Information Elspeth B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any fears or triggers (sudden movements, loud noises) I can be sensitive to to ensure their mental well-being.

A typical day

Outside of regular care feeding and walking, I love to play with and take dogs for a walk. Get out and sniff around. Then some quiet time back at home to ensure they are still getting love and affection while you are away.

Pets

Flexible schedule, reliable care

Pet care experience

Lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats and a horse and studying psychology in college. I believe quality time for bonding, play and affection is just as important as food/potty breaks for pet happiness. The best part of pet sitting is the quality time spent with your pet after all the business is done!

Greyson had a great time with Elspeth and her two pups. Elspeth was very accommodating with Greyson's needs and schedule and ensured he was well taken care of. We had a positive experience.
