About: I've taken care of pets since I was about age ten. I see animals as part of the family as my pets have been some of my greatest companions over the years. As an educator, I am home full time for the summer months until early August. Once school begins, I am available late afternoons and evenings. I have two crates, one small for cats and one midsize for dogs. I can crate your dog if needed. I have a small room that they can sleep in to give them privacy. I enjoy walking pets and caring for them daily.

About: I have owned all kinds of pets my whole life! Cats, dogs, guinea pigs, etc… besides that, I’ve also volunteered at many animal shelters! I frequently pet sit for friends and family with all kinds of furry family members! I’m currently in school, and entering my sophomore year! I’m home for the summer, and looking for something I know I would love to do! I have very open availability, and I’m willing to come to you! Even though I’d love to bring your furry friends home with me, I have to put the well being of my doggy first in her home. Regardless, I’ve learned to read animals fairly well, and I’m able to give them all of my attention, or all the space- whatever they need! At home, we have one German Shepherd who does everything with me! From going on walks, to going to get a coffee, she never leaves my sight! I am completely prepared to give the same love to any animal!!

“Elizabeth took excellent care of our cats while we were on vacation. They were even played with each day. We will be using this service again. It’s nice to remove the worry of how your pets will be cared for during the absence. Thank you!!!”

The best option is to have them at the client’s home, animals are always comfortable when at home and a place they know! It’s already scary that a stranger is in there house but much better than a scary car ride into a new house!
