Availability

My work schedule offers flexibility, which allows me to accommodate pet visits, walks, and drop-in care throughout the week. Just as importantly, I am honest about my availability. If I cannot provide the level of care and attention your pet deserves on a particular day or for a specific request, I will communicate that upfront rather than overcommit. I believe pets thrive with consistency, patience, and dependable care. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long walk, medication administration, or extra attention due to age or medical needs, I will make sure their routine is followed and they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Clear communication and reliability are priorities for me, and I provide regular updates so owners have peace of mind knowing their pets are being well cared for.

About Elyse P.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both the pets and the property with the same respect and attention I would expect for my own. As an owner of short-term rental properties, I understand the importance of being trustworthy, detail-oriented, and respectful while in someone else's space. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, routines, house rules, and any special care needs. I pay close attention to details and enjoy getting to know each pet's personality, habits, and preferences. I am also comfortable monitoring senior pets and those with medical needs, recognizing subtle changes that may require an owner's attention. At this time, I am not accepting pets into my own home, so my services are focused on caring for pets in their familiar environment. I believe many pets are happiest and least stressed when they can remain in their own home and maintain their normal routines.

Pet care experience

Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and medical needs—from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring daily medications, mobility assistance, and close observation. I am especially comfortable caring for senior and special-needs dogs. Currently, I care for three senior dogs of my own, including a 14-year-old dog with mobility and nerve issues who requires daily assistance, a deaf senior dog who needs patience and consistency, and a blind retired hunting dog who still loves spending time outdoors. Because of my experience, I understand how important it is to notice subtle changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and overall health. I am highly detail-oriented and take pet care seriously. Whether that means following medication schedules exactly, sticking to feeding routines, monitoring activity levels, or providing updates and photos for owners, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I work hard to provide peace of mind while you're away. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have volunteered as a foster home and have experience helping dogs adjust to new environments, routines, and people. I am comfortable with shy, anxious, senior, and medically complex dogs, and I enjoy taking the time to build trust at each dog's pace. My goal is simple: to provide safe, loving, dependable care so your dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
