Availability

Elise is a medical student so her schedule works best for dogs with humans who work full time, but she can be flexible. Elise is able to help pets during her breaks. She can be flexible with how early your dog gets up or if the dog needs to be let out during the night. She is used to that with her parents’ dog.

Safety, trust & environment

Currently Elise only cares for pets who remain in their home during the time of service. This is due to her apartment not having a lot of green space or space to roam. She does not live with the family dog as pictured. If you would like, she often helps clean the client's home during her stay so please let her know if you have any projects or to-do's to tackle.

Information Elise O. would like to know about your pet

Please let her know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors. She would also like to know who your preferred emergency care provider is and if she should always get a hold of you before bringing the dog in or if she should bring them in if you are not reachable.

A typical day

Elise loves to take dogs for regular walks and play toys with them. She has toys like sensory play mats that she can bring for entertainment and mental stimulation as well. She doesn't believe that you can't teach an old dog new tricks, so we might surprise you with a new talent when you come home, if possible.

Elise was wonderful with my doggies! Hazel and Jak warmed up to her quickly. She kept me updated while i was at work. Would recommend her to anyone that is searching for a sitter and will reach out for future opportunities. 😊

Elise was absolutely wonderful with our babies and even our “tricky” girl Evie absolutely loved her! Will absolutely be hiring her again. Thanks for everything!

Elise was great with my two pups. She’s aware of their needs and definitely provided plenty of belly rubs and attention. I will definitely have her back.

Elise was the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. And how do we know? My dog suffers from anxiety and is usually wary of strangers, but I had to travel and asked if she could stay at the hotel we were in to take care of him while we had to go out. Within a minute, he was already showing his belly for her to give him rubs. When we returned, he was happy to see us but ran straight to Elise to lick her and sit next to her. Besides that, she is a wonderful person—super responsible, organized, and pleasant to be around. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pet just as you do, I highly recommend her!
