Safety, trust & environment

I am able bodied and have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I am happy to take your pup for walks, on a quick trip to the park, or play with them in your own yard. I cat-sit for many of my friends and always make sure to spend time with them playing, grooming, or just hanging out to take sure they get a little extra TLC.

Information Elsie M. would like to know about your pet

When first meeting a new client I like to know what the dog's energy level is and how they prefer to be greeted by strangers. It's also helpful to know how they interact with new dogs we may encounter on walks, any triggers they have (pulling at squirrels, loud noises, etc), and anything else you think I should know!

A typical day

I can take all dogs for walks or play with them in your home or yard. After meeting your pup the first time, I am happy to take them on field trips to the park, a short hike, or just up the road to get a pup-cup!

Farm raised pet lover!

Pet care experience

Hi there, I'm Elsie! I currently own one cat of my own and hope to add another to my home in the next several months :) I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, horses, and an assortment of random critters. Being raised in that setting, I have experience caring for animals in all stages of life- from their rascally younger years through their last moments. I have lots of experience giving oral medications and injections if needed and am a quick learner to provide any other needs your baby might have! I would be honored to be a part of your pet's life- even just for an afternoon. I look forward to meeting you and your pet soon!

Elsie did the most wonderful job watching our cats while we were on vacation! She went above and beyond in taking care of them and keeping them entertained. I loved seeing the pictures she would send after each visit. It was such a comfort to know they were in great hands while we were away! We would absolutely book her again.

Elsie is a reliable and wonderful pet sitter! She’s very attentive to detail and a great communicator. I always feel like my two cats are in great hands when I’m out of town.

Elsie takes amazing care of my sweet Ollie whenever I’m gone! I can trust her to go over consistently, give him tons of love, and take care of whatever he needs. I would recommend Elsie to anyone needing a pet sitter :)

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
