Pet care experience

A loving home while you're away 🐶

Hi there! I'm Elsa, a 32-year-old Mexican-German who has recently moved to London from Berlin. While I'm settling into the city, I'd love to spend some time caring for your dog. 🧡 I've been around dogs my whole life and have over 20 years of experience caring for them, including 13 wonderful years with my own dog, Polo. I'm comfortable looking after dogs of all sizes and personalities, including senior dogs and those who need medication or a little extra care. I know every dog is different, and that great care takes patience, flexibility, consistency, and lots of love. Sadly, Polo recently passed away, so I know just how much our dogs mean to us. Being around another dog would honestly help make this new city and new routine feel a little less lonely without him. I'll care for yours as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I have a spacious home and lovely parks nearby for walks. Haggerston Park is just a 5-minute walk from my home, London Fields is only 15 minutes away. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, or just a cosy companion, I’ll happily adapt to their routine. If they’re energetic, I’d love for them to help me explore more of London. If they’re more of a sofa-and-snuggles kind of dog, they’ll be the perfect company while I’m writing my thesis. I'd love to meet you and your furry companion!

Elsa looked after Kylie for three days and did a brilliant job. Very calm and reassuring with both the dog and me, and took all Kylie's foibles in her stride. She handled the medication and dietary restrictions with zero problems and Kylie was very chill when collected. Would definitely recommend Elsa to anyone!

The first time that I used Elsa and it went extremely well. My dog had a great connection with her and I felt very comfortable leaving them together. Will definitely use Elsa again.

Elsa was a great dog sitter for our dog, Magi. It was very easy to communicate with her, and she made sure we were always updated and felt confident Magi was in the right hands. We will definitely recommend Elsa.

Schedule

I’m currently finishing my Master’s thesis, so I spend most of my time working from home or from a nearby café. This means pet care fits very naturally into my routine, and your dog will have plenty of attention, company, and flexibility throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a safe, comfortable home with a fenced yard, and I live close to several green areas and parks for walks. I don’t live with any other dogs, so your dog would have a calm environment and my full attention. Before caring for your dog, I’ll always make sure to understand their routine, personality, needs, and any special care instructions.

A typical day

I can take your dog for 3–4 walks a day, depending on their needs and energy levels. We can also play, practise simple tricks, or work on potty training if needed. I’ll always adapt the day to your dog’s personality and routine.

Please let me know about any medication, allergies, routines, fears, or special needs your dog may have. It’s also helpful to know how they behave around other dogs and people, so I can make sure they feel safe and comfortable.
