Pawsitively Professional Pet Sitter
Pet care experience
Just moved to the area. I had some great clients in Chesterfield, VA and I’m looking forward to meeting new fur babies out here! Growing up my family always had at least one dog in the house (including: labs, a cocker spaniel, and a retriever mix). I learned how to train these dogs and still have a knack with working with animals and developing a special bond with them. I now have my own fur baby and I think that makes me an even better pet sitter because I know what it’s like to be a pet parent and the feelings of anxiousness and guilt we get being away from our pets. I would describe myself as a responsible adult who loves all furry friends. Throughout the years I have had experience with a variety of dogs and also cats. Looking forward to getting to know your furry family member. Extremely, flexible time schedule at the moment. Currently available for visits, walks and in special circumstances, overnight pet sitting.
Reviews
Eliza was great! My dog was happy and well cared for.
Great service all around from Eliza. Very dependable and went above and beyond. Will use again for sure
Eliza was amazing! I was very nervous about someone else watching my dog since I only got him from the spca a few months ago. She was understanding of my nerves and took very good care of my dog.
Eliza is the Pet Sitter you can trust with your pets and in your home. She took care of our dogs while we were at work. Most of all, if we asked her to change her schedule, she was flexible with us. If you want a peace of mind experience with a pet sitter. She is the right choice. Let me add, she is kind, gentle and caring. We miss you already Eliza.

First and foremost I want to make sure your pet trusts me and we are a good fit for each other. I want to make sure we all are completely comfortable with me taking them for walks, or taking them out in the backyard etc. When on walks with my own dog I always remain completely alert and I'm constantly scanning to see if there are any threats or dangers to her. I would do the same with your dog. If your dog is crated while away, i will make sure they are safely put back in their crate before I leave.
Information Eliza S. would like to know about your pet
It's important for me to know any behaviors or tendencies your dog has that I need to be aware of and if there are any special needs as well. I will ask those questions during our first meet and greet.
A typical day
I like to think of walks as the dogs "social media" so I let me dog sniff all the smells and enjoy sending "personal messages" back. In the past I would play fetch with some of the dogs I watch and take them on decently long walks. But my favorite thing to do is just to give them plenty of pets and attention.

Availability
My schedule is currently pretty wide open. Since my husband works from home the majority of the time, I don't have to worry about my own dog. Other than some freelance graphic design work on the side, I'm happy to hop over to check on your furry family members.
