Experienced and active pet sitter!
Pet care experience
I’ve worked with dogs and cats for the last few years as I’ve been working on my bachelors and masters degrees. I love spending time with animals and would have a dog or cat of my own if I didn’t enjoy occasional trips as much as I do! I love being outside and work well with active pets. I’ve provided some basic medical care, such as pill administration and wound care for dogs.
Reviews
Lena is great! Our senior dog has anxiety and can struggle with pet sitters. Lena does a great job of minimizing Kona's stress. We can tell from the photos we get and from how Kona behaves when we get home that she feels more comfortable with Lena than with other sitters we've tried. She's also very communicative and leaves our house in great shape.
Oops I’m very delayed on leaving a review! Lena was excellent with our reactive dog, and elderly/fragile cat. Great communicator and completely trustworthy. Hope she can join us again soon.
Lena was a wonderful caretaker for my dog while I was away for a week. She is very responsive, sent regular photos and updates, and left my home in better condition than I gave it to her! She also was diligent in asking questions and ensuring she was able to provide the best care possible for my dog. I will very gladly have her watch my dog again!
Lena was fantastic. She came for a meet and greet, and it was very clear that she had experience caring for dogs and thought to ask about the things I forgot to mention. Lena also sent a text the day before we left confirming her arrival time. She sent one or two photos a day with an update on the girls actives. Personally I think that is just the right amount and really appreciated that. It was also confirmed that Lena was a great choice by the girls. When we arrived home they were happy to see us but also seemed unphased. As far as our home went she did a great job of taking care of it. It was exactly how we left it with the exception of the dishwasher, which she had very kindly emptied! We absolutely try to book Lena again.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I offer pet sitting services for clients in their home. I typically will try to get dogs on two long walks/dog park visits/hikes a day depending on what’s agreed on prior and the dogs’ fitness abilities. I also love hanging out with cats and playing with them during the day. Your pet can expect lots of pets and and quality time with me as a sitter.
Information Lena O. would like to know about your pet
What they like to do for exercise, how well they get along with other dogs, if they’ve had any issues with walkers in the past, and of course their favorite treat.
A typical day
I love to get good morning exercise in, maybe fetch at the park, a long walk or the dog park! Whatever your dog likes. I also like to do a good post dinner exercise.
