A lifetime of dog care experience
Pet care experience
I have cared for dogs my entire life—my parents own a boarding kennel that opened the year I was born. I was raised around dogs of all kinds. Friends describe me as a “dog whisperer”— I know how to communicate with dogs and put them at ease. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and care regimens.
Reviews
Elsa was good overall with our pups and cat, but unfortunately was not a good fit long term. Our pups are high energy, which is included in their profiles, but they were too much for Elsa by her own review (I think this was compounded by the fact that our youngest pup was recently neutered, which meant he was out of his normal routine for about 2 weeks). We were happy that she let us know that it wasn't a good fit, so we could find an alternative option for an upcoming trip we had already booked with her. Would recommend her services for low-energy pets, or single pet homes. Additionally, if you would like updates on your pets, make sure to ask, as they were not provided automatically.
Elsa did a great job with our more challenging pup and was a great communicator. He's typically uneasy with strangers but he warmed up quick and enjoyed his walk. Would recommend her!
Thank you, Elsa, for showing great skill and kindness to our beloved high-energy dog. We appreciate your own energetic, flexible, thoughtful and cheerful approach--all important when meeting a family and pet for the first time. You gave us complete peace of mind over two days of ball games, feeding and cuddling. Our Red One was happily exhausted each visit. We trust you will want to return!
Elsa was terrific. She was terrific about communication, worked to accommodate our schedule, and took excellent care of Midnight while we were gone. Thank you Elsa!
