The story behind the paws
Hey there! Thank you for being here. I’m Elyza – a 24-year-old animal enthusiast and proud owner of my own petsitting business based right here in Louisa, Virginia. I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and turning that passion into a career has been the most rewarding adventure of my life so far and a dream come true.
My passion for animals started very early and has only grown stronger over the years. In 2021, I had the incredible opportunity to work at a boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. That role taught me so much about animal behavior, safety, and just how important trust is between a pet and their caregiver.
Beyond dogs and cats, I’ve also had the chance to work with farm animals. So whether your crew includes chickens, horses, or your classic tail-wagging best friend, I’m confident (and excited!) to care for them all.
I’m thrilled to offer personalized petsitting and dog walking services in Louisa and the surrounding counties. Whether you're heading to work, going on vacation, or just need an extra set of paws—I mean hands!—I’m here to make sure your pets are safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away.
I started this business with heart, dedication, and a dream, and I’m so excited to watch it continue to grow. As I meet more amazing animals (and their awesome humans), I’m always learning, improving, and expanding what I offer. This is just the beginning, and I can't wait to see where the journey takes me—hopefully with your furry friend right by my side!
Xo,
Elyza
