Elise did a good job at dropping in to walk and eat, but not really when it came to house sitting. I didn’t really want him in the cage all day and that’s what happened. Although, I did say the max he is good in the cage is 8 hrs, but she put home back in the cage for another 8 hrs and probably let him stay out 30 mins after eating once out of the 2 days. The only time she was here was to walk and feed him, wouldn’t even call it house sitting. Still grateful about her attending to him after each 8 hr mark though.

Highly recommend! Elise took care of my pup through days of storms and rain - my dog is terrified of both - and did such a great job! The very regular pictures she sent showed a happy doggo, who seemed very relaxed and very trusting around her. When I came home, doggo was happy, well-fed, clearly well-taken care of. Moreover, Elise graciously took care of the doggo outside of the scheduled hours - both before my (changed) flight out and when my flight back was delayed. Communication with her was super smooth and super friendly. 13/10 recommend!

It’s important for me to know about any medications, feeding schedule, allergies, dietary restrictions, behavioral triggers, and any special health needs ahead of time so I can provide safe, consistent care for your pet.
