"Elizabeth was truly a “dog whisperer” with our pup while we were out of town. She was reliable, dependable and very loving with our pup. We know our pup is in very capable hands with Elizabeth. "
I provide dog sitting in your own home. I'm an experienced neighborhood dog, cat, bird, snake, fish, and plant sitter! I have two dogs of my own, a Golden Retriever and a mini poodle mix. Willingly to groom, train, and more.
I have been pet sitting for as long as I've been providing childcare, as many families have pets of their own. I have also taken many side jobs watching some very sweet dogs, cats, and even birds. Furthermore, I had a cat from the age of 3 till 21, so in a way, you could say I've been taking care of pets my whole life.
