Experienced
Pet care experience
I'm an experienced, reliable, and compassionate pet caregiver who adores animals! I have 6 years of professional experience working at two major Doggie Daycare & Boarding facilities - one in Austin, TX and one in Kansas City. I have been both a General Manager and a Director of Pet Services at these facilities, and I have ample experience with dog health, socialization, and behavior. I have handled dogs with a HUGE variety of backgrounds. I pride myself on my patience and willingness to provide personalized care dependent on the different needs of each animal. I have been an independent pet sitter for nearly two decades, and I volunteered for years at Animal Haven (now Great Plains SPCA) and Austin Pets Alive! animal shelters. Animals have always brought me immense joy. As a kid, I held lemonade stands to raise money for the local animal shelter, and I have always had pets in my life. Currently, I have an orange tabby cat and a pitbull-chow mix who are two of my very best friends! I'd love to meet you and your pet - feel free to reach out to request a Meet-and-Greet!
Reviews
Elise was wonderful with our dog! She communicated clearly, consistently, and thoroughly while we were away, and she took excellent care of our dog, including giving him medication. It was very clear from the pictures and updates that she sent that our dog was both safe and happy with her—we will absolutely book her again in the future!
My pets love her ❤️
Great experience! Elise is very attentive and caring. She communicates well and understands the demands of puppies!
Good care and communication as always! Even cleaned up after my monsters destroyed a plant of mine 😭😑🤣
About Elise F.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Before any bookings, we would need to schedule a free Meet & Greet where I will get to know both you and your pet to ensure it is a good match for everyone! We will also discuss your pet's health and behavioral needs, answer any questions you may have, and fill out some basic paperwork to ensure I have all the information I need to provide your pets with the best possible care.
Information Elise F. would like to know about your pet
I am open to caring for any breed of dog, and I do not discriminate based on so-called "aggressiveness" stereotypes. I do require that my clients fill out fairly standard paperwork (emergency contacts/protocol, veterinarian preferences, health/behavior concerns, etc.) which can be completed at the Meet & Greet.
A typical day
For both dogs and cats, my goal is always to cater the experience to you and your pets' preferences. For dogs, I am able to provide long or short walks, playing fetch in your backyard (if applicable), and/or lots of cuddles and ear scratching between potty breaks! For cats, I can provide whatever combination of snuggle time and playtime you and the kitty would like!

Elise can watch in your home
Availability
I currently am taking several asynchronous classes, so I am fairly flexible when it comes to afternoon and evening visits. I am looking for some extra income to support my studies and some sweet animals to spend time with!
