Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard. I have safety harnesses to take my cats on walks. I ensure their water is always full and the fountain is cleaned weekly. I have auto feeders for my cats so they never miss a mealtime if I need to be out of the house. Litter boxes are cleaned daily sometimes twice a day. We play several times every day. It’s important to keep them active to live longer.

Information Elle C. would like to know about your pet

If a dog has special needs, needs medications, or a specific schedule. Knowing their general personality around new people. If they were a rescue or if they were abused. Every dog is different. The more you know the better care you can provide.

A typical day

It all depends on the animal. Some dogs like long walks around nature. Others like short walks and seeing people. I’ve taken dogs for hikes often. I grew up outdoors so I’m also careful where I go to minimize any issues with wildlife. I love throwing the ball and playing fetch.

Must love all animals

Pet care experience

I’ve had cats and dogs through out my life. I love all animals, even snakes! I am an avid bird watcher and I provide food and water for animals who live outdoors. I’ve always loved being the caretaker for animals. I work with a few animal sanctuaries and rescues. I work with TNR programs in DC, MD, VA, and WVA. I often petsit for family and friends when they go out of town.

Elle was fantastic with our two cats! She left detailed notes on them and made sure to snap photos to keep us updated. Looking forward to having her pet sit again in the future!

Elle was excellent for some last minute coverage for our weekend in the woods. She took great care of our two high-energy rescue boys.
