Pets are one of life's greatest joys and it is always my honor to get to meet and love some new animals while their owners are away. It makes my stay even cozier than booking a hotel/airbnb.

Every animal is different and has a different approach to strangers and different boundaries. I basically let the set the pace and adjust to them versus them adjusting to me.

Pets are one of life's greatest joys and it is always my honor to get to meet and love some new animals while their owners are away. It makes my stay even cozier than booking a hotel/airbnb.

Every animal is different and has a different approach to strangers and different boundaries. I basically let the set the pace and adjust to them versus them adjusting to me. This has allowed me to make “friends” with plenty of shy and/or scared pets even to the surprise and joy of owners. My goal is their comfort, safety and care. Animals have personality. And just like there are grumpy people, there can be grumpy animals. I let them do their thing in peace but stay available in case they want some attention or company. But of course the cuddle bugs are my favorite. 😍

I work in technology sales remotely so I just need a stable wifi connection and preferably a monitor I can hook up to and I am all set. I actually sell background checks to large enterprise companies so you can rest assured as I had to undergo one myself too contingent upon my hire. 🧏🏻‍♀️

Entrusting me with the keys to the Kingdom and all it’s animals is such a sacred thing to me. Home is where the heart is, so I honor and hold that trust in high regard. Whatever house rules are normally applicable with owners like no shoes in the house, or areas of the house that are closed off are going to indeed be respected and collect dust so to speak. 😊🙌🏼

It also goes without saying that when I am a guest at someone's home, I clean up after myself, non-smoker, make sure the place looks the same or better than how I found it, never have any guests over and certainly am happy to send plenty of photos and videos of the pets to the vacationing owners so they can see their fur and feather babies are being spoiled.

We are so pleased with the care that Elina and James showed our home. Everything was ship-shape when we returned, and it was lovely to come back to a well-kept house. Elina sent frequent texts and photos of the garden, too. Job well done!
Lina is a wonderful and very good pet sitter and house sitter,
If I could give Elina 10 stars, I would. She was thoughtful, observant, kind, thorough, cooperative, communicative and respectful. She was sensitive to my need to see photos of my furry rascal and commented on his demeanor. I arrived home to find a spotless home and a happy cat. I will call Elina again!!
Elina was such a pleasure to meet and I am so happy to have met her. I felt completely comfortable knowing that Felix was in terrific hands while I was away. I hope that we meet again!
Elina took good care of our place and pet. She communicated with us throughout her stay, and we were relieved that she took good care of everything while we were away.
Elina treated my kitty like her own. She was independent, reliable and communicative. Would have her back!
Eline was amazing! She has a vibrant loving spirit and was perfectly communicative. Usually on vacation I worry about my house, my pets, my garden… with her I was able to trust fully and be present for my adventure - this is HUGE for me!!! I would highly recommend her and hope to see her again! Grateful 🙏🏻
