Trusted Pet Care with a Heart 💖

Hi there! I’m Elle — an artist, crafter, and lifelong animal lover with over 12 years of active pet care experience through Rover. In that time I’ve had the joy of caring for pets of all kinds — from energetic puppies and curious kittens to senior pets needing extra patience and support. For years, I specialized in boarding pets in my home, which gave me a deep understanding of animal behavior, routines, and comfort needs. I’m now shifting my focus to in-home house and pet sitting, allowing your pets to stay relaxed in their familiar environment while you’re away. I’m comfortable with all sizes and temperaments, experienced in medication administration (oral and topical), and attentive to each pet’s unique needs and personality. My approach is calm, consistent, and rooted in positive reinforcement and communication. Special skills: Administering medications and managing special diets Experienced with anxious or rescue pets Excellent communication — I provide frequent updates and photos House care: package and mail collection, plant watering, and general home security BEFORE BOOKING I like to schedule a meet-and-greet to make sure its a good fit your pets.

Safety, trust & environment

When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the home and pets with the same respect and attention I’d give my own. I keep things clean, organized, and secure. I always follow your care instructions closely — from feeding schedules to alarm codes — and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to maintain your pets’ routines while keeping your home in excellent condition. I also communicate regularly so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.

House Sitting • Jul 06, 2026

Elle took such wonderful care of my home and is very helpful and easy to work with. Elle knows my dog well but there is a new cat in the house, and the two of them don’t get along very well - but that didn’t stop Elle from making sure both of them had all they needed and more! The cat took to her right away and was cuddling on the couch with Elle within a day. I was so grateful to be able to go away knowing they were both in good hands with her. She made sure they each had their special dietary needs met, and also cleaned my home so nicely before leaving :)

Elle was such a professional, she asked plenty of questions during our consultation that I knew I was leaving my two pups in good hands. Our senior dog has mobility issues and she took great care of him as well as our other dog. We received updates and they both look well cared for. She also took excellent care of the house while on our trip. Would definitely book her again.

Happy to have Elle back house-sitting with Daisy! It was easy to feel super confident leaving Elle with the home, and, Daisy loved it so much she tried to refuse to let Elle leave at the end of their three days together. Elle is a wonderful friend to dogs :)

My dog has loved boarding will Elle for several years, but this was our first time with house-sitting. Elle was a great house guest! Everything was left super clean, nicer than it started. Elle took the time to listen to listen to all my instructions through a long tour of the house on the first day. She made sure to send me updates that evening after I nervously left my dog behind, as well as throughout the stay, of the fun things they were doing together.

Elle took such great care of our two dogs, cat, and house! She came through with last-minute pet-sitting and we feel so lucky to have found Elle! She sent regular updates with photos and videos, kept our pets safe and happy, and left our house in immaculate condition (probably cleaner than when she arrived). She cared for our dog who has separation anxiety and took extra steps to ensure he was happy. She also played with our active cat to keep him happy.

Schedule

Pet care has been a core part of my life for over a decade, and I continue to prioritize it in my weekly routine. I currently offer house and pet sitting, and my flexible schedule allows me to maintain your pets’ normal routines — morning walks, meal times, play sessions, and evening cuddles. Whether you’re traveling for a weekend or several weeks, I make sure your pets receive consistent companionship and care.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Elle can host up to 1 pet per night
To provide the best care possible, I’d love to know: Daily routine (meal times, walk times, bedtime) Any medications or special health needs Triggers or anxieties (e.g., thunderstorms, vacuum, other dogs) Favorite activities, toys, or comfort items House rules (furniture, off-leash, etc.) The more I know about your pet’s habits and preferences, the better I can make them feel at ease while you’re away!
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.
