Pet care experience

Pet sitter/walker(all pets welcome)

My first job, at age 12, was pet sitting/dog walking. I've had pets my entire life ranging from dogs and cats to rodents, fish, and reptiles. I currently have 4 cats. I have experience with older dogs and cats as well kittens and puppies. I've also spent years working in customer service so no request will be too much.

Elyse was just perfect with our new strong Bulldog. She is very pleasant and friendly. She was prompt and really understood our stubborn dog.

She treated my Winston like one of her own cats, and took care of his extra needs. I couldn’t be happier.

Elyse took our dog Buttercup last minute when our plans changed. She kept her for five days. She communicated quickly with any questions I had and sent me updates. Buttercup was very well cared for and seemed very content and comfortable when we picked her up. I would not hesitate to leave her there again. Her and her husband and son are obvious animal lovers.
