I plan to be with your pet 24/7 while they are in my care unless otherwise discussed in advance. I thoroughly enjoy hosting pets and want them to feel comforted, loved, and entertained. I work part time as a nurse on days I don’t have clients booked.

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs are allowed on the couch and bed and will be provided with all the snuggling and affection they desire! They have free roam around my one bedroom home. I also have a back patio with a fire pit where we can lounge or play fetch. I’m walking distance to the beach and love taking dogs down to the beach to play or to other nearby beaches for long walks. I play dog videos (squirrels, birds, or other soothing sounds etc) during stays which many dogs seem to be enjoy.

Home

Non-smoking household
Has no pets
No children present
Dogs not allowed on bed
Dogs allowed on furniture
Potty breaks every 2-4 hours

Information Elizabeth P. would like to know about your pet

Any allergies, special health needs, how are they around other dogs, cats and people ? Are they ok being alone at all and if so for how long? How are they on leash (pulling etc). Do they tolerate being in the car for local trips?

A typical day

Long walks on beach, hiking, playing catch, dog parks (with prior approval), cuddling and lots of affection. I’m a nature person with a high walking endurance so I can happily accommodate all activity levels. If your dog has mobility or other health issues and can’t tolerate too much activity we can lounge in my back patio or snuggle in between potty breaks and shorter walks.

Active, affectionate animal lover

Pet care experience

I have many years of professional pet sitting experience in addition to growing up with pets and caring for family and friends’ animals. I am experienced with small to large breeds, as well as cats, birds and other animals. I am patient and very energetic. I love playing fetch on the beach, going on long walks, hiking, and cuddling at home. I do not currently have a dog or pet of my own so you will not need to worry about your pet getting along with other animals. If I happen to be hosting another pet, I always check with each party before accepting extra clients. I am available to walk dogs several times daily including long walks up to an hour or longer if desired. If your pet gets very dirty from the beach or a hike with me I am happy to bathe them at no additional fee and keep dog shampoo on hand

Jade’s dad is hyper protective of his dog and did not want o put Jade in a local kennel while we attempted a wedding here in Santa Cruz. Elizabeth was the perfect friend for Jade to spend the day with. She came back to us happy after her day filled with walks, play and good care. Would highly recommend Elizabeth to hang out with your dogs.

So grateful we found Elizabeth! She provided multiple walks and beach trips a day for our dog. She sent multiple pictures during the three days she was watching our dog. She did a wonderful job and we would love to have her watch our dog again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
