Pet care experience

15+ Yrs Exp | Full-Time Loving Care

I've been working with animals for over 15 years through veterinary assisting, animal shelter volunteering, dog obedience and agility training, and caring for my own pets. I've worked with dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs and pets with medical or special needs. I'm experienced with crate training, potty training, administering oral medications, caring for anxious and fearful dogs, and maintaining consistent routines that help pets feel safe and comfortable. I believe every dog deserves individualized care, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and daily routine. Safety is always my top priority. I closely supervise pets, use positive reinforcement, understand canine body language, and create a calm, structured environment where dogs can thrive. As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I'm able to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, enrichment, and affection throughout the day. You'll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. I treat every pet like a member of my own family and strive to make their stay as stress-free, fun, and loving as possible.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any medical conditions, anxieties, or behavioral quirks before every booking so I can provide consistent, individualized care. In your home, I respect your pet's established routine and environment, helping them feel secure while you're away. I closely supervise pets, use positive reinforcement, follow all instructions carefully, and ensure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure at all times. I'm experienced administering oral medications and caring for puppies, senior pets, and dogs with special needs. During walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leash handling, avoiding unsafe situations, and adjusting our route and pace to your dog's age, energy level, and comfort. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you'll have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving the same love and attention I'd give my own.

Elizabeth does a great job taking care of our dog at her apartment. She sent us pictures of him, took him on several walks daily, and gave him lots of attention. Our dog became good friends with her dog. We will be booking with her the next time we need a dog sitter. I highly recommend her!

Top Notch! We were so appreciative of Elizabeth during our 3 day trip. She kept us updated throughout the day and sent pictures. Our usually anxious dog was so content and happy when we picked her up. A great experience!

Elizabeth was top notch. Our 2 spoiled dogs really tried her patience but not doing anything they were supposed to do. She did not give up and kept trying. I would definitely book Elizabeth again.

Elizabeth was awesome! Very informative; very sweet. Kept us totally apprised of her schedule and sent pictures of our dog daily. We arrived home to a dog very bonded to Elizabeth. We hope to use her again in the future. Thanks Elizabeth!!

Schedule

Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, including potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, medications, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I carefully schedule my day around each pet's individual needs to help maintain their normal routine and reduce stress. I have availability on weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a walk, or overnight house sitting, I strive to provide dependable, attentive care and keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages.

Before every booking, I'd love to learn as much as possible about your pet so I can provide the best care. Please let me know about their daily routine, feeding schedule, favorite activities, potty schedule, exercise needs, medications, allergies, medical conditions, fears or anxieties, behavioral quirks, and any training cues or commands they know. I also appreciate knowing how they interact with other animals and people, as well as any triggers or situations to avoid. The more I know about your pet's personality and routine, the more I can help them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I also encourage a meet-and-greet whenever possible so we can make sure we're a great fit and your pet can get to know me before their stay or visit. My goal is to provide the same level of care and attention that you would give them yourself.
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.
