Who let the dogs out? That’s me! 🐾

Pet care experience

📸Check out family & client pics in my profile!📸 🐾 I won’t “hound” you for a review! All my reviews are from owners who WANT to write a review (and they are SO appreciated!!!) ❤️ 🐾 Long stay friendly 🐾 Multi-dog friendly if you have more than one pup! 🐾 Fully fenced yard, about an acre 🐾 Long history of dog sitting 🐾 Clean, dog friendly house (dog hair is a constant battle - Sorry Roombas! but I clean a LOT) please forgive the temporary chaos, currently remodeling. 🔨 🐾 Military training, TDY & deployment long stays 🐾 For my cat clients I am able to do 1-2 daily visits to feed, water and clean litter boxes so they can stay home and you have peace of mind! 🐾 Experience with dogs of all ages, temperaments and sizes. I’ve had <10 lbs and >200 lbs visitors! 🐾 Have administered shots and oral medications. 🐾 My dogs are all friendly and socialized 🐾 I’m willing to do meet and greets, you should feel comfortable leaving your dogs in my care! 🐾 Add a bath and your pooch will come home smelling fresh and clean! 🛁 🐾 You’ll definitely get regular photos and videos of your pups while you’re away 📸 🐾 I know how stressful it is to be away from your fur babies and will do everything in my power to show you they’re in good hands! 🐶 Thanks for reading this far! 🐶 Started doing Rover spring of 2021 in North Pole, AK but I’ve owned dogs and have been pet sitting my whole life. I have a large, dog friendly house on almost 3 acres in a great neighborhood in Wasilla. I am Alaskan, born and raised and grew up in Chugiak! Animals have always been a passion of mine and dog sitting has been such a blessing to meet local families and get to know some amazing pups! I currently have 5 pups ages 2-7. Over the years I have fostered many dogs for different local rescues and fostered puppies (biggest litter was five 6 week old puppies!) for the animal shelter. That was the biggest struggle but they all left housebroken with basic training skills. 🙌🏻 This has led to a couple of foster fails and 1 rescue Dane. 😂 My dogs are so great at helping dogs socialize, play and yet they’re also the best at taking naps!

Elysia was AWESOME! She sent us tons of pictures and videos updating us throughout the stay and it was so nice! She took great care of our dog and he had so much fun playing with all of the other dogs and got along great with all of them!

Elysia has been the best dog sitter I could ask for. She’s super flexible with drop off and pick up times, takes a ton of pictures and videos of my pup and gives her so much love! She’s great about communicating and taking into consideration any dogs needs. I’d recommend any person looking for a dog sitter to Elysia!

Information Elysia W. would like to know about your pet

Just need to know what your pet needs ahead of time. Thorough instructions and warnings of any behavioral or medical issues are appreciated. I have a large toy basket and an array of treats so we can definitely find something of their liking!

A typical day

My fully fenced yard allows pups to run and play all day! That way they’re nice and tired when it’s time for bedtime inside, which is usually one big doggie pile! Haha

I work from home so the pups get plenty of time to roam and play! I just moved into a large house to give my dogs a ton of room for activities. I strive to have all pups out and about whenever possible - not stuck in kennels! They should feel like a part of the family while they’re here.
