Pet care experience
Hello, fellow pet-lover! I’m a long-time pet owner, and love animals of all shapes, sizes and species. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, fish, and more. I’ve been a house/pet sitter for many families over the years, and I really enjoy making sure that animals are happy, healthy, and loved. As a librarian, I’ve also done a lot of research on different pets and breeds, and provided information and help to quite a few pet-owners. Need someone to take care of your fur-babies when you go out of town? Stay overnight to keep them calm and comfortable? Check in on and let out your four-legged friend? Go for a nice walk? Provide provisions? Freshen up their water? Spoil them a little when you aren’t able to do so? I’m the woman for the job! I have pets of my own, and always have, so pet care is an every day thing for me. I love getting to know other’s pets, too! There is plenty of love to go around! I make sure to give client’s pets extra love and attention while I’m with them, since I’m sure they are missing their family members. I watch carefully for any changes or atypical behavior, and I keep in close touch with their owners. Many, many pictures are taken, and I spoil and pamper them (within the allowed guidelines from their family, of course)! :)
Reviews
We had Elizabeth watch our kitty for the first time this weekend and it worked out well. Our kitty usually doesn’t come out for new sitters and with a little bit of coaxing she came out both times and even let her rub her belly. Elizabeth has a very sweet and caring nature. Looking forward to having her watch our little girl again in the future.
We had a very successful first time visit with Elizabeth. Our kitty was well cared for and even let Elizabeth rub her belly. That’s a good sign. Thanks Elizabeth.
Elizabeth took such wonderful care of our cats again, she pays attention to every detail and our cats always look so relaxed and happy in the photos we get. We really felt our beloved pets and our home were in good hands. Elizabeth communicates promptly and is very conscientious.Thank you!
Elizabeth was wonderful! We were so much more relaxed on our trip knowing that she was holding down the fort at our home. She was very respectful and left the house very clean and our dogs were so calm with her. She made sure to keep us posted throughout our trip so we never worried. She's definitely a great presence in the house!

Information Elizabeth N. would like to know about your pet
I definitely like to find out the dog’s likes and dislikes, but also how they like to be comforted in case of scary noises (thunder, construction, etc) or what cheers them up if they seem to be missing their family a lot. Anything medical is a given, but emotional needs are just as important!
A typical day
I like to check to see what they typically like to do with their owners, so I can keep some consistency, but I also try to find some enriching activities or a different route so they can sniff all the new sniffs. I never rush sniffing time!
