Pet care experience
+Aside from giving TLC to our border collie, I've walked/fed/boarded my friends' dogs (corgis, golden doodles, Australian shepherds, mini aussies, chow chows, schnoodles)! +I default to positive reinforcement and have a lot of patience. I'm not one to yell at dogs and am very understanding. I am very calm under pressure but also quick-acting to resolve any issues. +I strive to be communicative and transparent as much as possible. I send photo updates throughout the day and at least 1 quick summary message on your pup's day. I always respond promptly via text or phone call during your pet's booking. +I am a medical student and a past high school teacher so I have extensive experience being a caregiver for hoomans.
Reviews
Thanks for taking good care of Aiosqui. I appreciate the updates and all the pictures. He looks like he was happy.
Elroy is fantastic. I feel so comfortable leaving Orson with him. I get great care AND great photos! Very communicative and so kind.
Elroy is FANTASTIC. He kept my dog extremely chill and happy. I got loads of pictures during the day and felt so comfortable knowing he was in good hands.
Elroy went above and beyond to give our pup a wonderful, safe, and fun experience boarding with him. We are so grateful for the care and attention he provided to her, with lots of excursions and activities. We also appreciate his great communication and frequent photos. Couldn't recommend him more highly! Thank you!

I live with my significant other in an ~800 sq ft pet-friendly apartment with a rooftop dog run and a dog wash to give your pup's paws a quick rinse on those rainy/muddy days. +Usually attach an Air Tag to their collar +Use home security cams if I am away from my apartment If I am house-sitting, I make sure to be respectful and keep the space clean. As a current medical student and prior teacher, I get regular and required criminal background checks (if that gives you some peace of mind!).

Information Elroy A. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. Any dietary restrictions? How is your pup with other dogs? Does your pup mark furniture indoors?
A typical day
I strive to keep dogs stimulated both physically and mentally. We can play a few games at home (like tug), get all the new sniffs in while walking around the neighborhood, or taking a stroll around Greenlake or Cohen park.

Availability
Daily routines include potty breaks at least 3 times daily. One long walk or outdoor activity at least once a day. On weekends, I try to take our dog on a easy trial, open field, or dog park depending on the weather. Prior Rover pups have accompanied us (with prior owner's permission of course!) to visit various off-leash parks, Whidbey Island, neighborhood trails, etc. Generally, we don't leave the pups at home alone longer than 3-4 hours. Either my partner and/or I are at home to keep them company. Especially during bookings, I am with them most of the day!
