Your dog's future best friend 🐾

Pet care experience

I love dogs more than anything! I own my own business and work remotely. I am grateful to still be able to spend my days with so many wonderful dogs through Rover! Whether that is my own dogs or dogs I am caring for, they bring joy to my days. I have extensive experience in my personal and professional life with dogs. I volunteer weekly at LPCHS, as the humane society's animal ambassador! I work with new arrivals to learn about their personalities and do a fun-filled photoshoot. I have spent the past 15 years boarding, house-sitting and running dog daycares. I pride myself on being intune with all dogs I surround myself with, always anticipating their behavioral and emotional needs. If you are looking for someone to love and care for your dog like you would I'm your gal. With the professional and personal experience I have, it is second nature for me to pick up on dogs needs and nature. I've spent my whole life learning about dog behavior and caring for them. I can certainly say it's my passion and reinforcing good habits is my perogative. I live in town with my three dogs, Baja, Bolo, & Basil! My partner is available to care for our dogs if I take on any overnight dog care. I love bring able to provide the care that I would want for my own dogs! Let me be your dogs new best friend 🐾

Liz was very kind and accommodating at the last minute. She updated me with photos and texts of how things were going. Thanks Liz!

Liz was great. She's a dog lover and my dog loved staying with her. I will use her again.

Liz is a fabulous dog sitter. We have an 11-year old mini Aussie who is anxious around people he doesn’t know. Liz spent time getting to know him before we left for our trip and did a great job of communicating with us during our trip. We will continue to hire Liz since she is reliable and very loving towards our furry family member.

Liz was so great! She was super flexible with pick up and drop off. I felt super great about leaving my dog with her and it made me really happy to know that she was well taken care of. Liz is extremely nice, kind, and great at taking care of pups! I am so thankful that Bailey stayed with her and I will always reach out to her first when I need someone to watch my little baby angel for me :D thanks so much liz!!!!

Information Liz M. would like to know about your pet

I just need to familiarize myself with a dog's personality and habits. With my extensive experience with dogs, I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes!

A typical day

Falls creek is my favorite place to go on hikes or up the Colorado Trail by junction creek. I also live right by Needham elementary so we go on a lot of walks around the neighborhood. In addition we go to the school in the evenings to play fetch.
