Proud dog and cat mom ☺️
Pet care experience
I grew up with a German Shepherd and 2 cats and have loved animals my entire life. When I was in high school, I used to dog-sit for coworkers and family members. When I moved out, I got a dog of my own along with 2 cats. I have fostered multiple dogs over the years, and I help numerous neighbors with their dogs and cats while they’re away. I am excited to help your pets have a loving home while you’re away!
Reviews
Appreciated Elizabeth’s last minute help. My sister needed help one Saturday as she has mobility issues and I was out of town. Unfortunately we would not rebook her. We booked for two walks. Both times she was at least 30 minutes late with no advanced notice. For the second walk, she ended up doing just a potty break which was okay because it was late. However she gave him too little time resulting in him having to go again much earlier than typically which was an issue given my sister’s mobility issues.
Thank you so much for watching our pup!
Really appreciate Elizabeth's quick response and being able to help on short notice (and well as taking Gary out on a walk in the rain)!
My pup honestly didn’t want to leave! A seasoned dog lover who knows how to care for the your dog and assure the client! 100% will be using her services again! An absolute must for pet services!

I have a friendly Australian Cattle Dog that loves other animals. I also have 2 cats that are very used to doggos being in my home. The cats have also met other cats with no issue! The apartment complex I live in has a great fenced in dog park that is also enclosed within the apartment complex’s fence. I also have a walking trail right next to my apartment that is absolutely lovely (just give me your walking requests, and I’d be happy to follow whatever schedule you operate on at home). Additionally, I have all of the supplies for bathing a dog or cat if needed (as well as nail clipping supplies, but I only feel comfortable doing so if your dog’s nails are clear). My dog is allowed on the bed and furniture, but she has also been trained to sleep off of the bed when needed (happy to follow the rules you enforce in your home). I do not have a crate for my dog, so I am okay with house-trained dogs that are not crate trained. I would need to be supplied a crate if that’s necessary for your fur kiddo.

Information Elizabeth K. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if your doggo has any special needs. Additionally, it would be helpful to know what schedule you usually keep your dog on, so I can try to keep as close to it as possible. Please let me know of any mannerisms I may need to be aware of or if there’s anything you would like to work on!
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs by practicing training tricks as well as taking them to the dog park at my complex. I also enjoy long walks on the trail near my home.

Availability
I am currently a third year law student, but I don’t let that stop me me from being an incredible dog parent! My only busy day is Monday (which is why I have it listed as unavailable), but even on those days I come home in the middle of the day to take care of my fur babies. I have an externship on Thursday and Friday, but the hours aren’t long, and I’ll make sure to follow any home-alone policies that you may have. If you need boarding on any day I have listed as unavailable, please just message me!
