Cat Whisperer, Dog Lover
Pet care experience
I've never lived in a home without dogs or cats. I've lived with and cared for three dogs and ten cats over the last fifteen years. My current pets are three cats named Snickers, Tuna, and Twix. My family refers to me as the "Cat Whisperer" because I have a way of getting kitties to come out of their shell and feel comfortable. I enjoy meeting dogs and getting to know their unique personalities, as well. I have experience caring for puppies and I can be patient with them. I'm also a PhD Student at UVA, so I'm dedicated, conscientious, and responsible, and I take my love and care for animals just as seriously as my education. Please consider me as you search for someone to take excellent care of your pet! I will care for dogs in others' homes by sticking closely to the schedule provided by their owner and/or carrying out their owner's requests. I am patient and use positive reinforcement and praise when interacting with dogs. I will care for cats in others' homes by activating my powers as "Cat Whisperer." I know how to talk to cats in just the right coaxing tone to get them to trust me. I enjoy petting cats and spending time with them.
Reviews
Cats love her. Have used her twice so far and still again. Very dependable, sweet person and kept me updated.
Thank you so much!
Elizabeth did an amazing job taking care of our two cats. She was able to accept a last minute booking and exceeded our expectations.
We would highly recommend Elizabeth!
About Elizabeth C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always carefully read clients’ instructions for their pet’s care and clarify the details if I have questions. I’m attentive to fulfilling pets’ physical needs— food, water, etc.— and their emotional needs through affection and play time.
Information Elizabeth C. would like to know about your pet
Information that is important for me to know about a dog ahead of time is whether a dog has special needs (e.g., needs regular medication), has a medical condition, or has any type of behavioral problem (e.g., reactivity to other people or dogs when out on walks). I also need to know if cats have medical conditions and need regular medication.
A typical day
I am always interested to hear from pet owners what their pets enjoy playing with most, what activities they enjoy, or, for dogs, if there are places nearby that are more fun for the dog to walk to.

Availability
I’m currently petsitting full-time and don’t have any other work obligations. Hence my schedule is pretty open and flexible. I am able to make pet care a priority and devote as much time as is needed.
