Dog lover: lots of play & snuggles!
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Elissa and I am a true dog lover! I have been around dogs since I was very young and started pet sitting in my neighborhood as a little girl. I am now a stay-at-home mom to two boys who are 5 and 3. A kid-friendly dog is a must if you are looking at our home for dog boarding :) We are a very outdoorsy and active family-we love to go for lots of walks and bike rides. We have a large fenced in backyard that is perfect for dogs. We also have an older cat whom we will gate off in the basement. If you are booking me for drop-in visits and walks there is a high possibility I will need to bring my two boys along, so please keep that in mind. We are looking forward to meeting your dog!
Reviews
I truly cannot believe how happy we are having Elissa taking care of Mia for a week she was very excited to meet her my family and I cannot believe that she adapted so well and quickly with her family too! From the moment you meet them it’s such a welcoming family. This was our first time too and honestly no regrets whatsoever trust them 100% definitely will be our dog Mia her second Family!!! Send pictures and videos i love that my dog has happy and at peace. If you’re looking for someone who can take care of your pet ELISSA IS YOUR GIRL!!!!
Please look no further - book Elissa! She was so caring and attentive with our pup. We felt so much more at ease knowing that she playing with her, being communicative, and providing feedback/photos in real time since we were nervous and new to using a service like Rover. I can assure you that I will not feel this way again, as Elissa was so sweet and will genuinely show an interest in your fur baby. There are not nice things I could say about her - 10/10 recommend :)
Elissa did a fabulous job boarding my dog. Denali can be a bit of a handful but Elissa was a rockstar! Denali clearly had a great time hanging out with the family because she was very sad to leave! Would highly recommend Elissa and would absolutely use her services again.
First time using Elissa and very impressed. She took care of my Bubba as if he was her own. She sent me numerous photos of him having a good time. 🙂 I will definitely be using her again. Thank you, Elissa!!

I will treat your dog exactly as you would! I will give you the peace of mind to know that your pet is being cared for in your absence. *Please note that our home is a split level: there are stairs going up and down in the home and the dog needs to use stairs to go potty.

Information Elissa C. would like to know about your pet
I think it's always important to know what riles a dog up and what calms them down! It's good to know how to avoid over-exciting a dog, as well as how to help them relax. Any favorite routines and activities are helpful as well. No breed preferences! I have owned a Bichon Frise, Shih Tzu, and Brussels Griffon. I have had a Golden Retriever, German Shepherd and Boxer live with me for extended periods of time.
A typical day
Some of my favorite activities are hiking trails, playing fetch, reading a book while your dog chews its favorite bone, and going to the dog park! I am open to hearing about any activities that your dog enjoys.
