Pet care experience

Taking care of your best friend

I have never met an animal I did not love. My mom likes to say that I’ve always loved animals. She remembers me trying to jump out of her arms, before I could even walk, in order to pet a nearby dog. I am a 32 years old and originally from Minnesota. I grew up taking care of a miniature schnauzer named Oreo, who was a wonderful family companion. I had a pet ferret for 6 years named Swarley, who I alone cared for. I have cared for friends and previous roommate’s dogs, fish, cats, rabbits, and rats. I’ve also cared for all kinds of reptiles and amphibians when working at nature centers for 3 years. I have also cared for a neighbors goats and am comfortable around farm animals. I now have a super sweet 8 year old rescue dog named Primrose. If I am lucky enough to get to care for your pet, I will give all of my attention to them and provide the very best care possible. I hope to hear from you soon!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am careful to make sure sneaky pets are unable to escape when I come in and out of doors. I always put a leash and collar on any pet before taking them outdoors. I'm used to and meticulous about keeping medications and food out of reach for pets. I am highly engaged with the pets I am watching and observe for any small signs of stress or health issues. I would call you immediately if I noticed something was wrong or off with your pet and I am totally willing to call your veterinarian or take them to an emergency veterinarian, if ever necessary. I can administer medications and make special diets, if requested.

My dogs loved Elise, even Jax who is more restrained with people. She sent pictures and asked questions which let us know she was taking everything very seriously. We would love to have her come again.

Elise watched our pack this weekend and did such a great job! Leading up to the weekend Elise was very proactive in getting information on them and asking important questions. We were kept up to date on a regular basis with pics!! This made for a stress free weekend and allowing us to enjoy the wedding out of town! Highly recommend!!

If you're looking for a dog walker who's a perfect blend of professionalism and pet-loving vibes, look no further! Our experience with ​E​lise has been top-notch. ​She's been a reliable partner, helping us out multiple times with our two f​our-legged children. ​H​er approach is as impressive as it gets - kind, professional, and oh-so-adept at handling our energetic duo. ​S​he's got that magic touch that instantly puts ​o​ur pups at ease. It's evident ​she genuinely love​s what ​she do​es, and it reflects in the way our pups eagerly wag their tails at the mere mention of ​Elise. ​I highly recommend ​E​lise for anyone seeking not just a dog walker, but a true canine companion during those important outdoor adventures!

I want to know anything that could make you or your pet feel more comfortable and stay safe. Letting me know about any health issues or quirks of the pet is helpful. What do you feel I need to know about your pet before caring for them?
