Lifelong Dog Lover!
Pet care experience
Although I have no professional experience working with dogs, growing up I have owned several. As a result, I have turned into a huge dog lover, and I am very comfortable around all breeds and sizes. In addition, I have handled dogs with varying types of demeanor from some that are more nervous and submissive, as well as those who are more dominant. I treat and love every dog I meet as if they were my own. :) I freelance for work so I often will have periodic breaks throughout the day and if scheduled in advance, I could absolutely use this time to take your pup on an afternoon walk. In addition to that, I also have weekends off. I want to make sure you feel confident that your dog is properly taken care of while you're away. I would be more than happy to send a picture message of whatever your puppy and I are doing that day. I could show him/her getting ready for their walk, playing with a toy, or just lounging on the couch. :) Other languages: fluent in American Sign Language, conversational in Spanish.
Reviews
Elyse did a great job watching our cat while we were gone for a week. She was very organized and communicative, and sent plenty of pictures each day that she stopped by. She also gave Cid plenty of attention and was easy to work with
Elyse was great! She kept us updated throughout Ollie's whole stay. Elyse also was patient and handled issues that we did not expect. Prior to Ollie's stay we found out that he was terrified of thunderstorms and jet planes (of course his stay was during the Air and Water Show). She was patient, kept us updated, and tried to make him as comfortable as possible. Elyse was also flexible and worked out with our schedule well. We also received pictures throughout the day showing how Ollie was doing. Elyse was great!
Elyse did a great job watching my beagle a couple of weeks ago. She picked her up and dropped her off to me. My dog was very happy!
Elyse has taken care of my dog for the past two years while I am away at work or out of town. Unfortunately we moved away so we can no longer utilize her services. She was always super flexible with her schedule and always did her best to help me out even if it was short notice. I know she loved my dog and enjoyed being with her. I never had to worry! Thank you,Elyse, for all your help over the last couple years!

One of my priorities of course is to make sure your dog is comfortable! I'd be happy to follow any route to a favorite and familiar park, or perhaps just a walk around the neighborhood! I'd love to play games like tug of war or fetch with your dog as well! Let me know if they have a favorite toy! :)
