Full time animal lover with a passion for pet care
Pet care experience
CANINE FIRST AID CERTIFIED - FULLY INSURED I have worked in the animal industry for the past 8 years as well as being a pet owner to various animals for the past 15 years. My personal and professional experience ranges from guinea pigs and rabbits, livestock, dogs and cats, reptiles and amphibians, all the way to my last job working with primates. I can guarantee with my services your favourite fury family members will get the proper love and care they deserve, assuring they get the right amount of exercise, along with lots and lots of cuddles and attention. If your fluffs like to be brushed I am more than happy to do this with them, I find grooming therapeutic. Or if you like for their coat to be maintained, this is a service I am happy to offer. My nature is friendly and caring, and I will do whatever is required to give your pets a pleasant experience. My last job before returning to the pet care industry was working as an Intern Primate Keeper at Howletts Wild Animal Park in Kent, which I completed in October 2021. Shortly after completion, I moved back home to Maidenhead to resume my passion. I have also previously completed an Animal Psychology course.
Reviews
Ella is a fun, sweet, friendly and professional dog carer. She took my 3 year old female cockapoo Lottie for lovely walks in nature and Lottie absolutely loves her. I will definitely call upon Ella in the future as she has developed a close and trusting bond with Lottie and has been absolutely reliable, punctual, and professional throughout the days. She developed quick rapport and trust with me and was a godsend for the days that I was away. Throughout the days, I am sure that Lottie went on wonderful adventures with friends rain or shine and all was shared privately with me through videos and messages with a happy smile. Thanks so much Ella and I hope you keep on sharing your great love and care for all the lucky animals and dogs you come across.
If you're looking for a dog walker look no further. Ella is amazing!! My dog is not easy by any stretch of the imagination. Ella has bent over backwards to learn what makes him tick, had him summed up on day 1 and and he adores her. She is always on time, has excellent communication skills and notices the little changes in my dog that others would miss. She clearly loves her job and is very very good at it. I am VERY fussy about who looks after my dog and I trust Ella implicitly. It's lovely to know that while I'm at work I don't have to worry at all.
We were very satisfied with the care and attention our dog and our 3 cats received from Ella. Ella clearly loves animals and our pets were provided with lots of fun, affection and exercise. She made us feel comfortable about leaving them and sent lots of regular updates including photos and videos. We would definitely use Ella’s services again!
Ella's absolutely fantastic! Not only did she do an amazing job of looking after our cat, Luna, whilst cat sitting with us for a week, she's also gone out of her way in trying to help us with a future need where another cat sitter had needed to cancel. Luna absolutely loved having Ella around, with lots of cuddles and play, and lots of photos and videos that showed us how happy she was during the week. We came back to a very happy and clearly well looked after cat. Couldn't recommend Ella enough! :)

My clients tend to comment on how comforting it is that I treat their pets as my own, and they can tell how much I love my occupation through my videos and the effort I put into getting great photos of them. This is my passion, not just my job! If you chose to use my services, I can guarantee top quality pet care, along with home security and maintenance for house sitting. With all of my services, I am happy to follow any routines required to ensure your fur babies have the best experience with me. Woofs and Waggles xxx
Information Ella G. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any breed preferences, I love all shapes and sizes and can handle many temperaments (although stronger dogs do need to have good lead etiquette on group walks for when I need to have them all on the lead to get from the car to where we are walking as I’m not the world strongest woman unfortunately, lol!) Any information you feel necessary to mention, please do.
A typical day
I will do my research into the best places to walk in your area, whether it be open fields, woodland walks, or pavement walks to file your dogs claws down. I am also very wary of the heat in the summer, I will alter my schedule to assure dog walks don’t commence at risky times of the day, while still attending to all pet’s needs. I am always equipped with treats, water, whistle for whistle trained dogs, and a mandatory first aid kit that comes on every walk with me, as well as a larger one that’s kept in my car at all times. For drop-in’s and house sitting, I am happy to do whatever your pet wants to do. Whether it be play ball in the garden, play tug of war, have tummy tickles and strokes or just to cuddle. Any activity that will bring joy to your pet’s life will bring joy to mine too. I take pride in providing great photos and videos to all my clients of their pets having a wonderful time under my care, which is a great comfort to them and always much appreciated.

I dog walk Monday - Friday, generally 1-2 walks a day raging from 2 up to 6 dogs maximum on a single walk. This means that I can only dog sit for sociable dogs who are happy to come on group walks, or on the days I have back to back walks they would be at home on their own for 5-6 hours while I’m out doing my daily walks, which is too long for most dogs. I have an estate car with a nice long boot so there is plenty of room for all the dogs with means for separation of dogs if any are nervous travellers or if I am introducing a new dog to the pack. I chose to get a car instead of a van as I know not all dogs are crate trained, so I wanted them to have the option to be in their comfort zone on a seat clipped into a seatbelt. My front passenger airbag is also always turned off for any dogs that ride shotgun!
