Safety, trust & environment

At my old place I took care of my roommate's cat, which included feeding, occasional brushing, cleaning her litter, and lots of cuddles! Although I am unable to board pets at my house, I can take care of clients pets by fulfilling all the necessities (walking, cleaning litter, feeding) and showing extra care with play and petting.

Information Elyse G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what special needs your dog may have, how they behave with other dogs, and how they behave with strangers. I am best with dogs that are well-trained/non-reactive. Thanks!

A typical day

We'll go for walks around the neighborhood and at the community park next door. I also enjoy hiking and can take your dog if that's an activity they enjoy.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Elyse and I'm your reliable and friendly pet-loving neighbor in the Dimond! I'm a "cat and dog auntie" who is here to help busy humans care for their pets by offering walks and check-ins. I work from home with pretty flexible hours so I can do check-ins and dog walking during weekdays. Hope to meet you and your pet soon!

Elyse took care of my two kittens for just under two weeks and did an amazing job. She was super reliable and communicative. The kittens seemed healthy, happy and relaxed when I got home, so it was obvious they were in good hands. Would definitely request for her help again in the future.
