Pet care experience

Caring for All Creatures!

Lifelong animal lover and advocate with a soft spot for creatures great and small! With experience volunteering at multiple animal shelters and wildlife rescues, caring for animals has always been close to my heart. Whether furry, feathered, or anything in between, I love making animals feel safe, happy, and loved.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet as if they were my own and take the time to understand their individual needs, routines, and personalities. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to animal body language and behavior, respect each pet's boundaries, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. I'm also happy to follow specific care instructions, maintain feeding and medication schedules, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you're away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously.

Elyse has been an animal lover and dedicated caregiver for as long as I have known her. She has generously devoted her time to animal shelters and, more recently, to the community zoo in Big Bear, California. Along with her husband, she is the proud parent of three rescued pets: Grover, their beloved dog, and two kittens they recently adopted. Elyse is compassionate, dependable, and truly committed to the well-being of animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring person to look after their fur babies.

Elyse is absolutely a responsible and loving pet caregiver. I can’t recommend her enough. She has grown up with pets all her life and regularly donates her time to volunteering at the local pet shelter. You will love her and so will your fur babies.
