About Elle

Experience: 8 yrs

Hi there! I've always been a lover of animals even at a young age, and although at first I wasn't allowed anything furry in my home, every year, every birthday, holiday and etc. I wished for and asked Santa for my very own kitty. Eventually, I was blessed to have adopted from a shelter my very own furry baby boy who was my pride and joy for more than a decade. Unfortunately in 2008, old age and feline diabetes got the best of him. I could never bring myself to get another cat because he and the bond that we shared were irreplaceable. Still, as an animal person you never lose the need to have animals in your life. To help fulfill that need since then I have both volunteered and have gotten paid jobs for my services to take care of friends', relatives', & acquaintances' pets and always treat every one as if my very own. I'm extremely familiar with cats and mostly worked with them and multiple sizes of dogs, but I also have some experience with other species such as rabbits, birds, fish, reptiles, fancy rats, even chinchillas and brought back from a beach vacation hermit crabs! I can provide scheduled or last minute services such as walking, feeding, litter box cleaning, administering medicine (including insulin), sleepovers, cleaning any house messes caused by your pet, outdoor playtime, and plenty of exercise, all with the love and care that your pet deserves and misses when you're away. I have much experience with administering both medicine in pill form and through syringe on both cats and dogs. I had to inject my own cat twice a day with insulin for many years for his feline diabetes.

Elle is very kind, a pleasure to be around and really bonds with both our children (2 toddlers and a teenager, 2cats) and us. She feels like part of our family. She is always available last minute or does her best to accommodate anything we might ask of her, whether that's helping with laundry, making meals, feeding our animals, taking the kids out for adventures to the library or parks, or even grabbing things at the grocery store. Our kids love her and so do we!
