Professional, friendly, available!
Pet care experience
Hello! I now work with Rover full time! That's right, I am here any time of any day. I was a veterinary assistant at a clinic in Lexington for just under a year and I am trained in safe animal handling and restraint if needed, and how to approach unexpected situations with confidence. I also worked at the local municipal shelter helping coordinate rescue efforts. In case of emergency I know exactly who to call and where to go to make sure your pet is always receiving the best care! *not currently taking in new daycare clients* I typically have up to eight dogs at any given time. If your dog has a "home away from home" like a crate or play pen, please bring it! It adds to the comfort and safety of everyone during your dog's stay. I do walks three times a day for fifteen minutes each, and two meals per day unless otherwise needed. Water is always available. I will use your dog's crate or play pen to help keep smaller dogs away from larger dogs or to help prevent escape when leaving or coming back through the front door. Dogs are never left alone for more than four hours at a time and even then that is a rare occurrence. All dogs are welcome on the furniture and encouraged to play safely with my own dogs after being properly introduced. I am very flexible with last minute needs and late or early pick-ups and drop-offs. I know how much a person loves their dog, and how much dogs appreciate their people. Now imagine if you could give them more! I want to help you by helping your dog get more playtime, more exercise, and more time outside doing what dogs love best - walking! A few hours at work for us seem like an eternity to dogs. With a walk and a little playtime to break up the day, your best friend will be back in your arms and happier than ever to spend time with you - while also getting the mental and physical stimulation they crave. You can put your trust in me for any need your animal has - walking, play time, drop-ins while you're on vacation, giving medications prescribed by your vet, even taking them to and from their veterinarian or groomer! I am comfortable with animals of all kinds and am not only available for walks, but any need any of your pets may have.

I have a townhouse apartment with a quiet, well established neighborhood nearby for frequent walks! My kids and pets are dog friendly and love getting to meet new faces. My reviews speak for themselves! I have met many wonderful people and their pets in the Columbia and Charleston areas since the summer of 2020. I am no stranger to dogs large or small, and love to provide a safe and comfortable place for them to stay while you are away!
Home
Information Elizabeth S. would like to know about your pet
There are a few key things I'd like to know about before we get started. Tell me your favorite thing about your dog! Tell me a little about your dog's favorite activities, and what they tend to avoid. I do not have any preferences to breeds, but I do ask that if you have a larger and more powerful breed that we work out how you would prefer them to be handled - for the comfort of your dog and the safety of everyone involved.
A typical day
We can walk at Guignard Park in West Columbia, Virginia Hylton Park in Lexington, or anywhere in between! We can play any type of game your pup is most comfortable with. My goal is to cater to your dog as an individual.
