About Elaine

Hi, I'm Elaine and have little experience in pet sitting a strangers dog I am very keen to build that up. I've grown up my whole life with dogs, hamsters and budgies around me and so when we got our own dog she was very much spoiled and loved from day one.

My parents have always had dogs so myself and my brother grew up getting to love so many dogs, my favourite dog we had was called Nero and he was a greyhound so was like a horse to me when I was small. So now when they are away on holiday or need help if they are working late ect with there 3 large dogs I look after them for them and take them walks ect.

At the moment I currently work in a school as a pupil support worker which is great because it provides me with the holidays I need when my son is off school and I'm seeking something I enjoy when off.

I am a very outdoors person and love being out in my garden which myself and my husband have completely rebuilt ourselves since moving in 9 years ago.

I am a happy outgoing person and like to push myself and like to give anything a go I'm also very hands on with stuff which is why my dream is to be my own boss one day.

If I was to have the pleasure of meeting your dog and got to pet sit them I would show nothing but respect and get to know your pet in a very gentle and friendly manner then once they got used to me we can hang out, chill in the garden and go on lovely relaxed walks or just snuggle up for some cuddles.

Me and my family live in a 3 bedroom house with fully enclosed back garden (6ft fence) with decking we built and covered with artificial grass which we have our hot tub sat on in the nice weather, we have a huge side garden which is also fully enclosed and the tall gate can only be unlocked from the inside. We also have a large front garden but we only use that for playing football with the kids as it leads straight onto our driveway which is open at the end.

We have a dog crate if your dog is used to sleeping in one but if not then anywhere your dogs is comfortable they can sleep I just don't allow dogs on my bed as our dog doesn't get to she sleeps on a large dog bed in my room.

My aim is to look after one dog maybe two if from the same home on days that I'm not working and because I get a lot of holidays from my work with it being a school then it would be when we aren't on holidays ourself ect. I can do overnights for 1 dog if they are ok to be left at home while I'm at work which I'm home for (3.30pm) and also dog walks too which I won't take any more than 1 dog as well as my own dog.

Elaine had our dog for almost a week and he really enjoyed his time away. Elaine sent through lots of pictures during his stay which were great to see.

Will happily book our dog in with Elaine again when we next go away.
