Availability
Working a full-time remote position provides me with the flexibility to offer live-in pet and home sitting as my preferred service. This arrangement ensures that your pets receive constant care and companionship throughout the day, creating a stress-free environment for both them and you. While I may need to run home, errands, or attend appointments during evenings and weekends, rest assured that I maintain a clear schedule and prioritize the well-being of your pets. They will never be left alone for any duration that you wouldn't be aware of, ensuring their safety and comfort at all times. While drop-in care is available, I focus that service solely on clients within the Howard, Suamico, Pittsfield, Pulaski, and Chase areas to minimize travel time and maximize the quality of care I can provide. Due to the settings of this app, I am unable to add specific ranges, based on home sitting compared to drop in visits. Each drop in visit request will be reviewed and approved dependent on a case by case basis.

About Elyse S.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
When entrusted with caring for pets in their home while their owners are away, my foremost priority is to ensure their comfort and well-being by maintaining a sense of familiarity and routine. I understand the importance of listening closely to the owners' instructions and preferences, striving to replicate the same routines and habits that the pets are accustomed to when their owners are present. Whether it's meal times, exercise routines, or favorite activities, I make it a point to adhere closely to their established schedule to minimize any disruption or stress. Additionally, I am more than happy to provide small tasks around the house to keep it running smoothly in the owners' absence, such as handling mail and packages, managing garbage bins, watering plants, and tending to bird feeders. By attending to both the needs of the pets and the maintenance of the home, I strive to create a seamless and comfortable environment that mirrors the owners' presence as closely as possible.
Information Elyse S. would like to know about your pet
Ahead of caring for your beloved pets, it's crucial for me to gather as much information as possible to ensure their well-being and happiness while you're away. Please provide details on their daily routines, including feeding schedules, exercise preferences, and any medication requirements. Additionally, inform me about their behavior around other animals, any specific fears or anxieties they may have, and their favorite toys or activities. Any dietary restrictions, allergies, or health concerns are essential for me to be aware of to provide the best care possible. Furthermore, let me know about their usual response to strangers, any training commands they respond to, and how they typically communicate their needs. The more insight you can provide about your pets, the better I can tailor my care to meet their individual needs and ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for them.
A typical day
When I take care of dogs, I like to make sure they have a great time. I plan fun activities based on each dog's preferences and energy levels, like walks, hikes, or playtime in the backyard. I also enjoy playing games with them and giving them lots of attention. Overall, I aim to make dog sitting a fun and special experience for every furry friend.

Reviews
When I read the profile for Elyse, I immediately thought this is the kind of person I want caring for our dog kiddos. We had a meet and greet; she took detailed notes on all three dogs, on the household routine, and we were so impressed. Elyse is professional, experienced, caring, and kind. I’m a first time River user and consider myself extremely lucky to have found this quality of care, in our home. Elyse is an outstanding person and dog/house sitter!!
