Highlights
Pet care experience
I’ll love your pet like my own
I grew up with my family breeding Dachshunds. So it’s safe to say I’ve been around dogs all my life. My first job was at an animal hospital. I’ve got 4 years of work experience in a clinical setting working with all types of animals. Now I’ve been in human healthcare for 20+ years. I’m comfortable with all breeds and ages of animals. I have experience with giving medications and senior care. My own dog passed away a year ago now, he was 13. He is the reason I do this. I have so much love to give but I am just not ready to get another dog of my own. I do have two cats so I would consider myself well versed in the specific needs of cats. I am just really excited to meet new fur friends and their families. I’m very trustworthy and will treat your pet like my own while in my care.

I have done several pet setting jobs where I stay at your home. It’s important to me to keep your pet comfortable and on their own routine.
Ratings and reviews
Elyssa was wonderful! I received daily pictures and updates as to how my animals were doing. And I appreciated both. It made my vacation much more relaxing, not to have to worry about my babies while I was gone. I would highly recommend Elyssa and I will be using her again.

Elyssa watched Triton for 8 nights while we were out of the state on vacation. She is incredibly kind and thoughtful towards us and our dog. We would get daily updates with photos and she was always super prompt to respond whenever I would message her. She went above and beyond to make sure that Triton got in all of his cuddles and was feeling relaxed while we were away. Knowing that Triton was in great hands really made us not stress about him at all while we were away! So grateful for her!

Alyssa took wonderful care of our cat. Took time to feed her, play with her, and give her company and TLC to keep her daily routine going while we were out of town.

Elyssa was fantastic with our elderly dogs. She was very sweet and gentle. I felt confident that my dogs were in good hands.
Elyssa did a great job! She communicated well and my fur babies were happy and healthy when I returned.



Elyssa was so patient and caring with our pup. We have had a bad experience before and we were hesitant to use Rover again, but she really changed our mind. She was willing to come by two times prior to us leaving for meet and greets and kept us updated the whole time we were gone. I felt completely at ease leaving Juniper with her!

Schedule
I work full time 7:00- 4:30 Monday - Thursday and 7- Noon on Friday. I can walk your dog in the morning or the evening. I can also stay at your house if the pet would be more comfortable with that. I’m flexible and can work with your schedule!
