Loving Care When You’re Not There!
Pet care experience
I have been taking care of animals my whole life, professionally for 13 years. I live in a smoke-free home with my husband and 2 small senior dogs named Tangie and Eddie. While our girl Tangie is a little skeptical of new humans at first, they are both very friendly and respectful of other pups sharing their space. I am also a proud mama to an 11 year old Labradoodle but he acts as a therapy dog for my mom and lives with her full-time now! I live in the back unit of a duplex that your fur baby can enjoy while you're away! While the yard is not gated, there is plenty of grass for on-leash play and the Chandler bike path is right across the street! I primarily work from home, so I can devote my time and attention to your pet. I meticulously follow all instructions, so the more detail I have on your dog's specific needs, the better! I am also available for daily visits, as well as daycare in my home. I have great references upon request and am very passionate about animals; I look forward to meeting your furry one!
Reviews
I’m so grateful to have found Elissa! This was my first Rover experience for dog walking service and she has definitely set the bar for all future walkers. I needed someone for 4 days in a row and she made it easy. Elissa is sweet, quick to communicate, flexible, and most importantly I felt at ease knowing my girls were in good hands. Highly recommended!
Always trustworthy, dependable and caring!!
Thank you so much! Elissa is great. Super easy to work with, extremely helpful and great communicator. Thanks, Elissa!
So kind and knowledgeable!

Safety, trust & environment
I treat your fur baby as if they were my own! There’s no such thing as too many instructions; I actually prefer having everything laid out and written notes to make sure all bases are covered! I will always be available throughout the duration of the visit/stay and reach out with any questions or concerns.
Home
Information Elissa W. would like to know about your pet
When we chat/meet, I will go over any questions you may have regarding scheduling and routine. I always keep vet and health information on me and any emergency contacts you may have. If there are any specific health concerns or behavior issues, please make note of that as well and we can assess your pet's behavior and if my home is a good match for them.
A typical day
I like to go with the flow and match your pup’s energy. The only exception is high energy pups; unfortunately I am unable to accommodate young puppies and those fur babies with extra energy and a need for rigorous activity due to an injury. I am, however, able to go on standard daily walks and play with them around the yard! Your dog's sleeping arrangement Where ever your dog sleeps comfortably! While I would love to have them on my bed with us, Tangie can get a little jealous so it’s best to bring any beds/crates/mats/etc that they are used to and they are more than welcome to share the bedroom with all of us! Time I'll spend with your dog I plan on being with your dog the majority of the time, with the exception of general daily errands and/or pet visits. I will never be away from your dogs for longer than 2-4 hours unless otherwise noted.

Availability
I work from home on a fairly flexible schedule so I am typically available for last-minute visits unless otherwise noted. Mornings tend to be a little less flexible than the afternoons or evenings, but I’m always willing to make accommodations and adjustments when I am able to.
