Safety, trust & environment

For me, pet sitting isn’t just a responsibility but a heartfelt commitment to their comfort, happiness, and well-being. When house sitting for more than 3-5 days, I also make sure your house plants are tended to, bring in your mail, take out trash and ensure your home is cared for with the same attention, so you can relax while away knowing your home is in good hands.

Information Elle T. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best possible care, I like to gather a clear picture of your pets’ routines, preferences, and house rules. Understanding their typical daily schedule—such as when they eat, walk, play, and rest—helps me maintain consistency and comfort. I also ask how they signal when they need to go outside, what kind of reward system you prefer, and any guidance on whether you’d like me to use positive reinforcement or corrective feedback. Knowing the boundaries in your home, such as where pets are allowed, as well as any restrictions on interactions between animals, ensures I can keep your pets safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away.

A typical day

Pets thrive on routine, and I make it a priority to follow the activities they’re most comfortable with, whether that’s mealtimes, walks, play, or downtime. While you’re away, I’ll also add in extra mental stimulation and attention to keep them engaged and content. This way, they stay happy, feel secure, and experience less anxiety about your absence.

Pet care experience

Each year I set out on adventures caring for pets across the U.S. On average, I spend about 2 weeks at my clients homes, making sure pet(s) feel safe, loved, and cared for while their humans are away.

Our kitties and us humans adore Elle. (Even our scaredy cat loves her.) She is professional, reliable, communicative, attentive to detail, and goes above and beyond. She is *always* our first-choice sitter. Thank you, Elle!!

Elle is truly the best! She is professional, thorough, kind and our shy chihuahua immediately loved her! She gave wonderful daily updates and went above and beyond to make us and our pup feel comfortable. So grateful to have found her, and have already booked her for our next trip!
