Pet care experience
Since I was a teenager, I've been entrusted with the care of pets belonging to friends, relatives, and neighbors. They know they can rely on me to give their furry buddies the attention they deserve. What sets me apart is my experience in administering various medications, including insulin for both dogs and cats. I've become quite skilled at handling those sometimes-tricky injections. Whether it's insulin, oral medications, or other prescribed treatments, I'll make sure your pet gets the right dosage at the right time. On top of that, I have two cats and a dog of my own who are my absolute world. Having my own pets has taught me the importance of patience, love, and understanding when it comes to providing exceptional care. When you choose me as your pet sitter, you can rest easy knowing that your pets will receive the highest level of care. From medication administration to cuddles and playtime, I'll give your furry companions all the attention and love they need. They'll be in great hands with me!
Reviews
We ended up needing a place for Rex last minute over the Thanksgiving holiday, and Elizabeth was amazing! She sent pics and videos of Rex often, and kept me updated enough that I never worried while being away!
Elizabeth was a life savor! I had last minute reached out to see if she could watch my puppy and she was able to accommodate to do so. I felt extremely comfortable leaving my girl with her! She’s super friendly and you could tell she has a genuine love for animals. She was sending me pictures throughout the day and I could tell Nova was having a great time. I would recommend Elizabeth to anyone! Thank you so much for taking great care of my crazy pup Elizabeth!
Elizabeth is very accommodating to my schedule and super easy to work with. My dog always gets excited as we approach her home to see his friends at her home so I know she treats him well.
Extremely nice, easy going and flexible. My dog had a great time.

Safety, trust & environment
When it comes to caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, trust, and happiness, whether they're in my home or in their own cozy space. For dogs, I have a fantastic fenced-in yard where they can freely explore and have a blast off-leash. It's a secure space where they can burn off their energy and have a paw-some time! If your furry friend is a small animal that prefers or requires a crate, I've got you covered. I have crates available to ensure their comfort and safety. Just let me know if you'd like them to have their own cozy space. In addition to these services, I offer drop-in visits, which means I'll swing by your place to take care of all the important stuff—feeding, bathroom breaks, and playtime included! It's a great way to ensure your pets are happy and well taken care of while you're away. Whether you need boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, doggy daycare, or dog walking, I've got you and your furry pals covered! Your pets will feel right at home during boarding or house sitting, getting all the love and attention they deserve. Doggy daycare is a fun and stimulating experience for your pups, while dog walking ensures they stay fit, healthy, and have a wag-tastic time outside. Rest assured, I'll treat your pets like family—providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment no matter where they are. You can count on me to make their experience full of tail wags, purrs, and all-around happiness!

A typical day
You can feel at ease knowing that your furry companion will receive top-notch care, whether in my home or yours.

During breaks, we'll engage in interactive playtime with games like fetch, puzzles, and training exercises. It's all about keeping them mentally and physically stimulated while I handle my tasks.
