I am excited to meet your furbaby!
Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds from a young age, including dogs, cats, birds, and rodents, and more. I worked professionally for a doggy daycare for three years, during that time I worked with 30+ dogs in a yard at a time, and I was promoted to a shift lead and given medication administration permission. I have cared for dogs of all needs and sizes. I have had a passion for training dogs since I was a teenager and would be happy to (with your full permission) help you teach your pup some basics or give them a refresher course on previous training. I would also be more than happy to give extensive updates, videos, and photos, of me and pet’s time with me; as a pet parent myself I understand the anxiety that can come with leaving your fur baby with a stranger and I am more than happy to do whatever may be needed to alleviate some of that stress or worry.
Reviews
Ellie was perfect in every way. She is very thorough and definitely has the best interest of the pet that she cares for. She sent pictures and updates everyday. Will most certainly use her again.

Safety, trust & environment
I am very attentive and detail-oriented in my pet care. Any medication, dietary restrictions, or any other rules for your pet(s) and or my time in your home, as I care for your pet(s), will be strictly followed. I also love to learn about your pets likes and dislikes and all of their silly quirks. So feel free to talk my ear off about your fur baby, as every detail will help me to better care for them.
Information Eliana W. would like to know about your pet
(VERY IMPORTANT) For first-time bookings, I require a public meet and greet, if you can bring any of your fur babies along that would be very helpful but if there are timing restrictions a short one-on-one meeting is all that is required. If your dog is a strong puller on the leash, we may have to work together to work on leash behavior and start with shorter walks. I am always prepared to work with reactive dogs, if there are routes in your area that you take to avoid other dogs or people, let me know so I can make your pup and my time together as comfortable and productive as possible.
A typical day
If your dog is long lead safe, I love to play fetch with my dog using a long lead if a large yard space isn't available, and I would gladly play the same game with your pup. Something I also do with my pup is puzzle games to help keep his mind sharp. One of his favorites is scavenger hunts I hide treats in easy places to get to but he has to use his nose to find it. If you also have a high-drive dog I would be happy to do both mental and physical exercises with them. With one small caveat I can't do running for walks. But there are lots of ways to exercise a dog both mentally and physically. So if your dog has any favorites I would love to know.

Availability
I am currently taking an online course for video editing but otherwise, I have an extremely flexible schedule. I am available all weekdays and most weekends. Mid to late day would be preferred for walks but for drop-ins and in-your-home pet-sitting, I am very flexible for scheduling.
