Years of experience and I LOVE it
Pet care experience
I studied animal behavior in college and have had experience working professionally and caring for animals personally for over 12 years. I help care for my mom’s 2 dogs (hi Tapi and Raven) and I have 2 cats myself (hi Onion and Syl). I have experience with both dogs and cats plus reptile care and equine care as well (but I know those do not come up often). I have also experience with kittens, adult cats, small dogs, and large dogs. I have done both overnight dog sitting before as well as drop-in visits. Plus I have learned a ton from my fiancé who has over 5 years in the vet and vet tech industry. I am comfortable giving certain medications as well depending on the type. Overall I’m just a huge animal lover looking for a little extra work to save for my honeymoon and would love to take care of your fluffy family members.
Reviews
We are so happy that we found Elly! She does a great job keeping us in the loop and we know our dog is in good hands when we are away. She is our go-to dog sitter. Thank you Elly for taking such good care of our sweet girl!
Elly was great with my cat Willow. Highly reccomend. She was very responsive and professional.
This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Elly was amazing! She provided updates and sent many pictures of our cats throughout our vacation, which made our getaway stress free and enjoyable! If you are looking for a great pet sitter, Elly is your go-to! We will 100% be booking with her again!
Elly is wonderful with my 2 cats. Friendly and caring.

Safety, trust & environment
In a client’s home I will be respectful of what each individual pet and its family member’s needs. I tend to ask a lot of questions so I can be as safe as possible regarding the pets environment, medical needs, physical, and emotional well-being. As I mentioned before, my fiancé has vet experience and even though he has taught me a ton I also know he is always on call if needed as well as any other resources the family has provided. I will treat your babies with much love and care as mine at home❤️
Information Elly F. would like to know about your pet
I would feel most comfortable knowing the pet's medical needs especially if they have special needs. Also, I would like to know the particular quirks the pet might have just so I can be conscious in case something is spooky to them or overwhelming. I would always prefer someone to let me know the full extent of their pet's needs up front and if I feel it is not something I can adequately provide to them ii will happily help set them up with someone who has different experiences than mine or a more flexible schedule.
A typical day
I like to make sure all of the pet's needs are met whether that be physical, emotional, medical, etc. I tend to walk around 4 miles a day on weekends and would love some company for the pups who need to release some energy. And as for the pups that might be on the lower energy end I love to provide cuddles or quality time with them that is a little more low-key. I also love to play fetch, tug of war, or even chase with the dogs who like the kind of thing!

Availability
I do work full time right now but I have plenty of time on evenings and weekends. I also am quite the morning person so even flexibility in the mornings before 7 am is something I’m comfortable with. Then I am available weekdays after 5 pm!. Weekends I’m wide open for house sitting, drop-ins, or plenty of walks!
