Pet care experience
I've had the opportunity to take care of many different pets in different stages of their lives; I've dog sat in the past for older dogs that needed medical care (ex: medicated eye drops, teeth brushed etc.) and younger dogs that have needed all of their energy ran out of them! Just because your pet needs things done in a particular or special way doesn't mean they're more of a hassle!
Reviews
Elyssa had watched our pugs several times and always took good care of them. We recommend her to anyone who wants their babies well looked after!
Elyssa has been watching my dog Saddie since she was a puppy. My job often requires me to leave on trips up to two weeks long at a time and Elyssa has always done a tremendous job at keeping Saddie happy, safe, and healthy. She's gone above and beyond when dealing with the "accidents" that puppies tend to have and was very nurturing when Saddie was still very young and still being trained. She would walk and play with Saddie often throughout the day while communicating updates with me so that I always know Saddie's doing great. Both Saddie and I couldn't recommend Elyssa more!
About elyssa C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I understand that pets have their own way of communicating to us, and I make sure to look for any signs of discomfort/uneasiness in any pets that I look after. Communication with the owner is the most important aspect of pet-sitting, and I make sure to always send pictures and updates of the pet while the owner is away. The safety of the animals that I am trusted to look after is very important to me.
Information elyssa C. would like to know about your pet
If the house needs to be pet-proofed (things pushed up further on the counter, shoes put up etc.), if the pet has any allergies, how they feel about strangers in their home.
A typical day
Walks, playing with toys in the backyard, playing catch, practicing behaviors with treats, using sniff-mats, relaxing when they need to wind down, and having stimulating discussions about how cute they are!

Availability
I own two dogs that I spend most of my day with: Bandit and Roscoe. I make sure to take time out of my day to ensure that they get the most amount of play possible! This means plenty of outside time with toys, playing tug, and even when it's raining I make sure to stimulate them with some mind games. My life revolves around my pets, and I realize this is the same for many other pet parents. I will devote just as much time to your pets as I do with my own!
