Hi, I’m Elise! 👋

After nearly 30 years serving as a Sergeant with the NSW Police Force, I’ve swapped the police radio for tennis balls, belly rubs and wagging tails—and I couldn’t be happier.

Caring for others has always been part of who I am, and now I get to spend my days caring for some pretty amazing four-legged family members.

At Sandy Paws Pet Services, your dog isn’t just another booking—they become part of our family.

My husband, Simon, our daughter Hunter and our friendly Cavoodle, Cooper, all love welcoming new furry friends into our home. Whether your dog loves chasing a ball, playing in the backyard, curling up for cuddles on the couch or simply soaking up the sunshine, they’ll be treated with the same love and care we give our own.

We also love getting out and about, so depending on your dog’s personality and routine, their stay may include adventures to local dog-friendly parks, beach walks, neighbourhood strolls and plenty of opportunities to sniff, explore and simply enjoy being a dog. Every outing is tailored to your dog’s needs, energy levels and comfort.

I know how hard it can be leaving your best friend behind, which is why communication is so important to me. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy and having their own little holiday while you’re away.

My nearly three decades in policing taught me responsibility, reliability and trust—qualities I now bring to every family who places their beloved pet in my care.

Whether your dog is staying for one night or a longer holiday, they’ll be welcomed with open arms, endless affection and probably a few extra belly rubs.

I can’t wait to meet you and your best mate.
