Highlights
Pet care experience
Zookeeper with five dogs herself!
Hello! I was fortunate enough to grow up in a home that always had a myriad of animals. Taking in and caring for strays was something my parents encouraged. As an adult, I adopted my five dogs (including bringing three home with me from Morocco after I finished my Peace Corps service) and three cats. I was also a foster parent with Underdog Pet Rescue for years where I had the privilege of caring for dozens of dogs and cats in my home and setting them up for a happy life with their adopters. In addition to dogs and cats, I have pet-sat for families with chickens, pot-bellied pigs, and various reptiles and amphibians. I am happy to care for any creature (only thing I am unable to do is snakes that require live feedings). I own my house and have a large, fenced-in backyard. I work from home and create my own schedule so I am easily able to accommodate most drop-in times as well as give your loved one plenty of attention and love if they’re boarding with me. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. Thank you! Lizzie (+ Bogey, Runty, Dolly, Tipsy, Nikki, Pabel, and Pushkin)

Lizzie is so great with Indy! She’s like an extra doggy mom :-)
Thanks again!! Liz is so reliable and awesome, you're amazinggggg
Elizabeth did a great job taking care of our cats. They seemed very happy under her care and we got some very cute pictures !
Lizzie was a great in-home option for us while we were away for a few nights. I wasn’t concerned about our dogs while we were away and appreciated coming home to happy dogs! Thanks, Lizzie!
Elizabeth was so great and accommodating!! Prompt communication and did a fabulous job with my cat. She provided a peace of mind while I was away.
Lizzie was the best! She shared regular updates, left my home super clean and made me feel at ease knowing my pup was in good hands! Remi seemed to have the best time with her and we’ll definitely book again!

Schedule
I work from home as well as make my own schedule. This allows me quite a bit of flexibility when it comes to serving your pet with their known and preferred routines.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home is chaotic, no doubt, with my seven beloved pets. Still, all have years of experience at being foster siblings and temporary hosts for dozens (possibly hundreds at this point) of foster pets and boarding clients over the years. I like to allow my pets as much freedom as possible as long as they both feel and are safe. Messes happen and it’s no big deal! I raise my own animals as well as care for others’ with patience, understanding, and genuine joy.

A typical day
I am all about making animals feel loved and creating safe spaces for them to live, play, grow, and thrive in. As long as they are not in any kind of danger, I am more than happy to do what they want!
