dog 2 cat jobs among other configurations.

Elise watched our three dogs over the weekend. Booking was easy and the boys had a great time with her (the photos proved it). She managed our dogs with no issue. We would definitely recommend using her!

Elise kept us informed and sent pictures. We are very grateful for her help with watching our 4-legged children.

Elise is our go to for all dog-sitting needs! She is the most reliable pet sitter we have had, and we trust her very much. I highly recommend her.

Elise has been our trusted petsitter for over 3 years now. She is great with our large dog, who can sometimes be a bit stubborn on walks. She also won over our shy cat, who shocked us all when he first let Elise pet him. She has even kept an eye on our hens when needed! Although we’d love to keep her to ourselves, we recommend her to friends and neighbors on the regular.

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.
