Hi, I'm Elissa! I live in DelRay with my husband, Tim, and our two Golden Retrievers, Titus and Kona. I love animals and always have. I grew up always having a cat (but desperately wanted a dog). I often took care of neighbor's and friend's pets when they were out of town, and have been doing so since I was about 10 years old. I cannot live without an animal to care for. I've tried it, and it was miserable! I love meeting new people and their animals. I’m very good with all types of sizes, training levels, and personalities. No pet leaves my sight when outside, and I don't allow "bad" behavior (aka behaviors you have trained/are training your dog not to do). I will always protect and love your fur baby! Besides basic care like walks, feeding and potty breaks, I’m comfortable with administering meds (my own dog takes pills twice a day, every day), following a special diet, etc. Long walks, belly rubs, and giving treats are also my expertise! I’m a very active person, I do Crossfit and Triathlons, so even if your dog tends to pull or likes speed I can keep up. I am always flexible and happy to accommodate when I can. My schedule is flexible and I can usually provide care on short notice. Oh and PS: Real Estate is my main hustle! Feel free to ask me anything!
