Energetic with Gentle Caring Touch!
Pet care experience
I have been pet sitting ever since I was 12 years old and first discovered my true love for animals. I was a hard worker and had my own "business" caring for all of the neighborhood dogs! I have always had a gentle touch with animals and am convinced they can read my nurturing, positive energy. I worked in an animal hospital for several years after I graduated college, so your dog is in great hands with me! I am comfortable administering medicine and/or shots, or just making sure he/she is getting the proper nutrition he/she needs. I am comfortable caring for any size dog, from the smallest to the largest breeds. I have always been very athletic and love spending as much time as possible outdoors with your pup! I do not currently have any dogs of my own (for now at least until as my lease allows) so I will always be sure to treat your pets as my own and give them the loving care they need.
Reviews
Liz stayed at my house to watch my dog for 9 days while I was out of town. She is very conscientious, communicates well, and has excellent judgement. While the thought of hiring a stranger to live in your house can be scary, Liz is a true professional who went above and beyond. She promptly arranged a meet and greet when I initially made the booking, and then stopped by a few days before the trip to interact with my dog one more time in my presence before I left. She asked very thoughtful questions, and went out of her way to befriend my shy dog. While I was gone, Liz took excellent care of my dog, sent lots of cute photos and text updates, and treated my house as if it were her own. I returned to a clean house and happy dog. Oh, and Liz is now my dog's new best friend. Don't hesitate to book Liz!
Elizabeth was a godsend as we were in a pinch to find someone last minute. She met our dog beforehand and was both warm and thorough during the meet and greet. We ran into quite the snafu when the key we left her didn't work, but she was flexible, understanding and had a great sense of humor through it all. Once she got in, she communicated throughout her stay, respecting our home and providing such wonderful love and care for our pup. Will certainly use her again. Thanks, Elizabeth!
We were so lucky that Liz was available to watch our pups again! She is really great with our quirky, old dogs. They were relaxed and happy when we got home and our house was in perfect shape, as usual! I’m sure they can’t wait to have you over again!
Elizabeth was great. She provided updates about Jack, sent photos and a video and, most importantly, took care of Jack. When I returned home, my apartment was in order and Jack was happy and healthy. I would definitely recommend her.
