Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are at the forefront of each interaction I have with a new pet. I am detail oriented and will follow instructions on how to feed and interact with your pet with ease and accuracy. I adjust myself to a pets personality and their needs. I create a very calm and safe environment for a scared or shy pet, and I can also create a fun and active environment for an energized pet. I tend to spoil animals and be very affectionate, but I am aware of the ways to approach affection with a nervous animal and when to provide space. I am extremely attentive, and having worked with animals and having been raised with them my entire life thus far, I can pick up on the ques an animal sends. I am very respectful of pet parents' houses and clean as much as possible before they arrive back home. My main goal is to make the pet feel as comfortable and familiar as possible.
Information Elizabeth H. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the friendliness level of each dog and cat, just so I know how to approach the pet without frightening him/her, and I can build trust there. I do not have any breed preferences. I would also like to know of any health conditions and/or behavioral issues such as aggression, separation anxiety, or fear, etc., so as to properly assess the best care I can give for your fur baby!
A typical day
I love to play with any toys that your pet has, whether its tug-of-war, fetch, laser lights, or providing a stuffed animal to be torn up, those are my favorite interactions! I am mindful of when a pet wants to nap and take it easy, and I know a few good video channels that are made for animal viewing. I love to go on walks and if your dog is a fan of a dog park, I would love to take them there as well!

Pet care experience
I've been raised with dogs since I was a baby. I raised my very own dog, from a puppy, when I was 9 years old. I've pet-sit for family and friends for years, and I have been a Rover sitter for 5 years. I always put the animals first; my love and passion for pets guarantees their safety and well-being above all else. I'm a hard worker who pays attention to the wants and needs of all dogs and cats; whether it be them needing to go potty, feeling restless and wanting to play, feeling unwell, or creating a safe environment so they sleep peacefully and feel loved and protected. I worked at the Pet Hotel/Doggy Day Camp branch of PetSmart in Huntington Beach for two years. I oversaw up to 17 dogs at once, large and small, and administered walks, baths, medications, and feedings. I also oversaw up to 7 cats and did individual play times, feedings, and lots of pets! Maintaining a happy, cheerful pet is what makes me happy. Animals are wonderful creatures and should be treated as such. That's my promise to you: to always provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment for your beloved family member.

Reviews
Liz was excellent with my dog. She’s so easy going, conscientious, and thoughtful ! She always got back to me and kept me updated. My dog was very lucky to have had her watch him. Thank you !!
Great service!!!
I would give Elizabeth 10 stars if I could. She was awesome with my dog Winnie!! She was on time and super conscientious and caring. I felt really good about leaving my dog with her. I’m definitely going to use Elizabeth again and I would recommend her highly to anybody looking for a dog sitter in the Portland area!! She was truly amazing!!
Took amazing care of our cats and home. Followed all instructions and was super professional. Truly went above and beyond!
