“It was amazing! Adriana stayed at our place with Pelusa for ten days. We came back and Pelusa was happier than ever, in perfect shape, active, spectacular.

About: I love dogs and have had them my whole life. My dog Peanut, who’s in my profile picture with me, is my pride and joy, and I plan on taking care of him when I have my own home. My parents are out of town for work quite often, so I have cared for him on my own for extended periods of time, and I love spending time with him. I helped crate train him when he was younger as well, on top of other skills. I would love to help take care of others’ pets, and get to know everyone’s amazing animals! I’m a full time college student, and go to school on the Upper East Side in Manhattan, so I will definitely have weekday availability to anyone in the city who needs pet care. I’ll be mostly available in the afternoon, but I also have my hours available on my profile. I have one small-medium size, very friendly dog at home, and a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I would prefer to do visits in the clients home, because I do live with my family, however depending on the dog it may be possible.
About: Patience. After years of coaching children and dealing with patients, I have developed a very high patience level, lol. I care for dogs as if they were my own Im available early mornings and/or late evenings I am an early riser and would have no issues accommodating various schedules. Same goes for the evening I have a med size super friendly dog for companionship. I'm in a residential neighborhood with great dog walking areas. Plenty of space for running
About: Me and my family work for rescue dogs rock where we are constantly fostering. These dogs range from new born to seniors. I have also worked with dogs with disabilities, food aggression, separation anxiety,and other help needs dogs. I know how to administer medicine and bath dogs. I currently have two dogs of my own a Black lab and a French bull dog. I take special care to get to know your pets needs. I love. Spending quality time with dogs this includes taking them on long walks, playing with them, cuddling with them.While your away you can trust that your dog is in capable, loving hands. I will make sure your dog is not only comfortable, but also well cared for and has a lot of fun
“She did an awesome job house sitting Gatsby for a week! She sent us plenty of pictures and updates. He had a blast going on walks with her and playing fetch and tug. He has an irritation on his paw, so she made sure his cone was on when he wasn’t supervised. She fed him his medication with no problems. Highly recommend her to watch your pet if you are away on vacation!!!”

“Elizabeth is very responsible and trustworthy, especially when it comes to caring for dogs. I had to go away for the weekend and my dog has a lot of medical issues, I did not want to entrust them to just anyone. Elizabeth assured me she will be able to care for him with no problems. He unfortunately suffered a seizure under her care, she was able to handle this situation in a very calm collective manner. She called me, informed me that he suffered a seizure and stated she was currently on her way to the vet, and luckily everything turned out to be fine. The responsibility she was able to take on during a stressful event really showed me how capable she is caring for dogs. When I leave for the weekend again I will entrust her!”
