Elise was incredibly flexible and took excellent care of our ferret, even though she had never taken care of a ferret before! She was very communicative and responded immediately anytime I messaged her. Would definitely book Elise again to watch any of our pets!

Elise worked as a part of my volunteer team at Magpie & Daisy’s pet rescue out of Hampton, VA. She was a consistent fixture at our rescue and always provided thorough and careful care of all the cats and kittens we had housed in our facility. Finding people that truly love animals is surprisingly more difficult than you’d think it would be, but I can say with confidence that I found that when Elise reached out to me for a volunteer opportunity. Not only did she adore every kitty we had under our care, but she was also unbelievably reliable as well. Anytime I needed someone to cover a shift for myself or someone else, she was always willing to offer up her time because she truly cared about the kitties in our kennels receiving playtime and direct affection. Stuff like that makes a world of difference for animals waiting to be adopted or fostered. I can say with absolute confidence that any position or responsibility offered to Elise that involves animals would be handled with the utmost care and love. She is a wonderful friend to animals and I will personally attest to this. -Thomas V. —Magpie & Daisy’s Volunteer Coordinator —Magpie & Daisy’s Board Member
