I'm an artist and I work at home in my pet-friendly house. My visiting pups follow me around all day: under my feet as I paint, sew, or work on my computer; in the kitchen while I cook; and leaning against me when I read or watch tv. I like to take frequent breaks to walk with my visiting pups. Since my own dog passed away, I love to 'borrow' your pet and have a furry friend again, if only temporary.

I want your visiting pup to know our house is a second home. Other than nighttime crate stays your pup will totally hang out with me.

Information Elizabeth W. would like to know about your pet
CRATE: Your pup should bring its crate to be sure he or she will be safe and secure overnight, and should I need to go on (infrequent) errands. If my schedule allows, I may make an exception in which case I charge $30/day for additional care. Do not fear that I will keep your pup in its crate, I'm a Rover-mom because I love have a dog with me! STAIRS: I live in a loft — my visiting pups should be comfortable going up and down stairs. WALKS: Visiting pups should be happy walking on a leash. I love long walks: my neighborhood has quiet streets leading down to the river — plenty of places to sniff! Most of my own dogs were high-energy so I know it's important to get out and stretch their legs. SPECIAL NEEDS: For senior pets or puppies in the process of house-training — please, let me know in advance. - Please message me for a custom quote for 2-3 dogs all from the same family. - No potty pads, belly bands, or dogs with incontinence issues. - My homeowners insurance does not permit me to host pit bulls, Staffordshire terriers, pit mixes or similar dogs.
A typical day
I try to adapt my schedule to your pup’s home timetable: getting up at their accustomed time; breakfast and/or dinner when they are used to; walks and treats on their home schedule.

Pet care experience
Lots of love, cuddles, walks, and 24/7 companionship, one dog at a time -- or two three from the same family. I’ve been a Rover Mom since 2016 and I’ve cared for pets for over 40 years: I’ve lived with up to 4 dogs at one time, kitties, parakeets, an Amazon parrot named Sam, aquarium fish, pond fish, frogs, a pet mouse, and some years ago, a pet lamb. I grew up on a farm with horses, cows, sheep and chickens. My own dogs have included English cocker spaniels, border collies, wire-haired pointers, English springers, and mixes.
Cat care experience

Reviews
Rosey, our golden retriever, starts smiling as soon as she sees Lizzie and Brad's home.--Even after being away for a year, Rosey remembers them and can't wait to see them. They are the most loving and attentive guardians anyone could ask for. I know she is happy and well taken care of whenever she visits.
Lizzie took excellent care of Phoebe and did all we requested of her. Her photos assured us of Phoebe's care and contentment. I was unsure that upon our return that Phoebe might prefer to stay with Lizzie. I highly recommend her!
Elizabeth watched our small 14 year old Yorkie for 5 days at our house and she did a great job. Brutus was happy and healthy when we returned and everything was great with the house.
Lizzie is amazing. She keeps in touch practically every day. She has a big house so our greyhound looking dog has plenty of room. And in every photo she sends Rain, our dog looks extremely contended. Thank you Lizzie for taking such good care of her so we wouldn’t have any worries!!!
