Pet lover with a flexible schedule
Pet care experience
As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet sitter, I would love to spend time with your pet! In my previous city I pet sat for over seven years, and now I am looking to get started again in the Somerville/Boston area. I have lived with cats my whole life and currently have two of my own, Ferdinand and Fiona. I have experience looking after cats, dogs (of all sizes and breeds), fish, and small animals. My time spent with animals over all these years has given me the ability to listen and respond to your pet’s specific needs and wants– whether you have a lazy boy who wants cuddles on the couch, an energetic pup who loves exploring on walks, or a shy cat who prefers their own company, I am happy to work at their speed (and yours) so your pet is happy, healthy, and entertained upon your return. I also send lots of pictures!
Reviews

We came home to a happy pup and a well cared for home! We would happily have Ella house sit again.
Ella is on time, friendly, flexible, and patient with both our puppy and our fluctuating schedules. Would highly recommend Ella!
Ella was great! Very communicative and reliable. Will definitely be rebooking with Ella in the future!

A typical day
Throughout the day your pet and I will play, explore, and cuddle (if that’s their thing)! I want to keep your pet mentally and physically stimulated— that means getting some quality time in with their favorite toys, exploring and getting some fresh air walking around Boston’s lovely neighborhood parks, and spending some quality time together in the evenings.
