Pet care experience

I run with dogs!

I've taken care of all types of dogs with all energy levels, and have been regularly dog sitting for friends and family for the last decade, and love doing it! I'm a very active person and am willing to take dogs on long walks, hikes or even runs, but also have a fenced in yard for dogs that prefer to stay close to home. I have a soft spot for older dogs, as I was the primary caregiver for my childhood dog that lived to be 16 years old. I've also gained a ton of experience with shy dogs during covid, as I foster failed with my current dog, who was a completely feral, terrified street dog. She is now a sweet pet who loves when other dogs come to visit!

Elyse was exceptional! From our initial meeting, I felt completely at ease leaving Gunner in her care. She maintained excellent communication throughout our trip and regularly shared updates and photos, which were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Elyse to anyone in need of a reliable and attentive dog sitter.

Our dog had a great experience with Elyse and her sweet puppy. We are very happy with his care and would highly recommend to anyone.

Elyse was wonderful with Linus. She was very patient and understanding of the challenge of a newly home rescue dog. I would highly recommend Elyse to anyone needing a sitter or Walker. Thanks Elyse!

Another seamless and lovely stay over for Tarot. Elyse is super easy to communicate with, and always on top of things. My dog was cozily waiting for me upon my return, as if I had never left. Thank you again, Elyse!

Elyse clearly loves dogs and is experienced. She was very patient w/ me as I gave her an abundance of detail about his likes and dislikes. Charlie clearly loved her big back yard and her comfy bed.
